Welcome Back To The Human Race, Kawa!

*Bambaa-badananaa-danaaa~!!!*

Random shit post.

Ho-hoi! After some short spurts of breaks, yesterday was finally the day I go back to work. Got pretty lazy. Ahh, the "wonders" of holiday blues.

Felt lazy, but still lots of work to do. Office network speed didn't help. It was crawling like a snail. At one time I really felt like just throwing down the mouse, pack up and head home. It was about an hour away from after office hours. To quote myself:

"Network so damn slow!!"
"Leng leng, I'm going home lah."
"Bye bye!"
"Take care!"

But of course, I'm still sitting infront of the comp. Curses.

Need to discuss with manager on when I can take leave some more. I have less than a month's time to clear around 6 more days of leave!!! Getting a bit worried. Meditate on it, I will.

I guess the interview is a no go. It's what, literally the end of the month now? Who knows? But I'm not going to think about it anymore.

Archives will most probably be back after about a month's time.

Note to self: Need to collect that M&Ms from C. ML was so nice. When she went to Langkawi, she got me some M&Ms. Thank you! ^__^


*Bambaa-badananaa-danaaaaaaaaa~ badam chiang~!!!*

Infection

Image hosted by Photobucket.com

Pretty lousy movie poster huh? I can't remember where I ripped it from but this is the over-seas version poster. I've seen the original Japanese one which is cooler.

Saw this movie on last Saturday with Gerald and Lynn. Currently one of my favourite horror movie. It's psychologicaly full of drama and tension.

The story tells about a hospital's staff who are over worked, inexperienced, under staff and under a lot of pressure. It has turned into a shitty place to work in.

One night, a miscommunication proved to be a fatal mistake: wrong drug overdosed administrated to one of the patients. That's when everything goes downhill from here. They decided to cover it up by digging deeper and deeper into their grave. And what about the mysterious patient with some sort of weird, grossed out infection, that was left behind by the ambulance; even though they have rejected to accept the patient due to space constraint?

Though the first 45 minutes (approximately) is pretty slow and draggy. But I love it. I thought it's pretty good that they take the time to introduce you to the characters and make you feel for them with their realistic problems. Everyone in the hospital has their fair share of problems. Inexperience nurse who can't find a vein on the body? Checked! Bitchy, nothing better to do and busy body nurse? Checked! A doctor who's in financial trouble? Checked! The doctor who's trying to keep everything together? Checked! Let's not forget that creepy Doctor Akai.

The atmosphere and setting is pretty good. Dark, cold and creepy. Plenty of green slime that oozes almost out of everywhere. Gore and blood is, hmmm not much. Pretty tame. But lots of leave-it-to-your-own-imagination stuff. Everyone knows how painful it is to be poked by a syringe right?

The ending is confusing. What's with Asian horror movies these days? This is the third Japanese horror movie with a "you decide what it is" type of ending. Lazy writting. Again, I have my own fair share of theories about what's going on.

Read somewhere on the Internet that this is the first of a series of movies labled: "J Horror Theater". Last I read, there will be 7 movies under this title. The next one is "Premonition", which it would be out on 30th June 2005 in local Malaysian cinemas. Heard it's better than "Infection". Looking forward to it.

Anyone knows what's the name of song (and by who) that's playing when the credits are rolling?

Too Busy?

Don't you just hate it when people are too busy to press a few keys on the keyboard to form the words "too busy right now. Can't talk."? Or even with the convenience of flipping the status to "busy"? In which, I am sure all messenger has it.

Worst is that they didn't even bother telling you what happened when they aren't "too busy" later. Or even "too busy" to even say bye or whatever when they have left.

Of course, there are exceptional cases that one is really too busy and tied up, or bosses at their desk. But EVERY time?? It's just plain rude.

A classic case of high and mighty - Def: arrogant and self-important.
Some people can be so juvenile.

Some people got too much money.

Some people apparently is deaf.

Some people is impatient.

Lyrics To Life Goes On

Life Goes On - Mika Arisaka

Life Goes On by Mika Arisaka

I can feel your heart in motion, deep down in your mind and passion.
Life goes on and on, we love each other in the sadness of time.


namida de nijinda kono sora wo miageru tabi
hakanai aosa ga mune wo shimedzuketeku

sadame nara kanashimi no hate made

Life Goes On mamoritakute

I can feel your heart in motion, deep down in your mind and passion.
Life goes on and on, we love each other in the sadness of time.

