A million little pieces

The following is an excerpt from the book 'A million little pieces' by James Frey.

I don't want to be alone. I have never asked to be alone. I fucking hate it. I hate that I have no one to talk to. I hate that I have no one to call, I hate that I have no one to hold my hand, hug me, tell me that everything is going to be all right. I hate that I have no one to share my hopes and my dreams with. I hate that I no longer have any hopes or dreams, I hate that when I cream, and I scream bloody murder, that I am screaming into emptiness. I hate that there is no one to hear my scream and that there is no one to help me learn how to stop screaming. I hate that what I have turned to in my loneliness lives in a pipe or a bottle. I hate that what I have turned to in my loneliness is killing me, has already killed me, or will kill me soon. I hate that I will die alone. I will die alone in my horror.

Just to share a little about the author James Frey and the book 'A Million Little Pieces'. James Frey was an alcoholic as well as an drug addict. The book is about his six weeks in rehab. He was at the age of 23 at that time. He had been an alcoholic for ten years and a crack addict for three years.

I have not finished reading the whole book yet. From what I had read so far, I really like the book. You can feel the desolation, the loneliness, his pain.

When I was reading that paragraph, I can totally relate to what the author is trying to express. Not that I am an alcoholic nor am I addicted to drugs. No one wants to be alone. When we are happy, we want to be able to share this happiness to our family and friends. When we are sad, we want our family and friends to share our sadness and burden as well. Like the saying goes, a burden shared, is a burden halved.

I have been feeling quite emotional for these past few nights. Must be those damn Gregorian chants that I have been listening to. It helps me relax my mind though. Bought a wardrobe and it arrive last night. Had been busy cleaning up my room. Whew!!!! so much dust everywhere.

Gonna watch Surfs up tonite. Hope its nice. Been hoping to watch Alone, heard that its a very very scary movie.....suits me just fine

There have been so many instances where I came by my blog and I want to blog about so many things in my life. But there were also as many instances where I just gave up and kept my thoughts to myself. I am 34 years old in 2017 and soon I will be another year older. I am getting more jaded every year because of the things that I have seen. I also feel aimless. I feel as if I am meant to do something more than this. I do not want to wake up and go to work Monday to Friday and so happy when its Friday and becoming depressed when its Sunday (coz the next day would be Monday) It's not like I want to be a millionaire or something like that. Even though money is still important (Hey, I still gotta eat, cant very well grow my own food), it no longer hold the same position as compared to a few years ago. I do not care very much for status as well. Its all so fleeting. After being married in 2013, I am still childless at the moment. Its not by design but I dun mind it all that m...

Unveiling

I was so excited yesterday. Someone called and told me that it was ready for pick up. What is ready for pick up? What makes me so excited? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . What else would make me so excited other than cars? Woo Hoo!!!!! Subaru Impreze STi !!!! How cool is that? Bi fetched me yesterday around 5pm to pick up the car. I could not sit still at home. Was feeling so excited. STi has 3 settings, Intelligence, Sport and Sport Sharp. I read an article online saying that the Intelligence mode makes the STi crawls like a snail. Hmmmm, their exact words not mine. So Bi and me took the car out for a short drive. We were kinda disappointed with the power. It was then we realised that the setting was at intelligence. OMG!!!! When we changed the settings to Sport Sharp, the power is unbelievable. Its like 3 times faster and more powerful. We hit 180 km/h in less than 2 minutes (mite be less if not for those few turtles on the road). In the past S15 will need quite some time to hit 16...

You are not welcome!

WTF? MCB! I just received a call from my mom asking me why did I blog about the AUD placement in my blog. Apparently, someone from my mom side of the family was complaining about how I put this piece of news in the internet. Why jealous? I did not disclose the amount that I had bought. I know who was it that complained. But I rather not put it here. Its my personal business. If you are not keen to read it, then don't com here. No one ask you to read what I had blog. IT IS PERSONAL GET IT? ITS MY BLOG AND I'LL BLOG ABOUT WHATEVER I WANT AND WHENEVER I WANT. THE WAY I SEE IT, ITS MY LIFE, I'LL LIVE IT THE WAY I WANT IT TO AS LONG AS I DID NOT HURT ANYONE. SO BACK OFF!!!!!!!!!!!!! With all the things that are happening in my life now, I don't need someone from my extended family harassing me about what I should blog (or not blog). Talk about me all you want behind my back, I am not the one with things to hide. I have always been quite open with my life. You wanna hide, hid...
