Yesterday was my moody day. For various reasons I suddenly lost faith in myself, as if all light which shows where I'm heading were withdrawn. I was left with bitter darkness, and I was frantically feeling my way through.
When your world sinks into complete darkness, you start to panic, because you are so used to be able to see clearly what's around you, and suddenly you are deprived of this previlege (spelling error anybody? It looks weird). You'll feel the whole world you've been working for has suddenly deserted you, and left you behind while they continue progressing into the future.
I felt lost.
Until someone extended an arm, which reached for mine, and pulled me out of this whirlpool of self torture. I struggled at the foreign touch, but when it felt familiar, it felt, not cold, but warm. The kind of warmth that could only come from the heart, when you know someone out there actually cares about what's happening to you and is willing to spend some time to just listen to what you've got to say.
Thank you for making my day brighter.

I had a pleasant surprise today. Pleasant surprises actually. First, a guy whom I nearly forgot came up and said hi to me! I only knew him during my duty as station master for O1... And because he took the initiative, we could just wave to each other normally each time we crossed each other's path in school. So nice to know that you just started another friendship with someone.
Then Dodo said hi to me in the canteen today! That was quite unexpected, for he used to not see me walking pass. Well, since he's been nice now I shall say hi to him the next time we see each other. There, I've got another friend in school again.
And then the most unexpected! When I went over to the class letter slots to check for letters from my angel or mortal I found a postcard for me. But it was from neither my angel nor my mortal. Guess who? Aulia! Can't tell you exactly how delighted I was at receiving his.. erm.. mail. Then before that when we returned from the coffee shop, Aulia called me and passed another postcard with encouraging messages to me.
And then my mortal replied! This time with chocolate and sweets!
These little surprises were what made my day! What a pleasant day:)