----------------------------------------------------------

Every time I look up into the tear-filled sky,
A fickle wave of blue binds my chest.

If it's destiny, I will leave behind the days
That I've fought till the end of sorrow.

Life Goes On, passionately.
As long as I am alive,
Even if I were to lose sight of my real self,
Life Goes On, I want to protect it.
My heart was shattered,
And in these eyes that have seen true sorrow,
Love is overflowing.

The flowers that bloom in winter paints a misty landscape.
"Strength is tenderness" I sang.

For what and for who
Do you continue to fight for now?

Life Goes On, be reborn.
If we unknowing meet again,
I don't want to lose you a second time, but
Life Goes On. In this era,
As long as I am given life,
I catch it with these arms and this chest.
Believe in love.

I can feel your heart in motion, deep down in your mind and passion.
Life goes on and on, we love each other in the sadness of time.

Life Goes On, passionately.
As long as I am alive,
I want to share this light with you again someday.
Life Goes On, I want to protect it.
Send your prayers towards the sky.
In these eyes that have seen true sorrow,
Love is overflowing.

Morning got into office and received Yahoo Messenger email notification. 4 new mails. Okay, blog comments from self, another one, from mort and something from MJ. Her friendster announcement or some notification. She's putting up a blog with links to her blog. And one of them has a link to this one!!

o_O"

bilibala to her when she was online.

Long story short, certain links are missing from blog. As some might link to one another, put two and two together blablabla. MJ suggested to have a private blog. Hmm this is a private blog, but yeah, you're right. People knows about it. But if it's really sooo private, is there a point to put it up on the INTERNET? Is there even a point to even write it out? A "secret" is: only one person would know about it and that is oneself. More than 1 person, it is not a secret. Having a brilliant deductive skill would make one paranoid. Ok, I'm rambling.

Well, like I've said before. Anything that had been said here, I've said it face to face to that person. Well, except for maybe calling people coughbastardcough and a few sarcastic jabs at some people :P. But there was one info that I've shared with everyone here, someone should not know. It's not really MJ's fault. Just myself being careless. It's not really a big deal, sooner or later that person would find out; and then he would find out about something else. But it's not the time yet. Ok, not a big deal to me but it is to that person. Ok, I'm still rambling.

There are things, that you would want to share with those who you are close with. Or things that you want to write out to have feedback. Even from strangers. This blog is one of it.

So, would I have a "private" *rolls eyes* blog? Urm, still dunno. LOL! But if anything, I of course would not announce it here. ;P

Strawberries

A colleauge went to Cameron Highlands, just got back and dropped by our office today.

He bought us some strawberries. That was nice of him.

For that, he will get less verbal ass kicking from me.

Pretty kind right? ;P

Darth Vader... Blogger?!!

Found this blog on Monday nite. It's the reason I didn't get enough sleep. Read it till 3am, Tuesday. Erm, 3:30am to be exact.

Here's the link: Darth Vader's blog - The Darth Side: Memoirs of a Monster

The link is from the first post onwards (more fun reading that way). Based on the Original Trilogy: A New Hope, Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.

It's a fantastic piece of work.

Don't forget to read the comments. Some readers were really role playing (as Stormtroopers, Jabba the Hutt, etc.), as if they are writting to the Sith Lord themselves. And watch out for Lord Vader's replies. Freaking in character and hillarious.

Saw Revenge of the Sith Last Night

Great movie! Best of the prequels!

One Missed Call 2

Saw it today.

Fans of the first movie would be very disappointed with this "sequel". Hhmm, how to do a review that wouldn't spoil the first and second movie?

Ok, we all know the first movie is about people dying (killed by a ghost) after receiving a missed call, with a voice message recorded from the future.

The second movie? The same deal and the some what same twist. Heck, they even ripped a famous hollywood movie.

Oh, and the taiwanese actor who played Kamen Rider Pysga in Kamen Rider 555: Paradise Lost is also in this movie.

More detail spoiler review, 1st movie ending analysis and outing posts later.

The Last Shuttle

I'm getting really bad at giving titles to my posts.

Nearly missed the last shuttle bus. Went down to the lobby, usually the bus would be the last one to KL Sentral but it's not there! In it's place, the smaller van. The uncle driver is sitting nearby. This must be our last ride.

