Black fingernails, red wine
I wanna make you, all mine
A lot of people, under ground
You wanna get there
You gotta go straight down
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh
There’s a culture, everywhere
Smoke clouds, hang in the air
So loud, can’t hear you talk
You and I,
Should take a walk downtown
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, downtown
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh
The argument over God, continues
This hell on Earth
All of us stand and point our fingers
At the ground
All of us stand and point our finger
so-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh
Red letter day, black heart
It’s gonna tear you, all apart
So loud, can’t hear you call
You and I,
Are gonna fall straight down
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh, downtown
o-oh o-oh, straight down
o-oh o-oh

-"Black fingernails, red wine" (Eskimo Joe)

In the midst of my depression, today was a rare day where the sun did manage to break through the clouds. I think the people around you really make a difference. In my time of need, I've come to realise who I automatically turn to.

Eventhough Jan-Jan is younger than me, sometimes, she's like my 'mommy'. I do love her dearly. She's really, really been there for me. And when I got into that horrible thing, I remember the first thing I wanted to do was call Eric. Funnily, eventhough he's always joking around with me and 'bullying' me with his 'abusive' ways, he's very much like a 'daddy' to me. He takes care of me and helps me when I need it. I really do miss him. Come back soon, Eric!

And there's Cynthia and Yvie who are like my older sisters and help cheer me up. Having dinner with them and Zita today was so much fun. It really helped me to take my mind off things.

Of course, I've also made some good friends this semester like Audrie, Bec, Jay and Sami. Not to mention other mates like Sandeep, Asish, Shirley, Louise and Michael.

And not forgetting friends like Nina who is like my little sister.

And also Annie (Ann Tai) who always has a compliment for me and is always so cheerful and cute; Shing Fuh who is a really sweet guy. They came to dinner last night and I had so much fun. :)

So, I guess, while my skies are grey, there are always those who help to push the clouds away and make life all that more easier to bear.

I'll be strong and make it through.
