deliberate isolation

I vaguely remember jonlee telling me this - that there will be times that Im tired or not in top shape and i search for comfort in the people i spend a lot of my time with (ie arrow students) but i shouldnt because i ought not to be dependent on them for certain emotional gaps. Though now in a slightly different context, i am forcing myself into a lockdown in my room while i get over this strange mix of tiredness and desire for familiar intimacy. On a completely different note, this is what happened after i typed up my previous post: crazyman suddenly taps my shoulder and commands me to "get off the phone!! you've been on it the whole time!!" i put it aside but i also told him that i was reading. He raised his eyebrow. And i told him that i could get books on my phone. And we ended up having a pleasant albeit short discussion on the boon and bane of mobile phones. I think there are certain things that Melbourne has taught me well :) thanks for reminding me that he is also another (hu)man.. Just slightly crazier than me. (f. I think i will join the boys on tuesdays.)
