Food for thought
Well well, it's the long-awaited vacation period now! Yeah, I can finally have my much needed rest and catch up with those that I need to.
Had a soccer session with the Kranji peeps at CCK, and boy, it was a hell lot of fun!! Had a great time catching up and of course playing rounds of soccer. It has been like some years since I played with them and to say I miss their company will be an understatement. Playing at the lam soon court, and even the journey to the place, brings back many wonderful memories. How we regularly used to play after school, during saturdays and holidays... yesterday's meet certainly brought back memories of the good ol' days. Although I'm having aches all over my body now, the time spent yesterday was truly worth it. It has been about 10 years since we knew each other, and the bond that we share have stayed strong. It's heartening to see all the quarrels and squabbles still present between the peeps, coz without those things, the group will never be the same. hah!
While on the way back, a friend from the group mentioned something that somehow 'enlightened' me. He said that "...we have to work hard coz we are not like those students from (enter your well-known schools here)..." Being in the uni now, I thought to myself how true that sentence is! That being said, I also have came to realise that for some stuffs, no matter how hard we 'normal' average people have worked, we can never compare our intelligence with those who have superior brains. For the last few years, I've grown up thinking that if we worked hard, everything is possible, including getting as good results as those genuises. Now, I think I'm wrong. Nonetheless, I will still continue to work hard. But this time, it won't be to compete with all the smart people around me. This time, the only person I'll be competing with will be myself. Life is precious, I don't have time to get all stressed up just because I've scored lower marks that my smart friends. As long as I've kept improving myself, I'll be satisfied.
Before I leave, let me wish all mums Happy Mother's Day!!

There are probably only 2 reasons why someone wouldn't want or initiate a conversation with you. Firstly, they are too busy with their own stuffs. Secondly, they are not interested to talk to you. I used to be good at my guesses. But now, it seems I don't have a clue. I'm not sure why it has to happen this way or what wrong have I done. I'm getting tired of initiating each time and if the reason is the lack of interest, then I guess I have to stop what I'm doing. I guess it's not worth it when people don't appreciate what you've done and don't even welcome the idea of being friends with you. Sometimes, it's hard to be a friendly person.. for some people do not even appreciate your friendly gestures...
