this year has been different. a lot of things have changed, compared to a year ago. have things changed for the better? well, i guess they have. i hope they have. i'm not really sure. i'm never really sure.
one thing i learned - you never really know who you are or who you will be until you lose yourself and forget who you used to be. forgetting, letting go has always been difficult, but that's how it's supposed to be. '08 has been some sort of.. renewal. at some point, i got lost. i must have gotten caught up too much in what i was doing that i forgot who i was. you never really know you're caught up in something until you've gotten yourself in too deep. everything became dull, meaningless, a routine. it was a very unpleasant and confusing experience, but getting out of it gave me a better perspective.
trust is another lesson of '08. it's not something you just give away. and when you break it, there's no quick fix. i'm guilty of this, but seriously, some people can stoop really low. ahaha.
so, what's in store for 2009? the last 3 months of hell Junior year. college apps. acp. debate.
many things i've done in the past year have gone out of course unexpectedly, and if there's one thing to pick up from that, it's to not repeat the same mistakes.

| random thought. |
[Nov. 20th, 2008|10:53 pm] |
Random thought # 1: I find it depressing that everybody seems to notice is how the world is so twisted, how it's so troubled, and yet it takes very special individuals to turn those problems around. Unfortunately, we're all in shortage of very special individuals.
A few months ago, i noticed a problem. Other people noticed the same problem, too. At first, it was really troubling. But after awhile, the indifference and apathy just started to settle and people stopped caring. It would occasionally be brought up in a conversation here and there, but other than that, nobody was really doing anything. So much for "unity". Haha. Being the optimistic person that I am (lol), I see huge potential for value-formation in this problem. It's teaching me how to be the better person and how to walk away. Which is good. Right? :))
Random thought # 2: Impulse is powerful. It goes against your better judgment, but you do it anyway. One impulsive decision done in a span of 5 seconds will end up bothering you for 5 months. Great. |

I guess I was right about you after all. "Deceit" must be your favorite word. :)) you'll probably never get back what you lost. It's just a matter of time before people see through that mask.
As for you. Well, let sleeping dogs lie. Stop being a black hole of misery which sucks everybody else in.
I am at fault. But so are you. |

| | contemplative | ] | It's the last official day of our semestral break today, but I'm gonna be out until November 10 for PSDC. Before I talk about PSDC, well, I'll talk about some other stuff.
I had some.. one-fifth-life crisis a few weeks ago. It's like a midlife crisis, except it happens at one-fifth of your life instead of at the middle. It's some fancy term a little girl made up for me. Haha. And, quite unfortunately, I had to realize the full extent of this "crisis" on a relatively unique day. Prior to that day, I already knew that it was there, I felt it there, but I just didn't know what it was until then. When somebody asked me "How was your day?", the typical answer should've been "Great. :P" or "Pretty okay. :D", but I took a while to answer. The answer was quite uncharacteristic. I said, "terrible, actually."
( Expectation. )
( Purpose. )
( ta-da! )
Okay, that was.. long. But, anyway.
PSDC! I'm really nervous. Here's to hoping that I do well.

"What they basically said was polished turd. It's polished, but no matter what you do, turd is still turd"
It was quite disappointing. We did better then expected, but still. I really would've been able to accept what happened if it had been justified properly. there's always next time. Sorry there are some people I let down. |
