A day of reckoning

The thing about trying to be strong all the time is that you'll eventually end up alone. People come to see you as being all secure and confident that they never think of you in terms of needing support. And when you do need help, no one is there.

Today, with the paper due tomorrow and all, I had a nervous breakdown. The paper that was supposed to be so interesting and exciting for me is half written and very badly at that. I'm going to try asking for an extension.

It isn't until you hit rock bottom that you know who your real friends are. Thanks to Murni who had to listen to my sob stories all over again, Nic for taking me out to the movies and Nao who took a bus all the way here just coz you knew I was feeling like this. Also to Sarah, thanks for trying to help. And I am sorry for saying over and over again that all my friends are in Malaysia. It was very insensitive of me. One day soon, I'll wake up from all this and appreciate you guys more than I have so far.
