-KHAN-
In the cold, sitting in the ger, he huddled close to his mother for warmth.
"Why did they do such mother?"
The mother stared down into his eyes, and replied, "Because they fear us little one. They fear that you may one day stand up to claim your birth right. So they seek to extinguish our family name."
His elder brother spoke up, "But they will never. The sky father will lead us."
Even as the mother smiled, he could see the lack of faith in her eyes.
He could see she thought they were as good as dead. Alone on the steppes, left without the tribe and to fend for themselves, the chances were slim.
"I promise you one thing mother."
She looked back at the smaller boy in front of her.
"I promise I will kill every last one of them. I will rule bordered by oceans, and the world will never forget my name. I will destroy the enemies of our ancestors, and unite this land. I will burn and pillage all other tribes, and one day rule this world. Then everyone will tremble at my name."
His mother stared in wide-eyed disbelief at the conviction and strength behind the voice.
"I WILL be khan. Then they will know to fear Temujin, son of the Wolves."

-AFTERMATH-
in the aftermath of the war, there are no winners or losers,
just people who have lost less.

-HARDWORK-
Lionel-inspired post. LOL.
---
I think i noe why i have such an aversion to people with no motivation or hard work.
Simply because I know you can achieve ANYTHING if u put ur mind to it. If you decide to do something, don't whine about it, just do it because i noe that i could do it myself.
I think it is a lack of empathy; or too much of it that makes me come to that conclusion. Exams are never hard; you just don't study enough. There is never not enough money; you just don't work enough (Ergo, don't be picky, work at Maccas). There're a million things to complain about, which could be solved if you just shut the fuck up and started doing things.
I think i now understand why lionel detests people that don't work hard. It's probably his influence that led me to this as well.
When things don't go your way, change it. don't sit around and whine about it. Everything can be changed with hardwork.
I have not had the experience of being handicapped fortunately, unlike a close friend of mine. So before you complain about how shitty ur life is, please, think for awhile.
At least you can walk/run/do things as a fully-able bodied person.
I was brought up in a family where money DIDN'T fall from trees. I watched my dad work 9 to 5 to be able to give me an education overseas. Nothing was handed to him on a platter, and nothing was handed to me on a platter except for my education. I guess that's where i learnt not to take things for granted and learnt money stems from hard work. Oh, you didn't need to go through that? Very good, you very privileged. now fuck off.
Sure, there're easier ways to earn money, like pyramid schemes or real estate, both of which require capital.
Which hasn't been handed to me.
So please, for the love of God and for the sake of everyone, work hard and don't complain.

-LETTERSTRANGERTREBUCHETSPACESUBWAYCOMMUNICATEOMISSIONPAIR-
here we go, these are all the words i've missed. i won't miss one again sago (exams are pretty much OVER!)
---LETTERS---
Have you ever looked at a word so much that it starts to deform in front of you? Like the letters in it don't seem to make sense anymore, like they were just letters to begin with and not words? Call me weird, but I know if i type/read/write a word too much it just becomes a bunch of letters and i get confused at what i'm actually writting.
---STRANGER---
Strangers represent a whole new world; there are no strangers in this world, just friends you haven't made. I love meeting strangers, and learning more about them. I intend to go back and listen to folk stories of my home town, probably from my maid.
---TREBUCHET---
The weapons of destruction of choice, the counterweights dragging loads across hundreds of meters. I always wanted to build a miniature trebuchet. Maybe I'll go into bunnings and get some material one day. LOL.
---SPACE---
Its funny how we're looking to space to increase the amount of land we can colonise; why don't we just take care of the Earth?
---SUBWAY---
I had subway twice this week. (:
---COMMUNICATE---
"All the words you never say, all the things we'll never do, and all the times we'll never have". For lack of communication. Communication is the most underrated and important facet of life; without it, civilization would be in ruins.
---OMISSION---
i noe what it feels like to be omitted from JEFF'S FAREWELL DINNER
---PAIR---
there are no perfect pairs.
---LETTERS---

-know-
you know what?
all things left unspoken
all things left to fester
all things left to destroy
all things spoken out of turn
and all things that cause hurt
intentional, or unintentional,
still hates.
