Moving On

Moving on
We are moving out of our house this weekend. Am I sad? Yes, coz it means having to say goodbye to the space I learned to love, the place where I cooked my “experimental dishes” to the delight of my roommates, and the place where everyone is free to move around. Am I happy? Yes, coz it means living in a new (cleaner) house, having no “contract” to think about and not feeling guilty when I have to move away (meaning, I won’t burden my roommates with the huge rental expense). From six beautiful ladies sharing a house (and the responsibilities that goes with it), we are now down to three. But for how long???

Moving
My application is now moving! THE email came last Tuesday. I need to undergo a physical examination soon. I hope the Doc will give me a clean bill of health so that I can move on with my application.

Moving???
Just today, I came across the lyrics of Gabrielle’s Out of Reach. How fitting some lines of this song to my current state of mind.
"Out Of Reach"
Knew the signs
Wasn't right
I was stupid for a while
Swept away by you
And now I feel like a fool
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
Catch myself
From despair
I could drown
If I stay here
Keeping busy everyday
I know I will be OK
But I was
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach, so far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
So much hurt,
So much pain
Takes a while
To regain
What is lost inside
And I hope that in time,
You'll be out of my mind

And I'll be over you
But now I'm
So confused,
My heart's bruised
Was I ever loved by you?
Out of reach,
So far
I never had your heart
Out of reach,
Couldn't see
We were never
Meant to be
Out of reach,
So far
You never gave your heart
In my reach, I can see
There's a life out there
For me

And finally, not anymore related to Moving
It takes 14 muscles to smile and 43 to frown. But what about hugs, how many muscles do you need to flex your arms and envelope someone with it? Surely, not that much to cause you muscle pains after, right?

A friend of mine has a “daily hugging habit”. She makes it a point to hug 20 people everyday and it never fails to brighten up a gloomy day.

What I love about hugs is that it makes me feel secure and eases the worry, fear and all the negative feelings I have.

Oh crap, I need a hug today.

Palangga,

I'm sorry for what happened. I won't do it again. Your hugs are very comforting. ;-)
