myself

i am someone who is delusional at times. someone who seeks for attention of others. someone who suffers from middle-child syndrome. someone who sees depression as an inspiration for writing. a poet. an emotional kid. but an optimist at the same time. weird. but true.

just-want-to-write-even-though-it's-nonsense entry

people love a good drama. teleseryes get high ratings because of these dramas. drama becomes a part of our life. or shouldn't i say that our life is one big drama?

drama. when asked the definition, some people would say that drama is a genre that cannot go without a box of Kleenex. others would define drama as life. yes, indeed. life is full of drama. to quote Shakespeare, "the whole world is a stage, and all the men are its actors." so with the help of a little A=B, B=C; thus A=C logic, the life we live in = drama.

however, there are times that we forget which came first - life or drama. or are the two things just really interconnected and take the form of a circle (with no beginning and no end). the chicken-and-the-egg question never really got a decent answer, so i'm guessing this foolish question won't get its fair share of debates as well. the world/life has just never been fair, has it?

some people take drama too seriously - be it in TV, books or movies. i am guilty of that crime. i tend to engulf myself in their make-believe or oh-it-seems-so-real world and that makes it twice as hard to get my head and feet back to OUR reality. then, when i feel that my life is starting to get boring (though now that i think about it, it isn't often), i do my own drama. i have my own versions of being a drama queen - oh-so-happy-i-feel-like-i'm-drugged me, laugh-like-it's-your-last-day-even-if-everyone's-giving-me-that-you're-crazy-look me, razor-sharp-dagger-look me, and a whole lot of other me's - and doing a version of myself (any version actually) gives me the drama in life.

but i forget that i shouldn't be the one making drama in my life. drama is an inevitable factor in life. we don't make drama in life; life makes drama for us. life is meant to be enjoyed and looked forward to. i guess what i'm trying to say is that there are times that we should just let life take its course. i repeat, there are just TIMES when we need to let life take its own course, NOT all the time. becuase sometimes, when we let life do its thing, we get wonderful, unexpected results.

and quoting my friend, it's better to "expect the worst, and hope for the best." :)
