Title: Masks
Heyz. Hmmm... Maybe this time I should talk about myself. I believe many people see different sides of me. Some find me quiet, some find me irritating, some find me arrogant, some find me pathetic, some find me a helpful person. The list might go on (cant think of anything else now) but yeah. That's me. A person with many masks. Let's just say I tend to behave differently around different people. Well, I guess that is normal for everyone. You have to adapt to your surroudings. And the only way to do this is to have such masks for you to wear when you are in different situations. But real question is, who then is the real me? Is it the quiet studious boy, or some irritating irritator who drive others nuts or maybe I'm really the arrogant person who ignores others unless I'm required to approach them. Hmmm... many individuals have their own unique views. But for myself, what is the truth? What is my real attitude? Who am I?
Thinking about it now, I really don't know who I am. My attitude changes according to the situations I am in, just like everyone else. But what is my primary attitude? How do I behave when I'm alone and I can act without having anyone around me. That might be my weakness. I do not know who I am. Yes I know my name but what is my real personality in me. Behind all the masks I wore, how does the real face looks like? At the moment, that face seems to be a blank face. No eyes, no nose, nothing. A blank face. Either that face is shrouded by an invisibility cloak or spell and cannot be revealed by a Revealer or whether there is just no face there at all, I do not know. I know my purpose in life. I have my goals. I have an idea of the path to that goal. But I believe I'm lacking the most basic question of all. Who am I as a person? Has my path really been catered to my personality, which is still unknown to me. If it is not an appropriate path, what is my goals then? Nevertheless, whoever I may be, I know what my purpose is. That will never change no matter who I am.
Well, let's get that call in the Matrix and return to the real world. My results are satisfactory I guess. I really need to improve my Mathematics. That's for certain. I'm quite proud of some of my subjects while I'm happy with the others. In all, I'm satisfied and thankful. Hmmm. Written Report was submitted today. It was unexpectedly rather rushed. I had to rebind the WR as there were some imperfect pages (haiz... perfectionist me...). Luckily I made it back in time. The only thing I forgot to do was to put the removed imperfect pages into my bag. I think it should be still at the photocopy shop. Well, as long as my WR had all the right pages in it and everything was settled, I'm ok with that loss. Hmmmm. What lies ahead? The class CIP. Revision. Hopefully I can bowl at least once to see my current condition. Hopefully I haven't reduced too much. For some reason, I can even convince myself that I had actually improved by not bowling. Haha. We'll see how I perform on the lanes then. Maybe I could work on "That Thing You Do". My pitching seems off at those high parts. I also need to refresh Yesterday. Born Free and Russia with Love should be ok since it does not demand much on the vocals. Haha. Practice practice practice.
Oh! I just realised what I wanted to blog in the first place. It slipped my mind I guess. Hmmm. Is it really worth it to be a nice person. Well, nice people do nice things to help others. Usually they do not want rewards for their actions, which is what makes them nice. Even if the receiver is still harsh towards the nice person, the nice person will still be alright. Hence, I really admire nice people. Maybe sometimes, nice people regret being the way they are, but I guess it will go away after you get that fuzzy feeling. Haha. Tried to be a nice person but I doubt I can be one. There's just something missing. Something. I don't know what but I know it's something.
Ok. End of post. Bye. Ciaoz. Finite.