I sat down and waited. Out came this erm gal and asked uncle if this van is going to KL Sentral. Uncle answered yes, look at his watched and signaled me to get into the van.

The gal asked me if the bus had left. "Beats me. It wasn't here when I got down here." I answered. "Must have been very full." She replied. We got on the van, and she sat next to me. *silence* *cars passed by* *silence* *people getting on the van* *silence* QUICK, SAY SOMETHING, YOU IDIOT!!! >_<

"You always work till this late?" I asked her. "Yes." She answered. So, we then introduced ourselves and blablablablablakoolooloo.

Have I ever mentioned how much I hate corporate acronyms? When we were talking about from which group and department that we were from, she started using acronyms that made my mind go blank. GS group? Errr "Ghost Sweeper" group? MS group? Errr "Mobile Suit" group?? A bit too much anime/manga already, Kawa. All the TS, GS, MS and WTF. It's all just another effing department.

I've been in this company for almost a year. And yet, I'm still very in the blur with all the acronyms. Oh, well. It's not like it's my Evil Empire.

Apparently she's from the Finance department. Had seen her on the bus before actually. She's taking the LRT. Though I had to take the commuter to go back cuz brother did't feel well and had went home earlier, I'm going to KLCC.

Bought the May Issue of Newtype Magazine, Deathnote vol. 2 and 3. Oh, and I kept the receipts! Ah-HA! For next year's income tax. Now I need to find something to keep all the receipts. Left a couple of mangas and artbooks for the end of the month.

On the way back, I think I saw a fellow blogger at a coffee joint. Not sure if it's her or not. Too tired and kinda rushing to get back home, so didn't stand around to see see look look. Would be weird to be standing around and see see look look at people. -_-'

Thursday's Lunch

*edit:ish what happened to this sentence!!?* -> Had lunch with M.

Harder than getting in touch with the PM eh? ;)

Saturday And Stuff.

Slept the whole day off. Yup. Just sleep. Nice.

Had a discussion with my manager yesterday. Apparently, I still have 10 days leave I need to clear. Yeah, you heard that right. 10 days. Awesome, huh?

Manager was asking me: "So, you're telling me that you only took 1 day leave and the rest were the closure leaves?". What's em closure leave? Well, during Xmas that week, our office was closed and we were "forced" to take leave even though we were working. Instead on that week, we had to clear it on other days.

I told her:"Yah." Shows how hard working I am :P. So, she's making me (twisting my arm and all :P) to take two days off this coming week and the next. I chose the coming and next week's Thursday and Friday. That means I have a 5 day weekend this coming week!! Woohooo! Bitchin!

Besides that, she told me that she will be renewing my contract and another small tidbit in which I do not want to say anything yet, except I've only shared it with one of you. ;)

Nice to know all the patience and hard work finally paid off.

Took Toffie to Healing Rooms a few hours earlier. He has been sick since Thursday night. Fever. Oh he has seen the regular vet but his fever has not subside since then. Mom and bro were still hesitating: "How ah? You think we should bring him there?". I was like, what the hell is wrong with you people?? "Don't talk so much, it's either we bring him there or we let his situation get worst. It's really that simple." I replied.

Had to follow them. In case they do not know how to ask what's wrong with him, what's needed to be done, tell the doc his condition and all. But the vet, Dr. Vijay was thorough enough when asking questions. Reluctant to go there cuz had bad memories. Chico passed away there you see. :(

Right now, Toffie seems to be better. Tiny is still as talkative as ever and he's actually quite a good brother. Everytime he knows Toffie's sick, he would stay near him sayang him and such. Awwwww.... :)

So, hmmm what else? The Star haven't contacted me. But I bet if interview is still on, it would be this coming week. Hmm, see how lah.

Better do something productive later in the day. *scratch scratch* Strange, the insect bite bump is still there.

Stressful Day and ROTS Tics, Baby!

Today, time moved in slow motion. Lots of work. Idiotic onsite colleagues. Idiotic users. Even thought it was a very busy busy day, but time just seems to go

tick..........


tock.........


tick..........



tock.........

But some how when I got back home, it doesn't matter anymore.

Manager asked me how many days of leave I have left. According to her, I have 9.5 days left. Holy Holidays, Batman! That's like, damn nice right? You can tell I haven't been taking much leave.

