I Hate Loneliness, But It Loves Me
Hello Livejournal!...or should I say good morning? =P It is indeed a late hour to be writing here, but I was drawn to write tonight...as odd as that sounds.
I'm up rereading One Piece...I started yesterday and I am on chapter 81, entitled "Tears". It's probably one of my favourite chapters and arcs, the Arlong Park saga. It deals with Nami and her backstory, where she ends up working for the antagonist (Arlong) and makes a promise with him that if she can collect 100 billion beli (the currency) she will buy Cocoyashi village and they won't bother her again. She doesn't want anyone else to be killed because of her. Her mother sacrificed her life so Nami and her sister could live, and Nami wants to protect Cocoyashi village, her home, from Arlong. There's a lot more backstory but it's so complex and beautifully executed for me to do any justice to. I think I like this chapter because of Luffy's character, actually. He doesn't make any assumptions about Nami and no matter what, he agrees to help her and believes in her as a person. It does help that I'm a big LuffyxNami fan, although One Piece will probably not spawn any romance aside from the romance of a person's dream. I've got quite a few chapters left to go through, but this is just one of my favourites that I felt like mentioning =)
Speaking of manga, if you keep up with Bleach, you'll know that my LJ entry title is from the most recent Bleach chapter. It's been a while since I've seen a Bleach title that I've been fond of, and usually it has quite unique chapter names. I like that sort of unique way with words, where you can look at many different perspectives of it and always find a good conclusion with it. But maybe I'm reading too much into it ^_^;
I really don't know what I'm still doing up. I can't sleep tonight. There's just something that keeps nagging me at the back of my head saying "If you close your eyes, you'll let your thoughts consume you."
When I try falling asleep, I like thinking about things. I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but I review my day, or week, or month, or year, or sometimes my whole life. All this thinking keeps me awake in the night, and I end up just making myself disappointed with how I let things be. I am a weak person who falls apart far too easily. But I am strong enough not to give up if I let myself fall. But I've always said that the safest place in my world is my bed right before I sleep, with my thoughts, but I think I've made it dangerous with too many thoughts. I don't know. I'm not making much sense. I think I'm still up because I want to tire myself out, so I can fall asleep without thinking too much.
