Today was an activity packed day, which is a complete 180 from the past month or so. Replaced my schedule with fun stuff, like 3D movie, picnic and cell (not what I would've classified as fun once, but hey, I'm getting there).

It's not exactly a picnic when it's raining such that you've to hide in a shelter. Or when the wind is so weak you've to run 100m races by yourself back and forth to keep the kite up in the air. The monkeys at Peirce Reservoir were entertaining, though. Mommy and child monkey staring forlornly. Adult males leaping right out of nowhere to grab Mama's styrofoam rice packet right from behind her back. And Sa-ee's antics with the umbrella to scare them off. Think we provided enough laughter for other passers-by seeking shade too.

Doing good enough. Skies are sufficiently bright and blue again, the hollowness is manageable.

It is still a huge disappointment and such a shame to see how things have deteriorated. From the best of intentions of getting close, trusting and depending on one another for happiness, to this high school facade of cliques. Where that bond that made you respect each other and keep each others dreams, wishes, and secrets is gone. What's left is the bitching and the badmouthing to the friends you would have considered of no value in comparison to the person once. Like one year of being each others' everything never really happened.

You've become a stranger. I can't reconcile you with the person I once trusted, maybe because that was the only version of you I knew. I only know the guy who loved me.

What to do - life's like that.
