Zero Hour

i was supposed to name this entry 'The Fall of Bibi," (you'll see why later) but i remembered im using two word titles until february of next year... anyways...

i woke up to a different air today. it's like the end of an era... officially.

Yesternight, while i was lounging at my favorite hangout (my bed), i busied myself with super mario brothers 3 on my laptop's nes emulator. i felt an itch on my backside, so i stretched out to reach it, but my foot got caught somewhere on the sheets and i accidentally leaned over my innocent laptop. i just heard a shy crack and the crystalline sound of shearing glass, and when i looked over, the once 15 inches monitor of my laptop is now a rhomboid on the upper left, the lower right was black with matrical lines. in short, i cracked my laptop's lcd, and now, about 40% of the monitor graphic is gone.

damn. just when i was gearing to watching my latest dvd series.

so the point of recounting my mishap, i think... im losing the things that defined me in college so i can start back again from scratch... back to zero.... i have recounted before that i lost my favorite things, like my ipod, my favorite tee, the rest of my gadgets.... huff, it's like im being stripped barenaked.

so i had a little moment saying goodbye to my laptop (it was dusk and the evening sky was abnormally sadly purple yesterday.) i'm not saying i cried (no im more manly than that, haha!) but it bummed me remembering how important my laptop used to be.

anyways that was yesterday, and this morning, when i woke up, i saw myself in the mirror in some other perspective. i looked at me looking back, no white earphones hanging from my ears, no catchy lanyards suspended from my neck, no silver studs, no fancy play toys at my fingers, donning one of my oldest shorts and a washed-out tank-top... i was looking at myself sans my usual regalia... and it was a bit intriguing, because there was something really organic about it...

maybe it was destined by fate... maybe i really have to start from scratch, shed all my protective coverings and start creating confidence in myself without the help of comfort things. it's like, for me, the most official end of a passing era. and im excited for tomorrow.

i miss bibi, my laptop, she has been so accomodating... but maybe its time to move on... ;p
