damn cool!!
Thursday
My ‘big’ day
Was talking to my brother and mentioned about my birthday. Looking at how people in my clique celebrate birthdays, by right I should seriously kena lotsa shit. But think again, I don’t have any memory on my birthday last year, not at all… Did the Haitian wipe my memory? Highly impossible. Checked my blog archive, no record of any sort. Only found one entry on 24th Nov about exams. Was I that hardworking that I did not celebrate my birthday in any way? Don’t think so. But why do I not remember anything about my birthday last year? Seriously strange.
Honestly, I’m not that close to my clique. Even though I call it my clique, it’s more of a dinner clique. Sometimes I just find myself not on the same frequency as them. But well, as the master Jia Wei has said, “aiya, give and take la”, compromising is important in friendship. Even though at times some people are just screwed up because they don’t compromise, we just have to fit in. That’s the world that we are living in. We are all social beings. Socialization is a part of life, for without it, we wouldn’t be complete. We depend on others to live, regardless of whether they are nice people, or screwed up people. It was not until recently that I realize that fitting in is more important that trying to influence people to think like me.
That might explain why I don’t remember anything about my birthday last year. Was it because they didn’t celebrate with me? Or maybe I went home? I don’t know, cuz I seriously don’t remember anything about it.
Tuesday
I lost my temper, for a moment, when I lost to computer by 2 points. I don’t know why. It was just a game. But I lost it, for that split second. I don’t understand.
One hit wonder
Shouldn’t be wrong to say that this is a one hit wonder by him, well, at least to me. But I love this song.
Monday
What if…
Sometimes I wonder, what if parents didn’t send me to Singapore to study when I was 13. Who will I be now? What would I be studying now? What would’ve been my interest now? What kind of music will I like now? How will my singing sound like? What would be my relationship with my brother now? Will I be as independent as I am now? Will I be blogging in English or Chinese now? What would holidays be like without my 4P brothers? Will I even know the study of Sociology? Will I even be aware of the existence of Eusoff Hall?
Guess I wouldn’t be doing anything to do with arts. I will still be interested in basketball. May not like Japanese and Western food as much because I would’ve been eating at home and it will mostly be Chinese food? I would’ve listened to mostly Chinese music. I will still be singing Chinese songs mostly. I might be closer to my brother, or might quarrel more with my brother. I wouldn’t have been as independent as I am now. I would’ve been blogging in Chinese. I would’ve been having holidays with my other groups of friends that I made in Malaysia. And I don’t think I will ever know what Sociology and Eusoff Hall are.
Almost everything in my life would’ve been different if I wasn’t sent to Singapore. Almost nothing will be retained considering i was 13. Will it be for the better? Or for the worse? No one will ever know the answers to these questions. It takes a time machine or Hiro Nakamura’s ability to find out.
Nevertheless, I am satisfied with my life now, mostly. And I did not regret coming to Singapore one bit. Although it wasn’t an easy process, and i think it will never be one, but who said life would be easy? It wasn’t my choice, it was made for me by my parents, but I want to thank my parents for making the right choice for me.
Wake up call
Guess today's injury on my knee is a wake up call from above. No more basketball already, at least until after exams. Need to buckle up and have discipline.
And the whole relationship thing, it feels kinda weird. Don't know whether it's me or what. I am happy, but at times I don't know what to do. Guess it's because it's new to me. Hopefully everything will turn out right.
Sunday
Knee Cap
Hopefully it will heal after exam.
Tuesday
Flu
I appreciate the warm weather
I appreciate bee hoon soup 清汤
I appreciate hot drinks
I turn my fan speed to 1 or 2 out of 5
I don't really feel like eating oily food
Vege appeals more to me than meat
I guess it takes some unprecedented changes in your life to make you appreciate things that you normally don't.
