I always believe that you will get to know the true colours of someone in difficult, stressful and demanding times. It is really amazing to find out who will stand by you and are responsible towards their obligations at these times.
I have had a very interesting day today, just by observing the world around me. I saw how my classmates reacted towards special people when we had to handle individuals from MINDS. I was actually disgusted by some who cannot appreciate another special creation of God's. They are no less different from us. They are, like us, God's gift.
In addition, I also learnt more about my fellow bandmates as I observed them preparing for our seniors' farewell dinner this Friday. Everyone has got other commitments too. For some, there are more. However, I am truly amazed at the fact that 16/17 year olds do not know how to set their priorities right. Yes, I know, jobs have been delegated, but what is wrong about helping others who are in need? Afterall, they are your fellow bandmates, and we are all in this together.
To Dorothy, I hope you are fine, do not be too stressed over everything, alrigt?! Cheer up, girl!
Anyway, after we completed preparing the entire doorgifts, John and I went home together, and we talked about stuffs. He told me about this two-way mutual thing, which I totally disagree. Well, of course I did not tell him that. Instead I just went along and play around by his words. You shall understand why later.
Anyway, in this world right now, everyone is just so stubborn. Two-way thing doesn't work anymore. Sweet talk is not the way to go. You have just got to be strong and swallow the agony on your own.
I have learnt that if circumstances are not by your side, withdraw! There is no point going forth, and cause damage to everyone. I would rather swallow the agony on my own, then going through the hassle of having my thoughts heard. Just like in John's case. No point letting your thoughts heard. It may hurt the other party. In turn, both party suffers. Hence, what is the point?
There are definitely a thousand and one things which I am upset about. About how things are not done in the way I believe it is supposed to be done and so on. However, does it matter? Who am I to question the authority? Anyway, it is something which I learn from the education system. Guidelines have been set for you, just follow it. No questions ask. Even if it is something utterly disgusting which I had to digest. It is only when I get out of the system that I start to do things the way I want. In that way, nobody gets hurt.
People always ask to feedback about themselves so that they can improve. As for me, whenver somebody ask me that, I never entertain such people. I totally do not see the point of doing so. If a person truly wants to improve herself, she will have to take her own mirror. No point asking people for feedback, if they themselves refuse to do some self- reflection.
Argh! Digressing. There is so much for me to say. Then again, I do not like my thoughts to be heard.
