I have been staring out of my window for the past 30mins, watching people having fun with firecrackers, lighting them up and squealing with excitement as their rockets explode with a starburst effect. Even the little kids are holding the sparklers in their hands yelling ‘Hey guete pou moi!’ (which means ‘Hey look at mine!’)
I feel oddly detached from it all, detached from this world.
It’s still 23:14. In slightly less than one hour everyone(or rather, almost everyone) will let off their firecrackers, (more noise and air pollution… ) welcoming the new year. Sure, I liked firecrackers when I was a kid but not anymore. Now I’m only a spectator.
New Year’s resolution?None.
Happy New Year everyone!

The other day, I was feeling so sad and her mere ‘感情是不能勉强的’ (gan qing shi bu neng mian qiang de) brought a smile to my face. My youngest sister is more like me than I had thought. Sometimes when I want to say something, I just can’t find the right words in Creole and just say it in Chinese.
We share secrets , clothes, advice,almost everything…. She is 4 years younger than me but she takes after me, unlike my other sister. I won’t always be there for her, especially if I go abroad to study. I hope that she grows up to become a fine woman in the future.

A medley of feelings…
sadness… hurt… anger… frustration

Do what you wanna do. I no longer care. Just stay away from me.

It’s a scorcher today.. My boots were off by the time i reached mum’s car.. and once back home, I wriggled out of my trousers on the stairs (good thing no one saw me!) and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower.
Lately, the weather has been very too hot,esp. in Port Louis. I feel a bit dizzy right now.

I got my digital camera yesterday, thanks to Wes who helped me buy in Singapore.
It’s a Canon IXUS 400. I read many reviews online and finally chose this camera. I know that new models will come out soon but I don’t feel like waiting. I only have a manual camera and it’s really a hassle for me to upload pics online because I have to scan the pics first and then use Painr Shop Pro or Photoshop to resize. Digital cameras are more convenient.

I got a new haircut last week . I wasn’t aiming for a specific hairstyle. I just told the hairdresser to do whatever she wanted with my hair. She chopped off about 15cms. ah well,it’s only hair. It will grow back. Still, my hair looks ‘okay’.
I was telling a friend about this the other day. I always cut my hair when I’m reaching a new stage in my life. Right now, I indeed feel like I’ve reached a new stage in my life. My high school life has ended and who knows what awaits me in the future.

I hate having my little bubble of happiness burst within minutes. I hate being me. I hate being unable to say the right thing. What is the ‘right thing’ to say anyway? I hate running into such situations.
Why me? Why now?
I would like to be able to think clearly but right now I’m just too confused. This is all too sudden and unexpected…
