It has come to an end, finally. Though I wouldn't say that I'm relieved. It is after all a departure of a loved one. Someone close, someone...

My sister said something during the cremation ceremony that made a little sense, even though I didn't agree. Life does seem pointless (to certain extend). And you really can't hold on to anything (permanently at least). Nothing is actually timeless, there is no true forever after. There's always an expiry date, which is in fact the beauty of it.

It's been a tiresome week. And I've been hound by many, constantly. The saving grace is perhaps the purchase of my very own, brand new, remarkable, Canon 500D - saving grace seems inappropriate come to think of it.

I'm hooked to a new book (old rather), Pandora by Anne Rice. I've always liked vampire novels. I like the way the story seems to bring me back in time, back to ancient Rome. Strangely, she seemingly likes to base ancient in Rome.

Which reminds me, I want to, I will be, I've forcefully insisted... to visit Rome, Italy. I have to, I must! But first, I'll be visiting Malaysia (no confirmation on that just quite yet) then Japan! Oh sweet Japan. The lights, the cultures... the toys? Yes, the toys. Toys is the purpose of the visit. Not mine but my partners.

Anne Rice, before I lose myself in thoughts. What amusing me most about her books, back since Interview with the Vampire, is the way she doesn't seem to care that from point-to-point she seems to drift a little too deeply into her own thoughts. It feels as though you're reading a novel written by an author but a journal written by the character him/herself.

This is the kind of book, if given the option, I would want to write.

As the night falls deeper and darker, I'm left with three options (all of which I'm to be late for):

1. Rush down to school for class
2. Rush down to butter Factory for the HTC Tattoo event
3. Sleep

I'm exhausted if not already clearly said.

PS: The worst has happened. Phone call. 3 to a group. So it has been decided. I shall attend school.
