Brightest corner of my mind.

I've always been known as one with really good memory. I remember dates and numbers really well. Maybe, remembered, cos' I figured I am slowly losing this flair. Joel once told me that short-term memory becomes long-term when memories are being put into rehearsals. In other words, if you bother to remember something, you will always bear them in mind. And perhaps that is why I've always managed to memorize good friends' numbers and birthdays. Hence, it is true that you can achieve something when you put in the effort.

What is the brightest corner of your mind?

For me, I do not really know. Maybe I should say, as of now, the brightest portion remains as the J2 school walkway and a very close-knitted family when I was a lot younger. For the latter, there is nothing I want to talk about it because some changes are irreversible.

For the former, I guess there is something I can do about it. I was struck by something Storm said to Logan when I watched X-Men 3 just now, "Are you ready to do what you need to do when the time comes?" I am not sure what the right time is. Perhaps the time has always been here, because it never really went away. I know I have always been holding back, because I hate the feeling of having to lose every single bit of that attachment, that familiarity.

I know it is a fight between the rational and the subconscious. And I have yet to genuinely come to terms with myself. Now as a rational self, I have realised that forgetting a mobile number is certainly a good start. I do not like to be rushed, and I do not like to be influenced into doing something that takes time. I am going to do this all on my own, now.

Are you with me?

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…
