Rest my case.
















Suddenly feel freer with most of the assignments done:) I am a accomplished person these days! Ok shan't be complacent, must continue to work hard.

Was doing my readings for history tutorial. Realised there are quite a lot of controversies going on with regard to Emperor Wu Zetian. Seriously why point fingers at her? I mean yes she was cruel, she killed her children, she had a lot of guys surrounding her, but do all these alone make her a horrid person because she is a woman? A man could have a few concubines but a woman could not? The other emperors, like Tang Taizong, killed their own flesh and blood or kins to survive in the palace. Why do people seem to argue more when Wu Zetian did the same? Just because she's a woman so she shouldn't be doing all these?
If that's the case, then apparently some people still think that men have superiority over women and should enjoy more rights in having more wives rather than women have more than one husband.
Ridiculous.

Nonetheless, I really like this topic because it's real exciting and fun to argue over such subjects LOL

On CNY

This CNY, I realised many things. I realised I have always envied families who go out as a whole for CNY visiting, or those who invite many relatives and friends over. I realised I am very afraid of the coming of CNY because CNY simply means watching movies and slacking at home for me. I love to watch movies, there is no doubt about that. Perhaps I just don't appreciate the latter because there is so much to face head-on. I hate the silence or otherwise awful hurlings at the dining table. I hate how I need to pretend to be hospitable to people I dislike. This year, I hid in my room when people I did not feel comfortable with came, then I was accused of being stubborn and impolite. Sometimes I really wonder if being myself is of imperative or being polite is. Whichever the case, I want to confess that I really feel tired and unhappy this CNY. The worst is that I feel that no one can understand because everyone I tried to rant this to tells me I should go home because it is CNY after...

On campus,

I think even if I were to leave after this semester, I would probably leave with the fondest memories. What more can I ask for? On a side note, I hope and I choose to believe that my true friends will understand, and so I do not want to explain. Today is my best friend's birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY BF! I know you know I am damn stubborn and rebellious and whiny and spoiled and noisy and choosy but you always compromise with me and give in to me in every way you can. Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! I hope you will always be happy because you deserve to be. I hope you will gamble less so that you can treat me food more often. I hope you will be blessed because you are special :) I know I am such a sweet best friend! 加油了GL,不要再蹉跎歲月了…
