riddle me this
This is getting old.

I resolve to get back to blogging and do so for several days and then I disappear again. I suppose it has something to do with the lack of enthusiasm for... well... everything. Is this what they mean by getting old? By getting bored so easily? By not even trying anymore? An entire database of mental notes is slowly rusting away in some obscure region of my brain I can't navigate back to.

Ah yes mental notes! Little ideas you are sooooo sure are bursting with potential that you make an effort each time to mouth "note to self" to virtually catalog these supposed surges of genius. I have buckets and buckets of these buggers. Unsent letters, unfinished short stories, attempts at poetry, lyrics, plots for screenplays. All edited beyond recognition yet none finished. You know what's worse than this lack of follow-through? Indifference. I can't even bring myself to get bothered. Complacence seems second nature already.

I'd rather sleep.

MYF donates to Philippines, Indonesia and Samoa

During the past couple weeks or so we've been following the devastating loss of life in Samoa, Indonesia and the Philippines. We feel compelled to make a donation to organizations that are assisting the rescue efforts for all three of these natural disasters. This money was raised by you, the fans, and we feel like making a donation to these regions is something you would want. We recently spent some time in the Philippines and it breaks our hearts to see the wreckage and loss of life. - Incubus

This much is certain
The human spirit is indestructible. As much as Ondoy took away, broken hearts will live on to see better days. To all who reached out and risked their own safety to help those in desperate need, may the good Lord bless you a hundred times over.
