:)

Today's a stark contrast to yesterday's heavy mood. Perhaps the workload has been a little too much to grapple with lately. But yes, it's a simple day today and I am really, really contented.
 
The day started with a lecture which I wasn't really listening to. I was dozing off the whole time and frankly was waiting for the end of it. But lunch was great with a bunch of friends. Like Mic said, it's been some time since we lunched together in such a big group. I don't exactly like being in a big group all the time but maybe I need that number recently because most of the time I find myself alone while rushing my readings or assignments. And so I am thankful.
 
I had managed to finish my book review in 45 minutes and I really thought it was badly done. At a risk of getting a scolding, I went to see LL for consultation thereafter.
Phew! He seemed to be in a good mood, and there of course, I came out of his office, unscathed ;)
 
Yanli and I rushed down to JJ to visit mainly Dr. Yee and other teachers. I admit, though, that my main purpose was to reminisce the old times by revisiting the various details in the school. It was still that barely ventilated and yellowish concourt, that seemingly endless four-hundred metres running track, and that sky that ever seemed so cloudy, but only when looked at on the running tracks. Nowhere else. Not to forget, before we left I stole a glance of that stretch to the porch which I didn't manage to walk today since we were in a rush to leave. That stretch where we met, again. After 4 years. Maybe I will come back again soon. I had missed it so much. Some say, it is not wise to live in the past. However, I think as time passes, I have learnt to live in it in a more positive manner (or perhaps simply because I am in good mood today) than before, so I might just continue to live in it and with it.

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…
