crazy backlogs

mood: lazy oaf music: julie tearjerky by the eraserheads

i have been rereading my 2003 journal entries lately and i chanced upon my new year's message to balazoobasfamily a.k.a "my frenemies". here goes my text which eventually reached each member's email:

kung hei fat choi, everyone! (^,^) miss ya'll. i've never felt so harassed in my life till lately. all my academic, personal, social and work backlogs, which date back from december last year, are all making me crazy now. always, i feel the urge of running away from reality and hiding somewhere surreal. it's kinda ironic, however, because i do remember having ticked everything on my to-do list. do you ever feel the same way, guys? do you ever get surprised that, no matter how hard you try to become organized, you still missed an important deadline? do you get pissed off upon knowing that five minutes ago, on your way home you vowed to buy that scented swabs and ph care intimate wash only to realize later in your sleep that you forgot to do so? do you feel embarassed that we of all people failed to greet jan on her birthday? what a shame. my class instructor insists yoga will keep me aware of my environment and self. after two months of doing yoga, why do i still feel like the poster girl of major katangahan?
p.s. diane,
im glad to hear youre coming home soon. hope youre surviving, enduring all
the post-breakup syndrome. or, were you the dumpee?
