Nothing lasts forever…
Just opened the dragonicaSEA website, found out that it game service is terminating. Felt a sudden shock when I read that; I always took it as a given that all my items, characters etc, everything that I had spent countless of hours to obtain, would always be there if I ever wanted to return to it. But no. It’s all gone. This realisation struck me really hard, nothing really lasts forever. They can disappear at any moment, without the slightest notice. You turn away for a second and they’re gone. You don’t even notice that they are missing until one day, just like today, you suddenly realise that everything that you had believed in, everything that you had taken for granted is missing. Poof. Gone. Now I can’t even download the game client to try to relieve some of the memories that I had. That is really saddening. In life, such moments will happen. Things disappear and never return. Regrets will always be there. They might be huge, or they might be small. It all depends on whether you’ve gotten over it. For Dragonica, the regret isn’t that huge, for certainly it does not mean a lot to me any more, after all it is merely a game. However, what if its my friends, my family, precious people who I take for granted, people who do everything for me, whether I know it or not. I wouldn’t know what to do if I lost them, lost everything. Really don’t want that to happen. I think I typed this somewhere before, or read it somewhere, but a life full of regrets is really a very sad life. I don’t want mine to be that way.

All of a sudden
Was too tired for tuition today, eye was feeling funny. Ended up going home. ironically, despite that, all of a sudden I decided to go for a walk/run. haven’t done so in a really really long time, much less alone. I always had the company of someone, Louis, or more recently my classmates and everyone else, cousins, brother, everyone really. Point is, I really, really haven’t been alone in a very very long time.
And all of a sudden, I am. These feelings of loneliness, everything that I’d kept within; feelings that I thought had been forgotten or eliminated, things that I had gotten over all suddenly came back. Who knew that a run could be so effective? The LRT tracks reminded me of Yew tee, how we would enjoy a night running there, walking, talking, eating and basically just enjoying ourselves. Reminded me of unrequited love, an affection that was purely one sided, my motivation for everything last year. It was good while it lasted, but seems like things don’t fade so easily. I would have thought that ‘liking’ someone else would make me forget, but it all goes back to you some how. Forgotten for so long, short glimpses along the corridor, they meant nothing for a while, until Monday, when you expressed disappointment in my actions, like I had betrayed all your expectations of me. made me feel really terrible, not really terrible but guilty to say the least. I never knew that you had such expectations for me, I really never knew.. Thinking about it, I should have. Maybe done something. but your life seemed so full, so complete, there was and still is little way for me to enter it. Not that I really want to, the time for that is really long past; I had my chance and I missed it. didn’t have the courage and confidence then, still don’t now. I wanted to be a person you could be proud of, but seems like things aren’t meant to be. don’t really regret it though, just that I feel really lonely at times. like now. if things could change, I would change them, but they won’t. so I guess I’ll just try to continue on my route to be a better person. Just not only for you. You were the spark, and for that, I thank you. Hope I don’t feel like this anymore -
