"It is not the critic who counts, not the man who points out how the strong man stumbled, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by the dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions and spends himself in a worthy course; who at the best, knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who, at worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly; so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat."

wat am i to do?

It's a saturday..i haf plans..but no one to carry out with..oh well...loneliness sometimes really stinks..but hey..i've been like tt for a long long long long time..can't complain, can i? It's raining now..so blardy heavily..it's like..e heart sinks together with e rain.. *gosh i think i am posting a sad post again* Anyway..talking abt e rain..i was walking ard J8 yesterday, and i saw this little quote on a bookmark..it's really quite meaningful:



"If u want to see the Rainbow, u must first embrace the Rain.."



Another one reads:



"Life is full of tides and waves..when one comes..u can choose to Catch a Ride on it..or get Overwhelmed by it.."



Reading this two..made me think back on e happenings of last sem..indeed,i had so wanted to see a rainbow..so i embraced e rain..indeed,tides and waves came..and i rode on em..however..as e situation unfolded, e rain stopped, e rainbow appeared..but, it juz wasn't mine to see..i was still riding on e waves..only to get overwhelmed by em.. the knowledge of getting no returns, really hurts..but wat can i do? Right now..i am juz doing wat lil' stuff i can..and if possible, to be able to catch juz a glimpse of tt rainbow..wld suffice my already torn and tattered soul..



As each day passes, there still exists not one day where i do not think of her..how long more will this last before i get to see e rainbow i so desire?or before ANOTHER rainbow appears?



Question is: Wld i wan the other rainbow?
