10:15pm - Fireflies & Divine... WOWOW!!! Vivid neon colours glowing in the uv lights... the cheerful multicoloured glow sticks twirling... the glowinthe dark balls suspended in soft blue cloth... the swish swish swish of them soft clothed flags...
Surreal multicoloured figures... a real dreamscape. Loved it.

10:45pm - said hi to Twin who says : wat only u?? so much for support...
i sense a twinge of disappointment... dang. his last performance with fireflies. sad.
Bought myself a handmade practice poi by the fireflies...
Received SMS : too tired blah blah...
Oh watever -- it's not the 1st time i've been stood up, let down.... frell it.

11:15pm - BUS 77, on the way home. Mixed feelings... accomplishment of gan-ing to both performances. Abit guilty not catching his earlier fire one... Disappointed in pp once again. Am i the only one putting in the effort all the time, for all the pp i care about. Why can't i get to do the things that i want for once and why can't u accompany me? Even my gifts, u dun even wanna get wat i want...? Oh forget it. There's no way of changing anyone, why bother. Just fated to always be the one who runs around, making the effort, doing the things.

For once, just once, why can't someone else do it.
I'm tired of being taken for granted.

11:45pm - "Becos of u".. in my earphones… now I know why the fad… cool nite breeze, good song… brings out and unwraps poi… swish swish swish all the way home.
Pepper come… oh wimpy love, not keen for a midnite walk. Sigh….swish swish poi in the front garden

12:45am - ONline... yeah the pp i expect online are. Surprise is Twiisti. And as i expected and was waiting for... Berz popped up. Din dare ask her how was the comp... tried sending her a french song but Twiisti says may hv virus so had to abort. oh well.
Nite nite everyone -- sleep well.
There's always the next competition. And the next life to look fwd to...
No more running around anyone else.
