It has been a long period of time since... It was only recently I've got time to do anything else other than homework. As a result, a lot of things have been neglected, a lot of catching up on to do...A busy week, that's for sure. But what's more important is what I've learnt during this particular week that could be a turning point. It's nothing much special actually, but the significance hit me hard, it was as if standing on top of an earthquake epicentre. Humans never really count their blessings when it gets added to their list of fortunes continuously. Humans never really count their blessings...until it starts getting subtracted. I found myself to never really have appreciated the people around me, well, I laugh and smile with them as usual, but deep down, my mind was insisting on treating them as people I'm supposed to communicate with, and I'm also supposed to have fun and laugh together with them. Note the use of 'supposed'. I never really thought about them as, well...real people. Sounds weird, I don't know how to put it across without sounding blunt. Might as well leave it at that then...To all my friends, please don't feel offended, I still like you all. -Smiles gently-
This isn't the first time people have commented about me not smiling enough, but today a friend told me about it again. And once again, this also hit me hard. The irony of it being, I've told people before to live life hapilly, but what about myself? I've never really thought about that... It's like, I'm smiling more nowadays, but it's sort of forced, I don't feel comfortable doing it. Perhaps I was born not to be able to produce a genuine smile. Wonder if that day ever comes when that smile emerges? I have no idea why I am becoming so aware of these stuff recently. They've been there all along, thrown straight into my face, but I've chose to ignore them and thus chose to degrade the quality of my life. It's like everything in my vision has became sharper and clearer...
That aside... Well, finally I'm going to watch one of William Shakespeare's play this coming 31st March at the Esplanade, can't wait. Even though this is the first time I'm watching one of his plays, I was already an avid fan of him from the past. Partially because I share the same name 'William' as him. Haha, just kidding.
Hmm, my birthday's coming up, on the first of April (It's April Fool's Day, I know, don't rub it in.) and I still haven't decided what to do on that day... Perhaps I'll think harder. ^^
Just saw my class photo for this year! The tie didn't look half bad, hmm...lol.
Currently writing an essay,
...Humans may have learnt to count in complex algorithms and formulas, but they've never really bothered about counting the amount of people who're important to them.
