i just realised that the last post was quite barren.

there was a picture that was supposed to be put up, but due to technical problems refused to show.

No matter, i found out just a few minutes ago that a friend of my just lost his mother. She passed away on Monday, and all i could do was text him my condolensces.

He didn't reply, and i didn't expec him to. What could he say? i myself didn't exactly know what to text him, just to let him know that i knew what happened. I could say i was sorry. But i guess it wouldn't have helped him in anyway. But i always thought it was courteous and only the right thing to do.

Being far, or at a distance. Even in these modern times can be trying. Sure, technology can cut away the distance you say, but technology is not everywhere. There are parts and limitations to its outreach. At least in between third world countries there are. AT least here, there is.

Phone lines are always crackling, internet is slow, or limited. Then even text messages don't get sent on time. What was meant to an emergency txt, is delivered and unsent till the very next day.

I am ranting. and rambling. and complaining. and i'm still in the city.

I wonder what it'd be like when i'm not. Time will tell. another 19 days to go.

Chills.
