i am tired of coming up with titles...


did you ever hear of this psychological analyis/profile/picture/mywrist called the second child syndrome?
no? me neither. i think it is something i came up with.
apropos, it is something i think is affecting/afflicting most second-born children.

chinese families always think more highly of their first child. this is a fact, especially if the kid was a boy.
he will be made to feel important - fact is he could probably be - and more integral and special in the family. now, the youngest child will always be the one loved more. always. disagree with that how you will, it is the truth. the kid would get all the attention and would want for naught emotionally.

which brings me to my point. the second child. now, the eldest takes the glory, so to speak, while the youngest takes all the love.
these leaves poor No.2, well, pretty much nowhere. he will be in the shadow of the big brother. he would be less loved by the parents. if you parents ever read this, and can honest to God tell me that you love all your children equal, you are either a liar or an angel.
to the point, poor second-best-first-loser would then try to compensate in everyway he can. trying to be the most diplomatic one in the house. always trying to please. always trying to not offend. always tyring to make sure that there'd never be a slack anywhere. he grows up indecisive and always second-guesses himself.
 
he grows up living a lie and then throws himself off a bridge.
not really, but close.

disclaimer : i am not bitter, the point of the post is not to moan and whine.
if you think so, you've missed the point and can now go throw yourself off a bridge.
and this time.... really.

the drop...

"Good morning sunlight
As I get used to you
It's all gonna be all right
I did all I can do
And as I'm waiting for those eyes
To say what's on your mind
I finally think I've found the words to say..."
Butch Walker - Don't Move

"So tonight these stars can shine as our halos
and pine tree watch over like guardian angels
Protecting a perfect love between twilight and
and all a lifetime of learning..."
Jupiter Sunrise - Steal Me

"These false starts, these small meals,
they're for my, for my starving hands
just threading, just threading shallow waters
avoiding the drop, the drop in the ocean floor..."

happy birthday...

a spark, a shining velvet eye
a wish, a quiet breath of hope
a smile, a gift freely given
a breath, a candle extinguished

your spark, ever more will be
your wish, all, ever, and then some
your smile, a spring flowing
a breath, a year, another candle

Happy Birthday :)

when words fail...

i said hey i am siham.
she smiled, so perfect it gave me a heartattack and said
hi! i am carbonara...
four little insignificant words..in its insignificance, my entire world...