But the last time I've calculated, shouldn't have that much. But I haven't been taking much leave.. but @#$%^!! >__< !!

Or maybe there was some confusion. Sigh. Need to check it again with her tomorrow....

Bro manage to get Star Wars Episode III: the Revenge of the Sith (ROTS) tics for next Sunday. Have seen some mags with ROTS stuff, articles. Very tempted to buy. Already bought the latest First magazine that has a special tribute section. Some chinese mag called "Move" or some shit has the XPAX post cards. Tempted to get that.

Well, tomorrow is another day. And then it's the weekends! Booyah!

And So, Today I Was On MC.

Last nite flu got really bad. Got very hard to breathe. Had to use eucalyptus aroma theraphy.

Morning woke up, no hotter body and still can't scale walls. Damnit. But felt a lil better. But could feel it all coming back. Head's really heavy. SMS in to work tell em I will be on MC. Mac replied "fuuuuccckk loooo". What's with him? He can MC, other people cannot?

Toffie didn't expect to see me at home today. He was pretty excited. His eyes were as black as the night. Kept chasing my legs...

Went to clinic. Gave me some running nose pills and cough syrup. They were strong. Haven't felt so drugged in my life since. Took the meds and slept almost the whole day.

Now, it's night. Slept right after dinner. Nose still kinda stuck. Received one SMS from Mac asking me if I'm on MC tomorrow or what. I think I"ll just let him sweat it out. Now where's my lamp?

Bitten

On my way out to lunch, suddenly felt this agonising pain on the back of my neck. Felt like something bit me.

Not sure what bit me, but now there's bump that is a size of a 50 cent on the back of my neck. Everytime I chew or any movement from my jaw, I would feel it stinging.

Feels kinda feverish, but that's probably due to my flu. Oh well, if I woke up with a hotter body, no need to wear contact lenses and able to scale walls, that would be good.

Back to work!

Friendster Profile View for April '05: 32 Times

Scary. Really scary how "curious" people can get.

Last month I've uploaded a pic of me with a friend, whose gender happens to be female; my friendster profile view from 5 times skyrocketted to 32 times.

I bet her ex-bf clicked on our profiles numerous times to see if our status have changed. WaaHahahahahah!! XD

And so, on 16th of April, we met up with ML at Mid Valley Megamall. She came down to KL to kia kia. ^__^

Woke up pretty early on that day. Set an alarm clock, and my mobile to go off. Don't want to be late, but alas I was fated to be late T_T. But I wasn't the only one. :P

Got all ready and stuff. Parents and bro weren't home. So no one to hitch a ride to the nearest LRT or KTM station. Picked up the phone and called for a cab to Subang KTM station.

After 10 minutes, called again to check if it's coming. "Ya ya, sedang on the way." (In Malay: "Yes, Yes, it's on the way."). After 15 minutes, "Belum datang kah? Sedang on the way." ("It's not here yet? It's on the way."). After 30 minutes, I was about to call them to foggedabout the cab, but it's here!

Ran out. While opening the gate, the cab honked! WTH!! I'm already outside! Is he blind or what?? Mickey was asleep and the honk woke him up. He ran out, passed the gates and just stand there and barked at the cab!! I have to drag him back in to the compound. Stupid f!@$!ing cab driver. He told me he accidentally pressed on the honk.

Reached Subang KTM station. Was buying the tic and my mobile rang. No time to pick it up as I was getting my ticket and counting my change from the cashier. It was ML. We were suppose to meet up at KL Sentral station at 11:15am. It's now 10:45am. She's probably there and calling to see where am I or something. Call her back, preparing to die....

Actually, she called to tell me that she manage to borrow her cousin's (correct ah?) car and can pick me up from somewhere. Told her I've already got a ticket to KL Sentral. She said she can pick me up from KL Sentral. Because I dunno how to direct her to any of the KL Sentral entrance, asked her to meet up at Mid Valley Megamall. Told her that I would be late due to the earlier incident, though did not explain fully.

So, that takes care of that. To go to Mid Valley Megamall (MVMM), I actually have two choices now. 1) Take to KL Sentral, hop on the LRT and head to Bangsar and take the free bus shuttle to MVMM and 2) Go to KL Sentral, and take the Commuter to MVMM.

