			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>it&#8217;s already <span style="color: #800000;">March</span> now.</p>
<p><span style="color: #808080;"><em>where did Jan and Feb go?</em> </span>- most of you guys must have said this once or twice&#8230;</p>
<p>This three months since last December till today &#8211; I&#8217;d put it as months of self-discovery.</p>
<p>I have put up with lots of obstacles that&#8217;s very much of a &#8211; me vs the<em>other</em>me &#8211; kinda thing. Facing each and every incident, right in front of me, never once have I run away from them. The process was a total awful, gross, disgusting, heartbreaking, torturing, crap experience for a girl, like me &#8211; who can only take this much at one time.</p>
<p>Yes, you may say that I choose to do so when I can possibly escape it from time to time. I&#8217;ve tried, but I don&#8217;t think it works for me at that very moment. I can&#8217;t be living a lie forever and masking everything&#8217;s alright when I know exactly, it is not.</p>
<p>This leads to another part of the incident where it happened simultaneously one after another which has made me become who I am today. I fight with myself almost every second, to be or not to be, to give or not to give, to speak or not to speak, to touch or not to touch, to walk away or stay. The constant thoughts of &#8216;ruining&#8217; myself and climbing up again is killing me. I&#8217;m exhausted. I tried to blame everyone around for making such incidents happen when it can be avoided. I even blame God <em>(</em>I rarely believe in Him), for pulling me into such a dramatic scene(s) at one bloody time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://eripeng.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/sun.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1931 aligncenter" title="xxx" src="http://eripeng.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/sun.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="375" /></a></p>
<p>There&#8217;s this one special night, I stopped blaming everyone and even myself for this and that. I cried and say this to myself &#8211; <span style="color: #888888;"><em>It&#8217;s okay, I understand. Don&#8217;t need to take all my problems away, but Please give me strength to go through each of them.<br />
</em></span></p>
<p>Immediately, the day after I look at the problems/mess right into my eyes &#8211; to see whether does it mean anything to me or not. For which I cannot undo death, but the opposite. I stepped out from my house and go to this place to look for that specific living &#8216;creature&#8217;. and I found the answer there and then. Straight away. Like instant. Flash! It&#8217;s clearly written in your deadly eyes which speaks thousand words when no one can hear you.</p>
<p>Until today, I hear them still. Both of them <em>-</em> my most important men in life. Each and every words lingers around my ears still &#8211; just like the melody in my heart.</p>
<p>They have taught me something -</p>
<p>1: even if you lose something, lose it gracefully and it is okay.</p>
<p>2: one can be so selfish that one cannot imagine. so be it.</p>
<p>3: what comes around,<em> really</em> goes  around.</p>
<p>4: zero is round. the earth is also in round shape. there&#8217;s no corner where you can hide. we will meet someday, again.</p>
<p>I have stopped crying, but that doesn&#8217;t mean I&#8217;m strong. Probably, my heart turns cold and couldn&#8217;t produce anymore tears. Many people often think that I&#8217;m weak, cry very easily, over-emotional, ugly, a big time follower, no perfect skin, no vocab, stubborn, no black silky hair, laugh too loud, don&#8217;t earn big bucks, clingy, selfless, no perfect eye sight, blur, not smart enough, not intellectual at all, doesn&#8217;t know how to cook, easily cheated, an option to people, .. etc etc.. but that&#8217;s what makes me a human, no?  I fell and I gather my courage all by myself, and slowly stand up again. I&#8217;m me. They brought me here, to be me. I&#8217;m perfectly me. and This living creature has contributed a bit of things to my life. He created this and left me alone to handle <em>this.</em> But then, that&#8217;s not the end of the whole drama. They say every ending is the new beginning. I can&#8217;t help but to agree.</p>
<p>Everything is flipping around and crossing over. I will step back, bit by bit. For I&#8217;d given my all. :&#8217; ))</p>
<p>Side note: This whole week, I have been bombarded with tons of questions from people around US. Questions that doesn&#8217;t really bother me at first, but the after-effect is picking up quite fast. it&#8217;s like pumping real hard next to your heart and you think you could breathe but not really. I&#8217;m no body to answer the questions which you guys have been pointed out. I&#8217;m no body to comment or say anything anymore. I wouldn&#8217;t want to spell anything about it. It&#8217;s not even my story to begin with. Thanks for your concern, really.</p>
<p>x</p>
<p>p/s: objective to this blogpost is to be honest.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">I think I have never play an important role to anyone&#8217;s life before&#8230;</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I have never been told that I’m important just yet; Isn’t it strange that I’ve have not been told for the past 20 years. (laughs)</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I’m usually the second or third choice,</span><br />
<span style="font-family: georgia;">Or maybe, not even a choice to some people.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I treated everyone wholeheartedly, expressively and sincerely,</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I care for each and individual living that I’ve known/met,</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I listen to/work for important people&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">So I played the role to the extreme as if I’m that important to them as well.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">During my teenage life, I told myself that</span><br />
<em><br />
<span style="font-family: georgia;">“You know what, Eri, you have to be sincere, if not people wouldn’t know or even care about you. Be a good person and make them feel that you do care and love each and every single one of them even if they don’t return the love you’d given to them.”</span></em></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Constantly, I give in, and he/she take.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">It’s fine. Really. I don’t mind. At all.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Yeah, yeah, Call me altruist, stupid, stubborn, pigheaded, a girl with no character &#8211; at all.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">And I used to think that,</span></p>
<p><em><span style="font-family: georgia;">&#8220;Hey, I’m pretty important to them eh!”</span></em></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">It made me forget me, myself and I, literally.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I&#8217;ve become so selfless that I don&#8217;t even remember myself anymore.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I look at this crooked mirror and asked myself</span></p>
<p><em><span style="font-family: georgia;">“Who am I?”</span></em></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Silence.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I am the one who would only think for people and FULL STOP. The End.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Seriously, I don&#8217;t see, people think, and feel for me these days.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Funny isn&#8217;t it?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Just when you’re about to give it all to people and you told yourself a million times that its okay, its alright, they will somehow feel it one day, soon. Even, if they don’t acknowledge your sincerity.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Then, all the negative thoughts rushes in and drives me crazy, mentally.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Silence.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Why do I speak to myself, unconsciously, about all this stuffs?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><em>Oi</em>, all the time, I have been doing this; to portray to be a good person and speak nothing awful about it.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">A person is not human is it, now?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Cannot speak to oneself is it?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">*<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Before I type this out,</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I thought that maybe, you just maybe&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">If it seems to be too good to think for people, it probably isn’t. at all.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">The ambiguity of this line is just so… urgh!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I, now don’t even know how to explain all these thoughts that are lying on my mind for a very, very, long, time…</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">After all, I’d still think that I’m not any closer to that important role in anyone’s life; in this world, in this society, in this place where I belong to be, and in this little delicate heart of mine.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Maybe, I should play the opposite, be the baddie, be less flexible, be so selfish that I don’t even want to eat fish anymore wtf, be ignorant, be less happy and jolly eri, be the strong-headed lady who have had a bad pms day wtf and the list goes on and on..</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">And in that case, people will remember me! People will think of eri, me, my existence and all.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Yea, I should consider about being that.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Making people happy is so tired. No?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Silence.</span><span style="font-family: georgia;">I should just be me. And I know one day, in which case I don’t know when that will happen, people will come and show me that they know my love, my sincerity. And my honesty is no longer alien to people.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">For now.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">I, thank you, all, for listening.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Really.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;">Black out.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-438" title=".." src="http://eripeng.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/img_0136.jpg" alt=".." width="240" height="400" /><br />
