Wherever you will go

Save the fireworks and the roses, and dismiss the marching band. When the stars conspire to make your life a tad, if not a tad more difficult than it already is, suddenly waking up on the wrong side of the bed, finding yourself on the wrong side of time constraints and an overpouring of other commitments, you can only do so much.

I already gave my word; I was supposed to meet her this Thursday. It's supposed to be something symbolic, after all - being together at the start of another year in the lunar calendar. Ironically, things have gotten in the way yet again. We defend our work this Friday, and we're all struggling to regroup. As if that bomb were not enough, Sir Tan announced a test on advanced math this Saturday only hours ago.

So while we finally seemed to be getting nudged in the right direction together, the promise of three years seeming to make a premature takeoff, it only seems to get awrier as we go along.

We can only assume and counter assume so much before we reach a dead end. The last counter assumption was that if she was truly important to me, then I would certainly find the reasons and the excuses to go. Does this mean she's not important to me? Care to counter?
