Dear Heart

I know you have had a rough time yesterday. Especially last night. The tossing and turning till 3 a.m. And then the nightmares which you probably no longer remember. It is good. It is good not to remember the unhappy. 

If there was any loss yesterday, it was a little bit of faith. But because you have lost so much of that, maybe that tiny bit yesterday should not matter so much. Thing is, it twisted you anyway. It was uncanny, wasn't it? From the way you shivered after Starbucks yesterday. Even though it was your favourite soyed green tea latte which was supposed to act like potion. And the hot pot place. It was playing all the songs you now hate to hear. The lyrics were exceptionally pretentious, weren't they? So it was like food therapy on one hand and heartwrenching songs on the other. In the end, the session only caused more hurt than heal. And then finally, the weeping of the sea at 10 p.m. People say, the sounds of sea waves have a therapeutic effect. Apparently, you heard nothing but a deafening silence in you. That, clearly, was not calmness. It was void. 

But I know, you are only going to get better. Do not forget the daily reminders you set yourself. The consistency you promised. If being grateful helps, then be grateful.

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…
