i am going through a difficult phase right now.
no, it's not my period. though good guess.

unfortunately, it's not something that anybody who reads this can help me with.
so i know that you [readers] will offer to help with, and trust me, i really wish you could.
but your help is simply something that i can't accept.

hell, i don't even know why i'm typing this here to begin with.
it just feels slightly better to get it out into the void of xanga,
and i suppose it's just part of my monthly update. who knows?

despite the difficulty of what i have to deal with, i know at the end it'll all be worth it.
except that right now, it almost seems too difficult to bear and i don't know if i can make it.
sometimes, my body screams no, and my mind screams yes,
but my mind is hesitant when its screaming back.

anyhow, i won't go into any more detail. hope life is treating you all well.
even though sometimes it seems like that never happens.

i have no tolerance for weakness.
my respect for somebody just plummets when they buckle under pressure.

maintaining a strong exterior even when the interior feels the walls closing in is where i am most impressed.
the best way to handle a crumbling situation is to accept what's happening around you, and adapt to them.
breaking down and losing sight of your goals is never effective, even counter productive.
even against the tide, you keep pressing on.

in other news, i really wish someone would throw me a surprise birthday party.
though it pains me to say that my wish didnt involve me having to subtly hint at it.

you think that this would be common knowledge.
but no. i had no idea. ah well, live and learn.

NANOWRIMO!

apparently lillian is just that cool that i'm doing NANOWRIMO!
and apparently i am obsessed with their funky slogan... NANOWRIMO!

national novel writing month. why it's in november is totally beyond me.
but i figure i have nothing better to do in the following month than... thanksgiving and black friday.
actually that was a lie. i do have better things to do... one of which includes NANOWRIMO!

that means no xanga. for one month. shock shock.
but i shall be spurred on by the ginormous writing power of my fellow NANOWRIMO-er
together we shall trudge through the cyber space of writing and... hopefully not die.

i'm too shy to ask, i'm too proud to lose.
but sooner or later, i've gotta choose.

go pratchett.

somewhere back there, i left my worries all behind.
my problems fell out of the back of my mind.

go rain.

interesting observation i made today as i came back from yet another matlab recitation, though more useful than the actual lecture, which is, in college, considered the norm. anyhow, the observation had to do with the rain (much like the title). it wasnt the rain itself that got my attention, but the response to the rain by the passerby that piqued my interest.

i understand the natural reaction is to get out of the rain as soon as possible, but how you go about that is another matter entirely. those with umbrellas didnt even notice the rain and continued their normal pace. those who had either hoods or hats also gave very little heed to the rain (poor neglected rain). however, those who had no protection to the rain besides the hair on their heads (or none in one special case) were moving at a much quicker pace than normal, and some were even running.

when you think about it, the people in that last bundle really should've saved their energy and instead, walk at a slower pace. after all, when comparing somebody who is walking and somebody who is running in the rain, granted the person running in the rain will arrive at his/her destination quicker, he/she will also run into more raindrops (oh no, some physics here) in the x-direction as well as getting raindrops still in the y-direction at the expense of totally missing out on the beauty of rain. all-in-all, running is not as effective as it seems.

meanwhile, the smarter human being taking just a little bit of time out of a possibly very busy schedule can soak up the goodness out of the rain (pun intended) and just let the cares wash away (hi pun) for just a moment... until the world comes hurling back in full throttle. most of you probably have almost no idea what i'm talking about lest you, like me, go outside purposely running and skipping and splashing (my version of dancing) in the rain, excuse me, the pouring ran.

so how about taking a minute... or an hour and just... give it a try. you know, get to know the rain.
i would love to hear about it.

it's not a slow dance, this modern romance.
feels like we've already waited too long.

go physics.

you're not a land mine, you're not a gold mine.
no, you're not mine at all.

i'm bringing sexy back.

... what does that even mean?!

nothing ventured nothing gained.

interesting... if you're viewing this using the firefox browser, you see a different strip.
the strip that i intended to post can be viewed by using internet explorer.
it might be a bit inconvenient... sorry in advance.

i'll go find it now and post it here.
