1.23am. Squid ink pasta yay.
Glittering Blackness
On This Day in 2009: When Palestinian children returned to school for the first day of classes since Israel’s deadly assault on Gaza ended, not all pupils showed up. Some students had to be excused for not attending after being killed by the Israeli army during its three-week bombing campaign of the besieged strip.
Over 300 Palestinian children were killed in ‘Operation Cast Lead’ — between 27 December 2008 and 18 January 2009 — which took the lives of over 1,400 Palestinians in total.
Signs replaced the once-occupied seats at al-Fakhura School in the Jabaliya refugee camp in Gaza; names of victims written under the word in red: ‘Martyr’, 24 January, 2009.

give me courage to jump off the grails.
if you can’t forgive yourself anymore, it’s time to take that leap off the grail.
In the midst of the air, your entire life flashes across you.
You say goodbye to the regrets, the ‘never good enough’, guilt.
And no more ‘rest of my life’.
you can never say that anymore.
i’ve been sitting at my desk for the past 2 hours.
And all i’ve been doing is stare at my phone and trying to look busy.
People are still slowly strolling into the office.
Should i eat my smashed kaya bread?
In 2011,
i lost almost everything.
And gained some.
will always be thankful to the friends who went thru thick and thin with me.
will always be thankful to the love that i never thought i could have.
2011 passed by so fast - so much rain and tears.
this is goodbye.
goodbye.
