Ugh, I got sick. And because of that, I woke up at 8 am today (90 minutes before I was supposed to wake up), then I felt…horrible for the rest of my long Wednesday. I missed watching Before Sunset at the UC. Sigh. JEW tomorrow, hopefully I\’ll feel better tomorrow.

So big question of the month: how do you reach someone who doesn\’t want to be reached? That is, how do you contact someone who doesn\’t pick up her phone? Who doesn\’t answer her e-mails? Who deleted her blog? And journals? Deleted her friendster profile? And deleted her orkut profile? And never goes on AIM anymore. And she who lives more than 8 hours from me. How do you reach someone who purposefully disappeared without any word? And how do you find out if she\’s ok? How do you reach someone who you had considered to be a (best) friend, but decided to disappear completely? How do you that?

Ironically, last year I had wondered (pessimistically) about how I could disappear and people wouldn\’t notice. Ultimately, that\’s not true. There\’s always someone watching, keeping tabs on you. You will be missed on the message boards, the blogs, and the journal comments. You will be missed for your input, your words. And the difference you used to make.

  1. And thus the creation of the field known as private investigation. Though when the world gets wired enough, on one will be able to escape.

  2. Get betta. As for myself, I\’ve been sick for over a month, but I\’m gradually getting rid of this stupid cough.

  3. It makes me sad that she\’s gone :( I miss her, but erally hope she\’s found something that makes her happy, rather than reminding her of the past.
