Life has just been going on for me for the past few days. Presentations, midterms, assignments, research...just one vicious cycle, with not even the upcoming Eid holidays perceived as a breathing space. But then, as life rarely does, the general course of things suddenly took such a turn that its left me breathless. Suddenly, i'm not the person i thought i was. Why? well, isn't a person known by the company he or she keeps? and when ppl u kno and love turn out to be so different, where does that leave u? I'm very different from all of my friends, but i thought i knew them, and i knew what to think abt them...at least uptil now. Now, when i love them all no less, but find out that THEY don't even like each other... am i being too naive?? This has happened before, but i always handled it with what i thought was maturity. But i've let myself become so close to one person, and admire another so much that when i found out that one hated the other's guts --i never really knew what the word 'shattered' meant...not until now, when i can actually feel my mind, my heart, and my soul breaking simultaneously. i thought there was some truth in my life... have u ever been dealt a blow so shocking that it seems physical? I'm literally seeing stars on front of my eyes... great...crying in the uni computer lab...what next?
