Prologue

“Did you ever wonder why we’re here? Why things happen the way they are? Why do people have to let go of the things that were very important to them? Why do people in love live separate lives? Why can’t they just be together, live a happy life? Why can’t we put things the way they are? They say the people are the most powerful and most intelligent creation in this planet. If that’s the case, then why can’t we bring the dead back to life? Why can’t we make a time machine and change the mistakes that we have done in the past? Why can’t people fly? Why aren’t they allowed to do the things that they want to do? Why are some things wrong and some things right?

Life is the most ironic thing that God has made…it changes every now and then, at one point in your life you are happy and then everything would be taken away from you in an instant…then you’ll find yourself locked in a world that has never been yours…in a world where nothings familiar to you—no one’s out there to listen to you. Life is like that; and until now, I still don’t know the reason why it has to change that way. Why can’t it stay as it is? I hate changes…I have never liked adjusting to a new situation. I hope that everything in this world is permanent so that I will be able to stay with the ones I love as much as I want. Hope someday, someone will be able to invent a machine that runs faster than the speed of light, so we can travel back and correct the mistakes that we have done before. (Einstein said a machine that runs faster than the speed of light maybe able to brings us back in the past.) I hope that the people that got separated will stay together again. I hope that life is that easy. That life is perfect. But we are all in a situation wherein we are forced to follow the rules of nature. Life must face death and happiness must face sorrow. Life is an irony and there’s nothing more we can do about it. We’ll just have to live the way it is and prepare for changes, it will never leave you…chill out!! The course of the journey may change but as longs as you’re on the right track, everything’s fine…and if you got on the wrong boat, you might as well pray with me, that someday a time machine will arrive and bring you back home…And right now I think I’m signing off because mama’s calling me…hehe (I think she’ll be making me decide what course should I take again…hai…when will I be decide about it…that’s the change talking about…college! Ugh! I hate changes I said…why can’t I just be high school girl all my life…or, staying as a baby would be better… I don’t have to worry about what will happen tomorrow or maybe the next day, when my mom and dad would meet (at last!! Hooray!! After 10 years) and plan for my future. I hope they will fall in love all over again… I hope so… maybe not… alright… think I wrote too much already… as if someone’s going to read it someday…haha”—excerpt from my diary (march 19,2008 )
