"When a girl builds walls around her, it's not because she wants to avoid a man, nor is it because she wants to protect herself. She does it to find someone, who would be man enough to break these walls... Just to be with her."

Read this quote somewhere, and well, I think it's pretty meaningful to me. So with this fresh thought in my mind, I'm going to move ahead.

I don't want it to end this way.

Don't leave me hanging here.

Please.

(Did you forget
That I was even alive
Did you forget
Everything we ever had
Did you forget
Did you forget
About me?)

Have you noticed how distant we have been, how far we have drifted?

Do you know how I feel about it, feeling like I'm trapped outside, trying so hard to get in? You have the key, but you won't unlock the door; Why?

I've waited, and I still am, but the longer this silence ensues, the more harm it will do. It will not test what we have, it will destroy what we thought we had.

Why am I writing this, I wonder, when there's hardly a chance that you'll read it? Maybe you do, but will you respond to it?

I feel like an idiot, but still.

I'll continue to be one, still holding onto the promises, though I know that they've already been long forgotten, broken.

My life is like a bottle of soft drink, shaken too hard, too vigorously, and opened all at once, such that the contents pretty much explode out.

Now, why can't I ever learn not to bottle up all that unwanted gas, and instead, let it out bit by bit?

I SAILED LASER RADIAL TODAY.
It was super awesome. :D

For one, it's hell more stable that a byte, and you feel that within moments of getting onto the boat. So I was happily hiking and working on my angle (which was super good cause I managed to point really high), and I sheeted in all the way, something I can't do on a byte at the same wind conditions as today. Sure, when I first went on it, the wind was like, 2 knots, but it picked up to 7 knots in awhile. At 7 knots on a byte, I have to be super careful already, cause it's super unstable for me, and once it hits 8 knots, I have to depower all my lines. ): The wind did hit 8 knots today, and when it did, I couldn't handle already. Rawr.


Ah well, guess I should train hard and get better, yep!

Funny how a rainbow can make me smile, when it's a smile turned upside down.

Continued of sorts from the previous post. And yes, I wrote the both poems "rainbow" and "doesn't it pain you" myself.

But I just continued standing
right at my window

clinging on
to that little bit of hope and faith
wishing so dearly
to perhaps
elude reality

Slowly
the sky began to darken
and my rainbow began to fade

While I watched it disappear
watched the sky fade to grey
I couldn't help but tear
and wonder

why did such a pretty rainbow
have to disappear?
