After another year of medic life, my life has turned almost completely medic, leaving less and less time for music, photography, writing and sports. Writing is the first to go, if you still haven't noticed. Friends I still cannot believe how fortunate i am, being able to make true friends at the age of 20. true friends who are willing to point out what i've done wrong, who're willing to TAKE THE RISK of offending me just to bring me back on track, and not just smiling at me and say well done and watch me fall. There are even friends who never hesitated to open up to me, who was then a stranger to them.There are friends that never cease to inspire me. I am thankful. In the past 3 months, i have learnt a great deal about myself. I was bossy and over-meticulous. I was too passive at times, and too much of a control freak at other times. And worse still, i was way too frank. ______________________________ Honesty i LOVE it when people tell me what they are actually thinking, even when it's supposed to hurt my feelings. It is only by knowing what i've got wrong can i do better next time. and i always believe doing better is more important than feeling good. The thing is, i ASSUMED the world thinks alike, which of course is bullshit. It is this one thought, that got me into thousands and thousands of troubles. Of course i will be happy if my work/effort is appreciated. but i will be happier, if that appreciation is real instead of a menifestation of a socially required courtesy. i'm better now. i still insist that lying is wrong. but i'm less honest now, like the rest of the world. this is not supposed to happen, but i don't wanna be sentenced to death. ________________________________ i usually don't think about HOW TO DEAL WITH friends until i met this one Give and take, give and take. Where shall i strike my equilibrium with you? i dun wanna step over the wrong line at the wrong time. |
