it's the ironic & controversial rhapsody of an ambiguous bert

According to M, it's supposed to be just "a lot better" and not "a lot more better". And I thought my command of English was fine, apparently not. Haha..

It's been a while since I last had my emotions emptied out by a film.

I kind of like twilight, please do not get me wrong for I'm not referring to the movie here and yes, I know twilight can refer to daybreak as well but I mean I really enjoy gazing at the sky when it hits 7pm.

Moving on, move on and hopefully, I stay moved on.

I'm sorry..

There are just too many reasons for me not to; I'm no longer a child - I need to be responsible for my own actions. It's not right, you can't give me security and I do not want to become a sinner.

I hope you understand where I'm coming from.

"Ex-teacher, teen had sex"

I judged this and my colleagues judged me; so who's the one on the moral highhorse?

Regret - it eats at you from within, like a vile creature nurtured through imprudence and in the absence of discipline . Often it makes us wish we are masters of time so that we may go back and undo certain actions. Men do learn from hindsight; it's only cardinal if when presented with a similar situation a second time that we repeat the very same mistakes. I acted on impulse again, not once, not twice, not even thrice...

Could I have handled the matter in a more mature manner?? Yes. But I allowed my emotions to get the better of me. The result - "albertantrum". It ruined not just the night, my night but it may very well have left a smear across the memories of my friends, affecting them needlessly.

Tantamount to the saying "so near, yet so far", I was right outside and 5 centimetres away. I had envisioned it perfectly; I'll step into the room, you'll look up at me roused from your slumber by my entry and I'll plant a kiss on that pair of lucious, soft, full lips. Yet when my trembling fingers wrapped itself around the pale and cold metal, heartbeat quickening with every second and my mind a tumult, I found myself powerless and weak. Like some TV serial drama, albeit knowing you are right on the other side of the threshold, I released my shaking hand and turned away.

I do not like to leave issues hanging.

I need to resolve this.

Oh the naivety of it all. I keep telling myself that I'm done here and then I keep giving you another chance and yet you keep letting me down.

As much as I do not wish to, I guess maybe it's time I wake up from this dream. It's a wake-up call for me not to play with fire, the next one may just be me. Although there have been much more beautiful dreams in the past, this one has been, and still is, just as memorable. I got myself into this, I have to get myself out now. But the 1 million dollar question remains, when I wake up tomorrow, will my heart still be as firm??

Should I??

Can I??

Bottomline - Will I??

Our dear cod aka Queen of the Steps was so lazy to walk back to his car, he hid his Gatsby in the bushes at the traffic junction before returning to the club. According to him, he has already done this many times and each time, managed to successfully retrieve his clay.