Option No. 2 sounds less troublesome. And I've never tried taking the Commuter train to MVMM before. So gave it a try.... it actually took longer than option No. 1. -_-"

Reached MVMM at 11:40am. Called ML. She's actually here already but looking for a parking space. Asked her where it would be convenient to meet up with her, but she asked me back the same question. Told her I'm going to the ATM machines located outside of the Jusco Supermarket, and she replied that she would meet up with me there. Ahh, hard to be a gentleman :P. Wallet's meter is pointing at "E". If you got to ask, "E"s for Empty. Met up with her while in queue. Told her what happened with Mickey.

So, let's see who are we going to meet up. Melody who's on the way, BK a bit later after her swimming session, and Fred after 3pm. ML wanted to get a card for Melody's birthday and we went to Hallmark. Damn, those Forever Friends bears looked really cute! Especially that giant white one X(!! Dropped by at MPH where she bought Da Vinci Code for her friend.

We're hungry so we went ahead to scout for food. So many food joints here... all sounded good. In the end, it was either Nandos or Fish and Co (Did I got the name correct?). The urm waitress of Fish and Co was standing outside, over hearing us, still deciding. She tried to persuade us to at least go in and have a look at the menu. Sorry, Miss. Your Jedi mind tricks only works on the weak minded. Besides, we are thinking with our stomach right now. Decided to have lunch at Nandos.

While having lunch, Melody msged ML that she forgot to bring her HK trip photos. Yeah, she went to HK!! Siok lah!! :(. And now she is "on the way" again. Seems like today I kept hearing those three words. ML showed me her new digicam. Canggih-nya o_O!! When can I have one? I guess when I buy less toys. -_-

A bit later, Melody arrived. She got a speeding ticket. Wah, don't have to be so rush kua. Showed us her photos. She's not taking lunch. Just glass of...err I forgot, a drink lah. She will be going off earlier as she needs to meet up with her friend at the gym.

And so, we took some pics together with both of our cams. ML kept going on about me being a camwhore (term nicked from Hsin)... Aiya, that is for me to tell the world ok?? :P

V^__^V
I really like this pic, though it didn't came out as great as I thought, but it's nice.


^__^
This is nice too.

Ok, these are the only pics I can show. Others, I don't have their permission to post cuz they do not know I have a blog. Oh, and there's one more pic of me which is quite ugly.

Melody kept going on and on about me, looked thinner than before. Oi vey, I've gained a few kaygees since the last time leh! Maybe it was the hair cut.

After finishing our lunch, and the digicamera fair, we went to some gal clothings shops to window shop. I'm just tagging along. When we were in MNG, goodness.... it's like I've been transported into this No Man's Land (literally), where the Amazonians roam and the only priority in this world is: clothes :P. Melody bought... something. Wasn't really paying attention to what she bought. :P

A bit later, BK joined us. Apparently she did not go swimming and have forgotten about this gathering. What a busy gal, heheh! Just when BK joined us for a while, we have to part with Melody. Time for her gym session. Macho Macho Man~ I want to be~ A Macho Man~. Since BK have not taken her lunch, we accompanied her to the Oasis food court. And after that, it's desserts at Lecka Lecka. ML treated us! Thanx! ^__^

Something happened here, in which I will leave it out. Because I'm a cold-hearted SOB. Then it's to Jusco. ML bought some Malu Malu mobile phone pouch. And a bit later, Fred came and we met up with him, had a drink and yakked at Chilis.

Eventually, it's time to part our ways. I was thinking of going to KLCC, but then I felt tired or lazy. Maybe both. So, went back home straight.

Feels a bit weird blogging about something which one of my readers are physically there.

ML, next time I treat you that NEw Zealand whteveritscalled ice cream lah. ;)

Another Point Of View

Had lunch with that new girl who joined us some months ago. We were talking about previous jobs and then it was my turn, I told her how I met Kar Cher and how the 1st and the 3rd (current) job was introduced by her.

I was like: blablabla gratefull blablabla twice already blabla

And she said: Probably she owed it to you in the previous life.

Me: Ehh?

She: Yeah, she owes you. She couldn't return the favour in the previous life, so in this life, she's paying it back.

Me: Hmmm... that's one way of looking at it.

So, that's one way of looking at it. Never thought of that. So, whoever owes me anything in my previous life, feel free to pay back in force. It's time to pay the Piper!


Heheh, Kidding! ;P

Happy Mama's Day!

What have you planned for your mom?

