the longest wait

Tis has definitely became a MONTHLY rant.

I’m sorry for the absence guys, or the few people who even other checking my blog.. it’s been quite a long while..

The reason why I have failed to emit any signs of life over the past month boils down to the fact that I have been writing in my journal instead.. scribbling stuff when I’m in the bus or on the tube at times.. and when that happens I usually don’t like to repeat what I have written into my blog, purely for the sake that it ‘feels’ different to me when I write it out again.

Teehee, so… just gonna wait till I regain that mood for joyous doodling into my blog again yeah peeps?

Cheers and take care guys..
