Im in such a good mood tonight. Been having some online pranks through MSN with my friend, and honestly I feel much better now compared to previous days. Geez, laughter from ignorance and stupidity is indeed a remedy for everything.

Tonight I feel that my mind is very clear, as clear as the starless sky of Jakarta. Positivity is currently running through my vein. John Pizzarelli is still singing oh so smoothly from my iTunes.
I've been doing some thinking.
I want to help the people around me. I realized Ive been a completely selfish person, putting my needs and wants above others. Well now everything is about to be changed. I do hope I am capable of such deed. Im not exactly talking helping people in a radical way i.e. helping them to cheat and giving them all my possessions for their better lives. Nah, seems too bullshit for me.
Im thinking of helping others with their grades. Doing some individual lectures. Using what I have to ease other's struggles, even in the slightest way.
Thinking about it now, it might actually be fun. I read once in Readers Digest that the meaning of your life does not imply from what you think you've done with your life, but what others remember you by when one day you shall leave this world.
Maybe some day some where, people might remember me as the one who helped them get into college. Or at least the one putting a smile on their face. I wonder what that feels like, when others smile sincerely in gratitude, for what you have done for them.
Bet it would be somewhat like this? The corner of my lips havent cease to drop eversince I started writing this post. Hope it'll last :)

michelle my lesbian affair,
helping you wasnt that big of a deal. im sure every friend would do such deed to their lesbian partners, especially those who helped her to show another side of her that noone has ever known, yet.
i do regret bumping (well, colided to be exact) to your presence this late. we could have been so much more than just an ex-couple who dated in 2007/08 and broke up but still get along great (remember this line? lol).
LETS ROCK IN BALI. and in these weekends to come, studying and partying hard.
your 'is that an angel' angel,
denica.
