elaboration
i'm as confused as you are, sir.
something happens here.
something strange and vague and ambiguous and unpredictable and bizarre and odd and bipolar.

I am CURRENTLY:
- Reading Catch-22
- Playing Gang Garrison 2
- Listening to the Red Alert 2 soundtrack (because it was completely orgasmic)
- Wondering if I'm either being overly optimistic or pessimistic
- Still using Daily Drop Caps
- Watching mikelat play through Mass Effect 2 and Bioshock 2. He's the most awesome thing I've ever found, I swear.

how bizarre.
It could be
kwokwy, but it's actually
VIVIAN!
I am
17, and I try to do art, which sometimes fail in spectacular, self-destructive ways!
Other times, it works out relatively fine, and I am happy for the moment!
I like thinking. Thinking is fun, especially if you're listening to music. You know, nice music.
Being close to someone works pretty good as well, I guess.

i am dazed and confused!
This is where i put all my un-personal items out on display.
If you break anything, you will be forced to pay for it!
Prices start from an ice cream cone cupcake and counting. :)

the circus is in town
Thursday, August 20, 2009 6:31 PM
the big reveal.
THE CIRCUS IS COMING.
did you see the latest? the circus -
the circus, it's coming?
are you sure? it can't be happening, not to our town.
as true as your heart leads you, it's really happening.
our town, how will it cope? it's never had this happen before.
oh?
well, rather, it's been a long time. is it a good circus?
anticipation, hopes, wishes.
coming, coming, soon.
won't you visit the new sweet shop, ma? the circus is coming to town.
no, not tonight, dear. the circus is arriving.
fevered prayers, whispered dreams, childish longing.
lying awake in bed, wondering how it'll be, will it be as good as anticipated?
what if it isn't what i hoped it would be?
don't be so pessimistic, it's the circus. the circus always delivers.
i sure hope so. it will, won't it?
unanswered questions, fatigue sets in, queries grate on the trained ears.
pitch perfect mania of town, folie à deux, imposing or simultaneous.
the parents are getting concerned.
it's all rather silly, isn't it? the circus; it isn't even that special.
yes, the children are getting too excited.
they aren't listening to us. what should we do?
we wait it out. they'll get over it.
uncertainty, doubt, ambiguity.
what if they don't listen to us? what if the whole town goes mad?
burning, burning, burning desire.
why won't the circus come? why can't it come sooner?
why must it tease us so? why can't it make us happy and come?
it'll be so fun, the whole of us, at the circus, if only it came.
will it come soon?
can't it come earlier?
insecurity of the individual, epidemic, community spread.
rumours have spread, things have been said, no one is sure.
i heard the circus may be going to another town!
aaah! honestly?
paranoia, paranoia, the town is burning.
HEADLINE: WHAT IF THE CIRCUS MOVES AWAY?
i sure hope they don't, the kids will be so heartbroken.
will you be sad, if the circus moves away?
i... i'm not sure.
hope, blind hope, blind optimism.
perhaps it was all a lie, perhaps it was just a voice in the wind, perhaps the circus is indeed coming to town.
is the circus really coming to town? really? really really?
we can hope.
anticipation only serves to heighten the appetite.
THE CIRCUS IS IN TOWN.
relief, sweet relief, the end of longing and suffering.
look, ma, look at those funny men with the long legs. are they daddy long legs, ma?
no, you silly boy, those are stilts.
oh. i thought they were deformed.
pa! pa! look at that clown juggle ten eggs! how funny he is!
you'll get bored of it, soon, honey.
lions! how exciting! will they eat the trainer? i hope they do!
yes, that would be interesting.
and before you know it, the circus is gone.
was it as fun as you remembered?
large hadron collider
it's all slipping past me
I have no idea what to put in here for the time being, but we will deal with it!
Why doesn't everything turn out the way we want it to?
It won't be as fun, of course, but still.
