i was just saying in the last post that the house comp had some problem, the next day, it completely crashed and did not turn on at all. damn sians.

but then now there's a new comp.

which is kinda. hmm.

cos it's a dilemma regarding the feelings i should have about it. cos. well it's complicated.

today i went through briefly, an argumentative essay question with my students - "Who have to deal with more problems, the young or the adults?" and it got me thinking quite a bit, and i had to stop myself from talking too much on it.
possible stands: 1. young have more problems 2. adults have more problems 3. they both have equal amount (quantity/quality) of problems.
and i came up with another stand - that technically the adults seem to have more problems, but their problems actually do impact the young and cause them to have their problems. (or smth along those lines)

Somehow, i have thought about this. but then parents do play a big part in creating the problems for their kids. it's hard not to blame my parents, while i do still care for them at the same time.

i know that one should not blame any other for the things that happen to oneself. but then it's damn hard. cos.

i think. i have scolded myself many times, for not studying harder, not thinking harder, not scoring, and everything. but then. it made me lose a lot of confidence in myself. and i think there's still a big portion of me in this way.
there are many times i think about it, about how i used to do things, how i used to be considerably good in my studies and so on. and then compare that to what and where i am now. which is really kinda depressing. Although i tried to tell myself it's not entirely my fault, it's what the adults did that led me and my sis into this situation.. then again i start looking down on myself.. cos i know that there are people who can be in more difficult situations, but still do well. so like. how come i'm not one of them?

its damn easy to blame the people around me. to run away. to give up.

but it's also damn hard. to be standing on that line. hovering. pondering. hesistating. unusure of what to do and what is to come.

there's nothing. to make me focus on one thing.

i would like to focus on my studies.. but it so hard. it's easy to blame it on family, blame it on work..

there's nothing to make and help me focus on that. but i can't balance them well either.

if i could, i would and will be that pillar, that person to help my sis focus too.
if we could, we will be able to help each other focus. but because both of us are facing the same problem, both of us lack the ability to give up all and just focus on studies, or maybe we simply lack the true opportunities unlike others, to focus on just one thing.

it makes me. anxious and worried, and 彷徨无助.
i can't find the courage. or the perserverence any more.

i wish we could do better. can we? are we able to?

we are 21 years already.

3rd year in university.

but.. our lives from 18 years old to now...seem all blurry.

i'm not ready to jump into another different situation.

it doesn't help that every day we get reminded somehow.

there are still things that i hold onto which i should properly let go.

i grew up sometimes thinking i'm a baggage. now i feel like i have a lot of baggage.

there were once i thought that its possible. possible to work towards ur dreams. then i realised dreams would only stay as dreams.

i wish i was just a normal innocent kid, having nothing to worry or care about..

anyways.

chinese new year... this year.. wasn't very good..

it was actually more on the bad side.

except for the one day when some good friends came over and spent time with us.
i'm grateful for them.

REFLECTIONS

I sit and cry thinking of all the regrets
How life seems to be always unfair.
I move on putting any dreams away
Hoping that I'll find them come some rainy day.
No matter how tired and weary
I will walk on.