Last nite, we treated Mom for dinner. Treated her in advance to avoid today's crowd.

I wanted to bring her to Chili's but Bro convinced Mom that we needed advance booking to have a table there. Told Mom that I went a couple of times and we didn't need to book. As usual, Mom listened to Bro.

So, Mom suggested to go to this place call Logenhaus at USJ Taipan. She says it should be cheaper than Chili's. She had a meal there before when her colleagues treated her for retirement dinner. Oh well.

Dad ordered the most expensive: black pepper sauce lamb, with some sort of cheese and ice water.
Me: Roasted chicken, salad with fries. Fries, hah! More on it later. Watermelon juice
Bro: Turkey with cheese, salad and fries. Fries again, bwahaha! Iced lemon tea.
Mom: Fish with cheese, salad and fries. Drinks: Chocolate float.

I ordered some nachos with cheese for everyone.

Crappy place. Don't go there. Everything just doesn't have enough taste. Not enough "oomph". My roasted chicken, only the skin tasted nice. Fries are actually potato wedges. Watermelon juice felt really diluted with water. So is Mom's chocolate float. According to Dad, his' sucked too. Mom had no comment.

Byebye Logenhaus. This is the only time I will go there.

People should listen to me more. *rolls eyes*

Destiny

When you are destined for bigger things, no one can stop you.

No one will wait for you either.

Income Tax

Hohoho! First time I did it.

For the whole month of April, mom has been constantly nagging me about it. "Have you done your Income Tax?? It's nearly end of the month!! Did you receive your EA form?? If got that means must do!". Me: "Aiya how many times you want me to say? Don't need to do lah. I didn't receive any EA form!! Mai tiam tiam luan lah."

On 28th of April, while at work going thru my junk and stuff and I noticed one piece of shitty looking paper has two very familiar letters at the top right corner. It's "E" and "A". Bolded.

O_O

Started messaging people on whether have they done it yet. LOL! Gotta admit, got freak out a bit. 4 out of 5 have not done it. Procastination rules! LOL! Called brother to see if he still has that Income Tax form that he got it for me. Yeap, he still has it.

M was nice enough to show me how it is. Even showed me the calculation. Though at that moment, I only felt it was roughly how it is but it did help alot. Thanx!

Got back and took dinner. Still not in the mood to do it. Too full. Watch 3 episodes of Gundam Seed Destiny with Bro that I've downloaded. Need to delete them off already...

After the anime, Bro was nice enough to guide me through it. Though actually he still refers to the guide book. It wasn't really that hard. Cuz I've got help and probably my life hasn't got into a more complicated stages like having a wife, owning a car, house, kids blablablah...

Bro said since he's going to Klang court on Friday, he will send it to the Shah Alam branch and drop it off at the urmm drop box for me.

I wasn't taxable. Can't beleive alot of people got taxed. Did they do it correctly? An onsite colleague got tax because she left out the RM 350 claim which everyone is entitled to. Sigh.

Oh, remember to keep your books/mags receipts! You can have a max of RM 500 deduction!

M, when do you want that cup of coffee?? ;))

Saturday, 4 Something A.M.

Feels like shit. Been feeling like this a few days now.

Not really sick, but like about to fall sick. Crap.

Slept early last nite, but forgot to take meds. Woke up at around 3:30 A.M. feeling very lousy. Just took meds, as usual, waiting for it to kick in and go back to sleep. So, thought I blog a lil, or whine a lil.

It's Raining Again....

*queue music*

Chatting

Hasn't been feeling like "The King of The World" lately. Not exactly down, but, nothing great.

Have been talking to ex no. 3 online alot lately. The way we talk reminds me of the earlier times when we were best of online pals. The things that we could talk about and that includes personal health problems.

Found out that, apparently her life is even more static than mine, even though she's currently attached. She's still as high maintenance as ever. Now, being high maintenance is not the worst thing in the world, but when it affects your health, seriously, there's something need to be done. Like change how you view on life, dealing with problems and such.

Seriously, do you really need to stress out on what may or may not happen tomorrow? Anyway, to prevent it? Prevent it. No? Any way to solve it when it happens? Solve it. No? We have to face the music and learn from it so that it never happens again. It's not like I am damn good at managing my problems, but I try. God knows I've tried.

I thought when she left me, at least she would be better, happier...

I felt really sorry for her. Hope some day she would find her happiness.
