Nothing important.
Me : Touty is so lucky. She always gets a boyfriend who knows how to take care of her.
Auntie : I think that's because she is pretty.
Me : *frown*
That's not fair.
Auntie : *shrug*
The thought of it is depressing.
I have fallen in love with love again. Not a very good learner, after all. I have fallen in love with love my whole life, and I think habit dies hard. Probably.
I need a very strong wake up call.

Rose Walker : Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn't it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life...You give them a piece of you. They didn't ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn't your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like 'maybe we should be just friends' turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It's a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.
