Space and Privacy

Not really sure what have been happening to me lately (again)... I crave for lots of space and privacy... and I am becoming a little anti-social as I wouldn't pick up anyone's phone call at all!? ...I just don't feel like talking to anyone... I just want my own space... I just wish I had more time to lie on the bed and read my books or doodle on my drawing pad, and I'll be happy...

A dear friend called my mobile at 1030pm last night. I didn't pick it up because I felt asleep reading a book. Then my house phone rang. It was late. (I thought we are not meant to call anyone's house phone especially when it was way past 9pm at night?) ...Anyway, just as I unwillingly dragged myself out of bed and ran to the phone, it stopped ringing?! ...#$%$%... Jumped back into bed and my mobile phone rang again... Picked up the call, and my dear friend was asking me where the papaya is STOKER cos he wanted to go there with his friend!? ...Hmm...

I have to admit that I was quite annoyed... Why? ...Well, it wasn't the FIRST time he asked me how to get there... It wasn't the first time that he called me up LATE just to ask me where STOKER is and he has been there a few times! ...I'm sure you'd get annoyed too if a person kept asking you the same question again and again, yet they couldn't be bothered remember the answer! ...I mean, if you like the place so much, why is it so hard for you to remember?

Also, the second thing was the fact that he couldn't reach me on my mobile, and rang my home phone (not remembering I have told him not to ring my home phone after 10pm!), and rang my mobile again... I mean, if this was an urgent matter, I would understand... but to TRACK me down like that just to find out where Stoker is, was unacceptable!! ...

I had another friend who is ever WORST! ...He tried to reach me on my mobile (I was somewhere and couldn't hear my mobile ringing and didn't pick up)... so he rang my home phone... and then he rang my (then) boyfriend's phone... just to ask me some unimportant matter... HELLO!? ...You don't ring the whole world to track someone down JUST TO ask something that is not so urgent at all...

I felt that my privacy and my space have been infringed... I felt like I am only the one they remember to call when they needed something at that very moment... I felt like they don't understand that people do need some space sometimes, and sometimes there's a reason people do not pick up their phone calls, and that's when they should KNOW it's better to SMS rather than keep calling EVERY numbers that they could think of to reach that someone...

Hmm... I winged a lot tonight... I think I want my space and my privacy lately, that's why all these blah-blah... Normally, I wouldn't think it's a big deal... Hmmph...

(Kev, i still love you my dear friend... hehee... just need to let it out cos I've been feeling quite weird lately)

Ignoring sms?! ...What if they ring your mobile phone and home phone billion of times? ...

I still love you too Mandy, even after you have left this world. I can't stop thinking about you and what we have been through together. I wished things turned out according to how we planned it, and we'd have been together "till death do us part".

I never realise the treasure I had in you, until I let you go and hurt you. Please forgive me.

You will always have a special place in my heart.
