alert! alert!

you know, being alone is pretty nice. i can't understand why some people hate being alone.

they say, to live a happy life, you have to learn to forgive and forget. i can manage the forgiving part, but never will i be able to forget the sins of people, especially those who have wronged me. don't anyone dare say that it's a waste of precious time in life to hold grudges. if you do, you'll be in my bad books for a very long time, eventhough you're doing that out of good will. yes, i will try my very best to forgive him, but i can never stop disliking him. you want my respect? earn it. i don't give it out freely, even if you're family.

great news!! my bother's coming home! gosh, it's been 3 years since i last saw him. he came home for 2 weeks after being abroad for 2 years. yeah, he hasn't been home for 5 years plus. it's going to be weird to have him home for 7 months. we haven't spoken for 3 years, not even through the phone, though he does correspond with my parents once in a blue moon through e-mail. it's like having a distant relative staying with you. you know you're family, but somehow you feel like he's more of a stranger and there'll be awkwardness. for sure. still, i love my bro  =)  lemme hear you go "awwwww....."
