When I need you
I just close my eyes and I’m with you
And all that I so want to give you.
It’s only a heartbeat away.

When I need love,
I hold out my hands and I touch love.
I never knew there was so much love,
Keeping me warm night and day.

Miles and miles of empty space in between us.
A telephone can’t take the place of your smile,
Oooh, but you know I won’t be traveling forever.
It’s cold out, but hold out and do like I do.

When I need you,
I just close my eyes and I’m with you.
And all that I so want to give you, baby,
It’s only a heartbeat away.

It’s not easy when the road is your driver.
Honey, that’s a heavy load that we bear,
Hmm, but you know I won’t be traveling a lifetime.
It’s cold out, but hold out and do like I do.
Ohhh,

Hmm, when I need love,
I hold out my hands and I touch love.
And I never knew, oh never knew,
there was so much love,
Keeping me warm night and day.
Ohhh,

When I need you,
I just close my eyes and I’m with you.
And all that I so want to give you,
It’s only a heartbeat away,

When I Need,
When I Need,
It’s only a heartbeat away…

“When I Need You” — Julio Iglesias

Feeling sad. Feeling lonely. Is it the weather? Is it the rain? My knees are hurting from all the moisture in the air. No. Don’t feel like doing anything. Feels like nothing is worth the effort. My favourite book can’t tempt me. My favourite song is a pebble in a deep dark lake. Feels like I wanna sleep and dream for the rest of my life. Though I don’t feel like it, I’ll probably be myself again in a few days…

*nope, sorry, no story update today*

With the new Dungeons and Dragons movie coming soon, I’m now “revising” the D&D manuals I’ve got: D&D’s Player Handbook, Monster Manual, Epic Level Handbook, and Deities and Demigods. Such a work of creativity, a whole multiverse of worlds. Worthy of the “Tolkien Creative Award”.

Watched a new Hallmark movie, “Seventh Stream”. Still can make tears spring from me eyes. Ahh, the best movies come from the Hallmark Hall of Fame, with “10th Kingdom”, “Merlin”, “Children of Dune”, etc. Deep inside, I’m still a sentimental idiot, with fantasies of worlds where good always defeats evil, love can overcome darkness, bla bla bla.

It’s in the news again, the riots in France. Part of me wonders why people can’t get along. Part of me is the hypocrite, expecting too much from other people, yet expecting too little from myself. Human nature? Natural human arrogance? After all, history is written by the winners of wars. Try reading German and Japanese history books on World War 2 for a different perspective on the war. Try reading Dan Brown’s famous “Da Vinci Code” for a different look on Christianity. Could be fiction. Could be true. Who knows?

New semester will be starting soon. Gotta pull up my CGPA. All in mere eight weeks. Sigh.
