Don’t mind me, I drew this when I was really upset.

there is a numbness in my heart and its growing

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008

About a year ago I came to this city. I was feeling a little lonely because I haven’t made any friends yet and I remember sitting alone in that room. No phone, no internet and no friends. Back then I only had a few photographs and memories of someone to keep me warm.

Now that I think of it, those memories are static. Everything is just as it were, the street we grew up in and the evening before I left for the airport. In fact, I was so certain that she was my soulmate. You know the guy that puts the girl at the center of everything ? I used to be that guy. Not until I freaked myself out and bailed on her.

I always wanted to work abroad and I wished she could have come with me. Unfortunately, that was never a choice for her. We were still together for 2 years even though we were seeing other people. But that changed when I left the country. Eventually she moved on, and I realised it too.

Today, I was doing the dishes and cleaning up after a long day at work. I felt a little of last year’s loneliness, except this time it’s not as bad. Things have changed so much for me , and sometimes I feel like I’ve grown colder. My youthful idealism and childish fears have given way to a safe middle ground. Perhaps the most important thing is, that I’m not scared of growing up anymore.

Except for the fact that she might be getting engaged. I don’t really believe it’s happening or that she’s serious about it. You know what I said when she told me? I told her I’d ride into the church with a white horse and kick open the doors. Okay, maybe I’m in denial, but how am I supposed to accept that?

I still don’t know how to feel about it.

I’m single again

Friday, June 20th, 2008

According to Facebook, I’m single again. I’ve always been fascinated at how dramatic the relationship status displays:

“Jason Phoon has ended his relationship”
“Jason Phoon is now listed as single”

These items are accompanied with a broken heart symbol, mind you.

Some of you may know, I was in a long distance relationship for about 4 months now. It was sweet while it lasted, but eventually we both decided we needed to be near each other if we were to continue. I guess that didn’t work out when I decided to stay here in Australia and work on getting a PR.

Well, I guess we both found out that we’re not cut out for a long distance relationship, especially one which might not have a future. At least the breakup went as smooth as possible, not like we were fighting or anything. Seriously I can’t handle that, cause I’m still studying for an exam tomorrow.

Well, back to “girls are evil” comics again.

#51 - the scrapbook song

(click here to listen/download)

The simplest song. Its just how I feel at the moment. So much I want to say but I don’t know how, so I’ll just leave ya’ll with a song.

I plan to do something with it later, like add xylophones. Or maybe a toy piano. Maybe I’ll get one off ebay or something …
