Brightness

Was it coincident that every time I meet up with her after each week of entrapment in camp, the very first sight of her was made bright daylight.

With her there was never a dim moment in my life, and the moment of seeing her had the effect on my brain much like sunglasses being remove from the eyes.

Everything went a notch brighter, yet upon meeting her also marks the impending moment where entrapment is out to engulf me again.

Everything is a bloody cycle. Entrapment gives way to brightness, and brightness marks that entrapment is about to come again.

There were many moments in my brief period of brightness where I suffered disbelieve at the high speed passage of time. I wish and pray to god, regardless if he really exist, to confer upon me the power to reach out and hold on to time, so that everything will come to a standstill and my brightness will never dim.

Yet the more nerdy parts of my brain snapped right back at me, nagging and lecturing me that in real life such a power is not to be. The internal mental conflict, the repulsive and vile images that floods my mind of the bunks, the office, the buildings, and the compounds of the camp stabbed with so much violence and perfect disregard for the comparatively mild meaning of the word “stab”, and literally crumpled my soul.

The headaches are getting worst, and at times it feels like someone is strangling me, from the back of my head.

I must stop writing about my feelings and experiences, for it too take a toil on my health points.

I can see that my writing style had took a very big shift direction, and I do not know if what I wrote could be read. But at least to me, at least during the time of writing, these words on the screen makes sense to me, and gave me an illusion that someone out there is hearing my problems.

I don’t want anymore encouraging words. I don’t want any form of support any longer. All I want is an end. An end to this ridiculous period of my life.

I have no idea what I am going through. How am I going to explain it to others? And it is because of that that I was suspected of faking my condition, a rather unfair and inconsiderate accusation that does nothing but adds on to my agony.

I need to be able to express myself. Yet I failed again and again.

On tuesday I will be given a chance to see a man who could set it all right for me. Please pray, wish or hope, or whatever, for me, that I will be able to make my sufferings and agony known to him, for him to help me to get out of this endless cycle of entrapment and brightness.

I am very giddy right now, head swaying left and right, and my head skin itches. I need to stop thinking about thinks I shouldn’t be thinking about in my current condition.

Wei kiat, stop, stop stop…………..STOP!

Snap out of it. Regain control of my fucked up mind.

Yes. Got it. My damaged usual self is back.

If someone were to sell tissue papers in my room, he or she would be a instant millionaire.

There, that should be my style of writing.

And let me look forward to a fun day tml. Vivo City and Sentosa with my fantastic girlfriend.

Please somebody, god, or who ever, give me the ability to freeze time. I need it tml.

:’(

I asked myself why I had suddenly grown in love with photography during my NS. I think I found the answer.

Photography is the only way to pause time available to me. Freeze the moment and view it later. Not a very sufficient alternative, but an alternative is still an alternative. I lug 20+ photos of family and gf into camp every week.

Many frozen bright moments.

Tainted

My mind was on vacation again, dreaming wonderful dreams. Beautiful, pleasure-inducing images that filled me with love and peace and freedom are elements of my dreamy world.

Suddenly I sensed an intrusion. A vile presence had intruded my virtual heaven. Th presence seems to be a female. I could nearly see her, yet I couldn’t. She came into my dreams and destroyed all that was good. Tainting my images with black lines and erasing some. she used her head and smash up my dreams like someone smashing her head into a large piece of paper.

Everything lay tattered and torn.

I woke.

The night before while I was in camp, I visited the toilet in the middle of the night. While I was urinating a white shadow flashed past me, very distinctly, yet disappearing as suddenly as it appeared. Could this white shadow and strange presence that intruded my dreams be somehow related?

Yesterday, I broke down due to stress, whack my head against my locker a few times, and my body cramped up.

This is not me.

I had been tainted.

Wake

I laid back an let the current of the world drown me. I floated into the sky and my soul did little swoops. My legs went for a little dance on their own and my arms were busy arm wrestling with each other. My mouth was busy working on a bowl of Lor Mee. All parts of me are at peace and joyful in this reality that was not to be.

At waking, the reality that was not to be fades and my body snapped together painful like a stretched rubber band giving your skin a sudden embrace. Silence strangled my ears and my eyes opened reluctantly.

The harsh reality that yet another new day had began sets in, and I am now like a freshly charged battery, ready to be drained by forces in the real world again.

Worries, concerns, longing and needs flooded my mind as if a dam was suddenly broken by water volume ten times that of the Grand Canyon. My consciousness popped back to be violently and suddenly.

My mind began to swell. It hurts. And that is an under-statement. It kills.

I rolled around in my bed, unwilling to face this reality. I want to burrow back into the reality that was not to be, but external forces had it that I won’t be do so for another 17 hours. The notion of jumping off a building feels as attractive as an FHM model. My reluctance to do so so as to hang on to my loved ones did nothing but flooded my vision.

With water.

My Audio Gears

My one and only MP3 player. Cowon D2. All other portable audio players I have are MD players. So this speaks volumes about this cute little device with a beautiful 2.5 inch 16 million color(24bit) TFT-LCD touch screen. More info here.

Now, enjoy the photos.

And what is a fantastic audio player without top of the line and stylish headphones? Presenting to you, in the order of merit, the legendary Koss PortaPro (released more than 20 years ago) [SGD89], the Audio Technica ATH-EM5 [SGD50], and Creative EP630 [SGD35].


(This shot was out of focus, but I didn’t realise it until I upload to my computer. Too lazy to shoot again.)

I want to fly!

Please give me freedom!

(Saw a butterfly hovering about my neighbor’s plant, so I whipped out my camera and snapped. Not a very nice shot. But captures my desire to fly.)

Clarke Quay 150707

Photos are my only reminder that there are still time, life, hope and joy for me. It freezes the split seconds where joy occupies my mind. Yet once the day ends, my eyes’ floodgates opened again and let out a huge gush of water, hugging the contour of my tired face and finally find themselves committing suicide on the floor or getting wiped away by pieces of paper…

(All photos were taken by either me or my dear. Photos with both of us in the frame were taken by my trusty extended left hand.)

Chain of command

So you can see, chain of command is something designed for B to prevent being fucked by C, while continuing to fuck A, the lowest in the chain.

Splendid design.
