Mom 2nd admission
[info]chermaine_cf

It's cny day 2 and my fear for nth-gd-will-happen-during-festivals came knocking on my door. Right to my doorstep.

Supposed to hav a gambling session with cousins n frens. I made my cousins travelled all the way from jurong. And it's all Been cancelled.

Mom don't feel well since aftn. Her chest has been uncomfortable. She chose not to say it. Until when I called her in the evening. She said she feeling better after the emergency pill. I got more n more uneasy as I tink these might b a symptom for heart attack. I decided to bring her to hospital for a check. She was reluctant to go at 1st. Despite me n my sis calling her to persuade. Well, SMS her made wonders. She agreed n alr dressed up to hospital when my uncle n I came to fetch her.

Results seemed okay but a blood test was taken which results require at least 8 hours to Process.. So I decided to admit her to rest in ward for the night rather than staying up in A&E observation ward which is v noisy..

I left her there to wait as I was not allowed to stay by her side. I hope I can see her tmr. See her well n energetic.

I haven had my dinner. Thot of asking frens to eat but I realized I can't face them at all. I don't have the strength to act normal. I'm tired.

past memories
[info]chermaine_cf


was doing my spring cleaning. i can recall how i complained my cleaning situation to u last yr. all seem as it happened ystd.

i dreamt abt a nasty situation rgding u.
prolly tt reflected how affected i was by u.

it just made me feel so wasted. tt things have to come to this stage eventually.

im out of love. a love for a friend.
Losing a friend is alr unbearable and i cant imagine losing a partner or even family.

i am trying to cope. trying to stay clear from u. "Trying to be close to u again" unfortunately has been fading off as time passes when there is no news from the other end.

i tried, in fact over tried. I was impatient for ans n solutions. Now as my impatience dies off, nth remains i guess other than memories.

the fond memories and the 'everything under the sun' talks were a thing of the past.

Let me have the strength to overcome.

its karma time i guess
[info]chermaine_cf
was browsing thru my past journal entries. and i came across this part.

毕竟朋友始终只是朋友
只能默默的守在一旁
无法无时无刻的陪伴
彼此也有各自的空间
所以最终只得靠自己

i told this to a fren once cos i needed space as i felt suffocative tt time. i regretted.

now, i tink this part fitted nicely on me too.
its really karma. wad i did to ppl, it comes back in another way.

i need to tone down in my social life.
i thot i can handle them well, but ended up im just living in denial all along.
i cant juggle, ended up making myself trapped and tired.

Drawing boundaries
[info]chermaine_cf

Had a talk with st. Yeah.. No doubt she always gives me the most frank comments which I really appreciate.

I'm too attentive, caring/understanding and too easy available at their beck and call.

Giving them a chance to take me for granted without knowing.

Having a longer probation period of new frens is gd. Otherwise, I'll suffer instead. Gonna take things slow n easy. Drawing boundaries of the extent of efforts n 'goodness' I shld provide for new frens. If not, history will repeat itself.

Trying to b good ain't easy. Good for others but stress for me. Be it mentally or physically, it's draining me at times. I just need to adjust n fine tune myself slowly..

Perhaps I hav been too concerned abt u, until u think it's pressurizing. I'm sorry n I'll give u alot of space to breathe. I shall not bug on the fact that I'm getting out of ur life since things hav alr came to this stage. I'll jus b patient and hope time will fade out the stress I've once given u. If that's wad u wan, I'll oblige u.

Me time
[info]chermaine_cf

Was out the whole day by myself. Coloring my hair took up half of a day. Then I went to town to do my last min grabbing of cny clothes. Din meet up with anyone to shop cos it's an 'emergency' state when I haven bought any clothes for new year. I gotta b fast pace, grab n go without thinking or waiting for frens..

Surprisingly, I kinda like it this way. The "me myself n I" time. Then I realized its been really a long long time since I had this lone ranger in action.. I'm always packed with appointments n work. Basically no time being alone.. This time round No need to care n worry of other companions when I'm out, it's really v shiok! Doing things at my own pace;)
Ystd and today shall be it! My own personal time and space;))

I've changed.... For the better:)
[info]chermaine_cf

Din realized I was so self centred in the past. Doing things ignoring abt how others feel, rejecting ppl and hurt ppl without knowing how to wrap up in a tactful manner. Impatience, blunt, taking things for granted and not standing by frens were the past me.

I'm really glad I've become a more approachable person, improving all aspects of my characters n behaviours. Learning mistakes from my past experience, well I guess it's sth gd out from this.

Wrking once in a blue moon in other trade is good as well. Even though it's still working but more refresh n treating it as a holiday trip:) might b physically draining on me but I guess its a matter of adaption. Things r much simpler in this trade. I'll still part time in future even if i have gotten a full time job too.

I'm learning to ignore now, ignoring things which don't really need my persistence n r draining my energy. I'm learning to say no n reject unnecessary requests.

I'm learning to let go. Be it the past, or the present.

High maintenance friends
[info]chermaine_cf

Well actually friendships need to b maintained. Jus like cars n houses, need to spend time to maintain.

Prolly a diff between living n non-living things are non-living stuffs need money to maintain while living stuffs need mental contributions.

Maintaining friends like taking initiatives, tolerate, filtering sensitive words, spend time to hang out. Mostly are taxing mentally.

Well it depends on how high the level of maintenance for individuals.

Michelle dropped a v comforting n secure msg to me upon knowing my situation. I was really v touched, wad she said was practical n warm. This is when I realized that having frens like her, it's really my luck. I have no regrets. Then it occurred to me tt, wad I heard from mic, I had said it before to my frens. I din expected I wld provide such comfort to friends like this. Hopefully they felt the same way after hearing these from me. Comfort, secure and at ease.

In the middle of the nite, those tt responded to u almost immediately. U know tt they r under ur emergency contact list. U r safe with them. Its really v sweet of Hanlin to stayed up to accompany, chatting with me tru watsapp, making sure that I don't over tink or imagine wildly.. I din know she was on cough med. resisting the drowsiness effect of med to stay up with me. It feels really good to have friends tt dote n b there for me. I always Thot I'm the only one doing these.

its over
[info]chermaine_cf
perhaps my patience has deteriorated recently or u have been too isolated..
nth i did seem to reach u, touch u or to make u regain back the way u treated me previously.

i m really hurt by u.

and i dont hav the strength to carry on n maintain from my side.
i missed the days we wld jus crap over nth, whined n complained the surroundings.. things were so simple n i really have no idea why things will end up like this. Why? is it all bcos of the rs issue u shared with me before and got a bad feedback.. tts why can easily form up a barrier?

i understand there are some spaces ought to be given btwn friends. ask yourself, i have already stopped texting u that frequent, i dont share any gossips or happening with u as i scare u r bz with your thots, not expecting u to reply to any of my msgs, keeping the distance u wish to have. tell me wad can i do more now? i alr lower my expectations by a lot a lot. i really have no idea why i used to dote u so much, thats why u able to take my presence for granted without knowing? i m tired of hearing "its your prob not mine", then why not to try to fix it? it might be hard i know but r u on the right track?

its kinda sad when i m not the one whom u will turn to anymore when u need an outlet. wad can i do? since its not controlled by me anw.

im really tired of the way u pushed me away n for the umpteen times i tried holding on n pull u back again.

forgive me. im really tired this time round. im sorry.
