Dear Life, I simply hate how you made 'death'

"You have been my friend. That in itself is a tremendous thing.
I wove webs for you because I liked you. After all,
what's life anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die.
A spider's life can't help being something of a mess,
with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you,
perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows
anyone's life can stand a little of that."
---E.B White ("Charlotte's Webb")





Okay, today is the third anniversry (6th March) of my father's death. I was crying the night before because I feel so empty. I was closer to my dad than mum and that will never change (sorry mum). I have to take my mind off the whole thing between my dad's death and not having a strong (I think it's a weak relationship) with mum and deciding not really to have that strong relationship due to personal reasons. Then on Sunday is mum's and dad's wedding anniversery. I need to think something else than actually crying
my head off.




I guess I will leave you with this "Life is like an hourglass. Eventually, everything hits the bottom and all you have to do is wait it out until someone comes along and turns it around."

Signing off,

Dear immune system

Dear immune system,

I would like to thank you for giving me nearly a week of torture with uncontrollable sneezing and coughing, re-occuring headaches, a throat for 10 - 15 hours of pain whenever I swallowed or drank something and making me look like a diseased panda (no offense to panda enthusiasts or pandas themselves).

Thank you for also missing three school days in which could be more entertaining than watching old episodes of Dr Phil, Ellen and Oprah or me procrastinating on where or no to write a practice essay about satire in Animal Farm. I am now feeling like I am going to die from this bored and pain that you made me go through.

I hope you fail me again in the near future,
Doom

Friendship is love

"We wil be friends,
as long as stars twinkle in the sky,
as long as angles are there up high,
'till oceans run dry,
and till the day I die."
Friendship is suppose to be heaven. But we do fight as friends, that's why I sort of think it's part of a healthy friendship if we fight, it makes us stronger and test us to the limits.
I use to be friends in kindergarten (Kindergarten 2000) and I was friends with this girl called Katie Stewart (I think that was her last name). It's been a decade since I last saw her and I still remember one memory I asked her during class how old she was. She was going to turn five while others were going to turn six (we have Pre-Kindergarten at my school and normally students in Pre-Kindergarten were turning five). I haven't been in contact with her, she moved somewhere I think and I only remember meeting her once before, a year later when she came to visit us for a day, but after that, we lost track and we never been in contact since then. Did anyone have a similar story to this?

The quote is the same as the picture up the top. I put this on a package for my pen pal's package for her birthday. The quote to me is saying that we will be friends for a long time (or at least forever).
