内心疏远 足够秒杀 外表多浓烈


Studying
06 July 2015 July 06, 2015
So, i've finally made the decision. I'm going back to school!

I've applied, and got accepted, into NTU. My 'dream' school.

Couse-wise, the same. Computer Engineering. With Business Minor. So i've heard the horror stories of 60 hours per week, and studying for more than your life, and also dying from assignments.

Before I left office (for the last time), my supervisor was like 'good luck'.

T_T

But honestly, im actually quite scared. Not for schoolwork, I've been in shit before. Even if i cant handle it, at least I have the experience? Haha.

But... its more about the culture, and the 'age-gap'. After all, I have been out of a school environment for 2 years. All of my lifestyle, my attitude, the people i hang out with, it's just.... different.

Im so worried that I wont be able to talk to them, or I wont be able to blend in, or what if we just dont click?

And most of all, my worry is that they would be boring, nerdy, un-fun.

After all, I AM in an Engineering school. With many boys. Little to no girls. Not that im complaining. I've always clicked better with dudes.

But now, my circumstances is.... a little different. Hahahahhahaha. #ifyouknowwhatimean

So yeah, I guess i'll have to wear my ring everyday.

But yes, *sigh*, i am worried.


Day 02 — A movie you want to see.

Day 02 - A movie you want to see.

'Saving Private Ryan'

Actually, my father has this movie. But I never had the interest to watch it at all. But my father has always loved the show, and I believe, has watched the film many times.

So why the sudden interest? Recently, I realized the true meaning of the movie. A brief overview of the story:
The Normandy Invasion was starting in the US. Many young men were sent to war. A general in Washington DC, was informed that 3 out of 4 brothers in the Ryan family died in war, and that their mother was to receive all three Bixby letters (a consoling letter from Abraham Lincoln) on the same day. The general then ordered that the last Ryan boy be found and sent home. Thus begins the dangerous journey of a group of men to bring Private Ryan home.

So.... what sparked off my interest was compassion.

Compassion in the general, given to the Ryan family, to order that the last Ryan boy be found. Sent home, to his mother, to give her a little comfort in the knowledge that she still has one son.

Compassion in the group of men, given to the Ryan family, as well as Private Ryan, so much that they could risk their lives for a family that is not related to them.

And also, sorrow in Private Ryan's life - knowing that his brothers were dead, and knowing that people had died (some men died along the way to find him), just for his life. Just so that he could live. He had to deal with the guilt, sorrow, and confusion in his heart. All while still holding the front line of defense for his country.

How would he have felt at that time? How... would you have felt?

Day 01 - Your Favourite Quote

 “People shouldn’t dwell on the past. It’s enough to try your best in all that you’re doing now.” – Aya  

This quote is from the drama, 1 Litre of Tears. The main lead, Ikeuchi Aya is based on a real Japanese girl, Aya Kito, who suffered from spinocerebellar ataxia. This is a rare, progressive, degenerative and genetic disease attacks the nero cells of the brain, and slowly, the patient will lose coordination with their movement, hands, legs and speech. Currently, there is no cure for this disease.

The cruelty of this disease was that it was degenerative, and progressive. You could do nothing, except watch the disease worsen over time. But Aya faced on all of the obstacles. She bravely walked on, facing everything with a positive mind. She let the past go, walking on to a better future.

And its true. Dwelling on the past makes no difference to your future. It cannot be changed. Living in the past, only hinders you from the future. In the end, you will only be a shadow of your own reflection, living in the knowledge that you made yourself turn out this way.

 Even though regrets may linger, but we should never let it distract us from the now. We should pack up our emotions, feelings and thoughts. Carry it as part of us, but never a core of us. The now, is key. The now, brings us where we want to go.

 Doing things that you can do now, to the best of your ability is the best way to remember your past. Although I agree that the past can never be forgotten, I do believe that we can rethink the way we look at the past instead. To be a better memory, a better 'burden'.

Pack up everything, and walk on to a better future, starting from now.
