When you can't admit what you want

All I want is happiness.
And it really pains me to admit this.
Because all it means is that I haven't been exactly happy all along.
And if I don't make it known that I'm LYING all along...
I wonder what will happen now.
Can someone please help me make myself happy?
Emo sh*t.
You'd think things are falling apart now.
They're not.
They're just breaking into pieces.
Just why am I sad?
For this long already?

Life Before Man
Thoughts by

SA WAKAS!! Natapos ko na ring basahin ang Life Before Man ni Margaret Atwood.
Dog-eared na nga ang kopya ko ay lalo pang naging dog-eared dahil matagal din itong na-stocked up sa bag ko. Taong 1987 pa na-publish itong kopyang naiskor ko sa Booksale ng 30 pesos. Malapit na itong maagnas.
Point-of-view ng tatlong tauhan ang buod ng nobela: sina Elizabeth, Nate, at Lesje [binibigkas na "Lashia"]. Salit-salitang pagsasaad ng kanilang mga kuwento at internalisasyon. May mga dates ang bawat chapter, nagpapaka-epistolary writing. Hehe. Giya na rin iyon para malaman natin ang flow ng plot dahil salit-salitan din ang mga pangyayari batay sa mga dates.
Sinikap ikonek ni Atwood ang kontemporaryong buhay ng tatlong tauhan sa period ng mga dinosaurs. Si Lesje, na bata pa lang ay mahilig na sa mga rocks at fossils, ang nag-contemplate hinggil dito.
Sa kabuuan, ang nobela ay tungkol sa mga relasyon. Sa mga relasyong sekswal. Halimbawa, ikinumpara ang pagse-sex ng mga tao sa iba pang hayop. Ang pangangailangang mag-contemplate sa sex bilang instinct. Pagkatapos, paano na? Sino ang magliligpit ng higaan? Sino ang aako ng responsibilidad ng pagpapamilya?
Tungkol ito sa mga one night stands ni Elizabeth. "Elizabeth is old enough to know that one woman's demon lover is another's worn-out shoe." Sa diborsyo. Sa palitan ng mga partner. Asawa ni Elizabeth si Nate. Si Lesje ay may William. Nagbaril si Chris, ang kabit ni Elizabeth. Nang matapos si Nate kay Martha, si Lesje naman ang kinarir niya. Nakipag-sex naman si Elizabeth kay William--sa partner ng kabit ng asawa niya. Punyeta! Parang nanuod ka lang ng Gimik o TGIS. Nagpapalitan lang ng mga syota.
May hint ng tulang Morning in the Burned House ang pagkakasunog ng nanay ni Elizabeth.
Nagsimula ang nobela sa mga linyang, "I don't know how I should live. I don't know how anyone should live. All I know is how I do live. I live like a peeled snail."
..at nagtapos sa, "China does not exist. Nevertheless she longs to be there."
Mga linya ni Elizabeth. Sa huli, nakatingin lang siya sa mga larawan ng The Art of Ancient China. Life before "man".

I fell in love with you
Because I fell in love with you because
I fell in love with you because I fell in love with you
because I fell in love
with you because I fell in love with you
because I fell
in love with you because I fell in
love
with you because I fell in love with you because
I fell in love

because I fell in love with you
because I fell in love with you because
I fell in
love
with you
And I say it
17 times because
17 is a prime number
(it is indivisible)
And I say it
because
I cannot hide it like
a sore thumb or a hard-on
And I say it because I
cannot keep myself from saying I fell in love with you
because I fell in love with you because
I fell in love with you because I fell
in love with you
because I fell in love with you
because I fell
in love with you because I fell in love
with you
because
my mind runs around like
a mad dog. So
go deep
on me
go hard on me
because
