Had quite a weekend! Had a fab weekend which includes having my ankle sprained and lots of talks with friends and lazing around at Dell's house. Ely was there till Saturday, but Peloy and me stayed till Sunday just so we could be Dell's convenient excuse. But, hey, it was good to stay and besides I couldn't walk that well yet (cos of the said ankle). Got to meet interesting peepol too. hahaha

Being in Windangers Anonymous is actually getting to be a good kind of therapy, I think. Or maybe I mean a good kind of escape. But it's good for my mental health, so tha's that.

I mean, I don't wanna see my brother at all. My mom kinda laughed when I complained in 3 text messages, but they said they understood me. So there. Maybe I'm not so paranoid after all, thinking that my brother's demands are actually reasonable and is part of my duty as a sister.

this seems to fit here...

You poor, depressed child. A rain cloud seems to
follow you everywhere. The worst has always got
to happen doesn't it? Life is miserable.

I have no other wish than to sit in a corner and hide then maybe figure out what I'm doing with my life at the same time.

Read this old interview of The Comics Journal of Art Spiegelman. (from Peloy's book The New Comics) This is not thesis-related at all. Then again I haven't been thinking "thesis" for some time now.

JOURNAL: Why was RAW#1 "The Graphix Magazine of Postponed Suicides"? A postponed suicide is just a stall till suicide,isn't it? That doesn't sound very hopeful at all...
SPIEGELMAN: Let me answer that with a quote from NIetzsche: "The thought of suicide is a great consolation: with the help of it one has got through many a bad night." To think about suicide isn't necessarily to commit suicide. it's to acknowledge the possibility and to acknowledge the precariousness of being alive and to affirm it. Every moment that you don't commit suicide is an affirmation. It's deciding to live some more. The reason I think it's actually an optimistic notion is the fact that...well, that quote that's in the inside front cover by Cioran, "A book is a postponed suicide," to me implies an act of faith has been committed. Which is, to create a work of art, a book, a painting, a poem, a magazine, a comics strip, whatever and that the work is in itself a justification for remaining alive. In that sense, at least, I felt I was provisionally optimistic.


I guess that entire quote is more of a mood thing.

Met with my bro, got to wash his clothes, got P500 for my trouble. Well, it didn't exactly happen like that, but that's the gist of it. No scary offers yet of living with him, thank badness.

something's a wee bit wrong with my blog template.I've done tried to update all the links and shit but it remains the same. What could be wrong?

sigh.
