| | sink - 9goats black out | ] | 2008 has been a really chaotic year for me. some changes i have made in my life were pretty drastic in the eyes of others, but to me, meaningful as i am still trying to live by them.
ever since 2007, when i was told that i have piled on the pounds, i have been depressed and fighting terribly hard against it. there were many times when i told myself that i wanted to just turn anorexic and go to hell with it, only because i really imagined my life to be so much easier, if i could only look in the mirror and feel good about myself. because other than this, i feel like i had nothing else to bank on. people often told me how nice and considerate i am, but these things seem to be a compensation for my lack of aesthetic beauty, because truly when you have no external beauty to boast of, you can only flourish from inside out and that's inner beauty at your best. still, i knew that no matter how nice i was, i was so dashed when told that i had put on weight. it was like the sky had crashed upon me. i was constantly trapped under that heavy bulk of a rubble, i had no way to run and i just wanted to wither and die. honestly it wasn't just the words, it was the look of.. of... i can't even begin to describe it, i don't even want to think about it.
until october 2007, i was trapped in a body that i hated, a face that i still loathe even after 26 years of my life, my self-imagery is poor and if given a choice, i may secretly consider cosmetic surgery if given to me at no cost. LOL. but of course that was wishful thinking. and then in august, i heard about this detox programme that could help me to shed some weight and me and my friend z, embarked on a journey, searching for it. admittedly all i wanted to do was lose weight but i found a lot more, my only problem was having the resolve to keep up with the mindset that changed in me. slowly i am reverting to my old self, which is very disappointing, z has seemingly completely given up on her journey to stop emotional binging, or apparently so, i don't know. she is still one friend i cannot fathom at times and it seemed to be easier that way at times. she's too complex.
honestly, i still hate my body, i still loathe the kind of face i have. i still wished i could be stick thin, whenever i hear skinny people exclaiming how they need to lose weight, i am seriously put off and disgusted and i don't know how these people can be so inconsiderate of those who are heavier than they are. have they no eyes to see? have no conscience? are they just exclaiming for the sake of getting responses they wish to be littered with , "oh come on, you are so skinny!"
i don't know how many times i have heard it. how many times i have given the response that they wanted, and i am frankly sick and tired of it. the next time anyone says they need to lose weight, i am going to keep my mouth shut. this is my first new year resolution for 2009.
1) when people tell me how fat they are and need to lose weight? ESPECIALLY when they are the skinny bitches, i shall refuse to comment.
recently when i met chimp, i was really surprised by her decision to visit the weight management centre. i guess, she is really like me after all. there was once when we were very close-knitted friends but i think certain incidents, relationships in her life ended and that probably spelt the end of our close friendship as well. i am not too sure if it's because my presence reminds me of her, because the 3 of us used to hang out a lot together, practically inseparable for a bit. those were incredibly fun days that i could not forget...truly. i can only reminisce but if it was really for that reason i stated? i totally understand the position she is. back to her decision to visit a weight loss centre, it really shocked me because she was the last person i knew who would ever have such considerations, i can only imagine her scoffing at it and adamantly believing that exercise is the best way to losing weight. so never in my mind did i ever...
still, she seriously is going for it. makes me wonder if everything will work out for her. because honest to god! i don't see why she needs it. then again, like myself, she probably has a rather poor self-image and can never be satisfied no matter what is achieved. maybe losing that bit of weight will make her feel better, like how i have. and if that's the case, i just want to say that i will support her decision because i completely know how she feels.
more anime, more j-rock
it's been so hard to find better j-rock lately. d's status and imagery is seriously falling apart in my mind, i can't believe the kind of shiet they came up with lately. it is driving me nuts. no matter how good they looked, they are seriously lacking the musical substance of yester indie years. how i wish they never turn major. it is never RIGHT to believe that any band that goes major can stay remotely as fantastic as their indie days. even 12012 has produced some bizarre singles that did not sit too well with me. and as for deg, let's not go there. my personal affection for them stems from one man whom i have been in love with ever since 8 years ago, still going strong because he is the perfect bachelor in my life. as for music, i admit that certain albums were not too welcoming and there has been a change of drastic music direction but they have won me back with uroboros and i can truly see them NOT ever turning POP, which is a great relief and one thing i laud them for. d and 12012 is giving me too much pop now!
i miss the gothic darkness of visual kei music and i am so glad to have found 9goats black out. i see so much despondence and melancholy in their music, which is so beautifully etched in my mind everytime i listen to them. the poignancy resonates strongly and i think ryo-san must truly be a great visual music artist, who believes that music is more than just pleasure for the ears but can serve to unfold beautiful imagery that compliments melodies to a dime. truly. i am thankful for them!
and perhaps, in 2009 i hope to find many more.
i am back on the anime rampage again. and have been constantly updating my lists of "watched anime" on facebook. and i am really speeding up like nothing matters. lol. hurrah!
am watching 幕末機関説 いろはにほへと now. it seems to be extremely interesting. ^^ yafoo!
i will visit japan in march / april 2009 with my own abilities, i shall make it to japan this year. toto! you will see me soon enough. with a deg concert or a 9goats black out concert will be in the pipelines if allowed! i even have a scarf and jacket ready for the season / trip! it's really pretty.
marriage in 2009? nahhhh i still find myself to deep-seeded in my childlike ways to even consider this. and i am sure toto feels the same. still, he hasn't failed to mention this option at certain times. i have no qualms about leading a vagabond life since his career hasn't exactly taken off in the usual way you expect a salary man would. i also foresee that he will never allow himself to sit into a salary man life with his love for unruly hair and fancy dress senses and all. perhaps we will really lead the takopachi shop life in japan when the times comes. o well, who knows! lol.
**still wondering if i should go back for the high school gathering. i fear what lies ahead...
and you notice how i never talked about my job? work is just. 4 letters. SHIT. |
