I’m saddened. Saddened by how skin color plays a role in judging a person’s character. Stereotyping is a really bad thing. Do not judge people by how they seem to be on the outside. Ever. God made skin colors a form of protection against the rays of the sun, not a form of discrimination. Why discriminate God’s creations? Aren’t we all? *sigh* ; - ;
Life’s been really nice these past week. Its like, why think of the things you are not looking forward to, rather than spending that exact same amount of thought energy to think of things that you CAN look forward to? Some people’s just saying like, ‘Life sucks!’ and stuff, just because they have to attend a really boring lecture daily or piled with tons of school assignments.
I used to do that exact same thing. Boring lectures, assignments, and DAMN that was really depressing. Everyday I had to drag my two tired feet reluctantly to school. I mean like, just how many people do the exact same thing?! Work, school. Why do we just SUBJECT our asses to such depressing cycles? I just felt that this would end somehow, but its a (near) endless cycle of depression.
We procrastinate so much. ‘I’m going to start looking at what’s with my life tomorrow’. The time to change is NOW! Man I sound like some kinda motivational guru, but really, from one man on the street to the other (man/woman) in the street/corridor/road/lane (lol), change. Now.
Start by looking forward to something nice. A dinner with a group of friends tomorrow, a movie the day after, heck, even a nice timeout by yourself just doing nothing but listening to Jazz/watch that really funky TV show you’ve been looking forward to all week/play the piano/ read a book. Just forget about all the stuff ’bout ‘Oh MAN! I have a boring lecture later. DAMN DAMN DAMN!’ and stuff.
The crux of the whole process? Don’t think how you’re gonna have a boring lecture later, think about how you have that cool movie to look forward to. It helps you a LOT. Trust me on this. I was actually a skeptic on this ‘positive thinking’ stuff. Heck, I always thought it was some kind of sham. I was like, ‘Heck, why bother?!’. Why NOT bother? A small change can go a long way sometimes. Think about it. I did lots of things I thought not possible. Losing 26kilograms (some people even find losing 3 kilograms near-impossible), swimming 30 freestyle laps continuously for one hour, heck, even playing the piano.
Its never easy to change deep-rooted behavourial actions, but once you make a little effort. Just a little effort, it goes a long way. Trust me on this. You guys (mostly) know me personally. I’m just a normal average guy (with below-average looks…kidding! :P) who lives the simple life. It’ll change your life to bits! Just trust me on that ^-^;
Ah, so, present happenings in my life. Well, watched Raising Helen wit’ Grace. Pretty good movie, I must say. Just the right balance of laughter and..uhh..non-laughter. Heh. Also, Esplanade’s ALWAYS cool! Its THE art center to be at. The really really really wonderful interiors, blended with the really really nice and comfortable seaside ambience. Its always calming just BEING there. *sigh* So nice~. To my friends who don’t know what’s the Esplanade all about, just imagine being in the pictures I’m about to show you. Its never THAT crowded, always just that right amount of people around by the sea side, and the sea breeze. Inside there’s this really nice library which has has THE ambience, facing the beautiful city skyline. Its peace I tell ya.
Also met up with some of the dudes from secondary school in a small outing on Saturday. It was a pretty interesting thing, with the amount of GOSSIP the gals had to catch up with (especially with Grace helming the whole society of gossip (KIDDING! Lolol)), it was just interesting…listening to them talking. Joe’s always cool as usual, but I don’t get this really ‘wierd’ enmity thing going on with him and Grace. Hmmmm *wonders about a certain possible ‘underlying’ theory about ‘enmity’ between guys and gals LOL*.
Ooooh also also, went to Waseda Shibuya Senior High’s Seiransai today! It was really fun~! I actually spent over 6 hours there without actually noticing time passing me by. My my, what an interesting day. So many cute girls! So many funky guys! Also, can’t forget the really cool game stations! Met many of the gang there, maybe that’s what made the day so fun: the funky friends I had. lol.
Anyway, I ended the day of with a pretty decent 2.5 hour of studying in school (its very near Waseda Shibuya High). Actually covered a decent amount of work. Cool!
Yeap, so that’s about it! Great week! Oh, so sorry Yukiyo and Hiroko sis, been reallly busy, away from com often, so I couldn’t reply to you guys in time. Oh and BOTH YA ADAMS! The Spanish one: Chill yo. Your girl’s busy with her college entrance exams. You know how Japan can screw with their students. Lol. The American one: Yo dude, been a while since I seen yaz. Just how BUSY can you get? lol. So anyways, off I go~! Jya ne!
I have to admit; this is the most active holiday I’ve had in the longest time. No more slacking at home, on the computer nor anywhere near my Playstation 2. Must be some kinda record!
Monday and Tuesday - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Stuff’s so cheap!! Food, clothing, taxi rides. Was a great trip, with my course mates from Chemical Engineerin’. It was really fun!
Wednesday - School; Final Year Project. Watched Bourne Supremacy in the evening at Orchard Road along with Naf and Grace. To top it all off, a post-movie meal at Subway. Ah. A fitting end to a great day.
Today - School AGAIN; Final Year Project. Went to celebrate Naf’s birthday at the sushi bar downtown in Heerens with Fir, Naf, Grace and Hans. Great stuff! Tempura Ice Cream rocks! Lolol. After that we actually went to take them cool sticker pics. Here’s a sample! I look really cool! hahahaha:
Ended the day with ice cream and a walk down orchard road past Takashimaya to the train station. A great Thursday. Happy Birthday Naf! Enjoy your youth while it still lasts..lol.
Yeap yeap. Ah. A great week. I just gotta rush my reports in the 3 days I have left in my holidays. LOLOL! Damn. T o T;
I’m just chilling here in my very own livin’ space, cool orange light lightin’ up the room, Aki Kuroda on the piano and to top it all up, wind blowing through my window. Its was a really cool and windy day today. Slight drizzle, but it wasn’t anything significant. Ah. Glorious Sunday. Good day for a swim too, just that there were a significant number of people at the pool, and I had to maneuver my ass around people every now and then…but hey, I’m a people person! I don’t mind at all. Heh. ^ - ^
So anyway, since I got sometime to myself whilst travellin’ to the pool, I was kinda evaluating myself. Knowing myself, I always try to, you know, please people. Accomodating is the word, I think. I also hate stuff which tend to be left open-ended. Not so much hate, just that I’d prefer things to be, you know, completed.
Take for example, in a friendship. I get into a quarrel with someone (which I rarely do, I must add. heh) We part in anger. Until we reconcile or at least talk over it, I will feel very very troubled. Its like you have something on your mind and you would like to do something about it, but you just can’t! Yeah yeah I know. The world’s not that ideal. For most of my life I’ve reconciled about 99% of my interpersonal problems. Just that 1%…I can’t do anything else! Can’t be helped I guess. You win some, you loose some. Damn I hate that philosophy, but that’s the way life is, am I not right to say that? *sigh.*
Ah, I’ll be goin on a class trip to KL tomorrow! Yay~ If you guys want anything, anything, don’t hesitate to sms/call/ MSN me a’ight? Heh. Wish me a safe journey~. Baiii~
