Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone, enjoy the holidays, we all deserve a good long break. Happy celebrating what ever you believe! I am wishing you guys the best of the best from the West Coast. 

Hard Candy

A dark thriller that is just amazing. The character felt so real, Ellen Page did a really good job portraying the face of every child who has been molested, killed, touched, screwed and played with a pedophile. I'd rate this move 3.5/5. 

I wish.....

I wish i could tell you that "I love you", but honestly these days, who knows what it actually meant

Curious Incident

You will always be the curious incident in my life

Culture

It's so funny how one culture could adapt, learn and keep their cultures intact in the most ridiculous, obnoxious and insane ways that makes us question whether or not we should stick by that culture. See, i grew up in different cultures, not just through the existence of one solitary confinement of a concrete teaching of our predisposition of our ancestors. You know the thing about cultures? They are a crucial part of our lives, i get that but cultures do have its flaws. By just sticking to one culture, i really do not think that we can learn many things in life, hence the existence of a multi cultural world is a must in our world. I have seen the flaws in my culture that if i will not recognize if i haven't embraced into other cultures. Some things that i cannot even stand that i had to literally disagree with their teaching. It's just so weird that people do cynical things in order to preserve their culture or just because they are scared of exploring other aspects in life that might change their whole belief system, indeed it is a indisputable that we are living that world right now. I just hope things change for the better good. 

Happiness?

Is the state of "happiness" for real? Or is it just a prolongation of pheromones and adrenalines?

I wish for you

I wish in time there would be someone who would stand up for me no matter what. I wish in time for someone to watch with me every winter together. I wish in time there is someone who would see me no matter who or what i really am. I wish for you. 

Nothing is good or bad

I'd like to be a person who takes things not as someone who is optimistic or pessimistic anymore. Now that when you think of it, the world would be a better place when we say that nothing is good or bad. Think of it, we say things that had happened good or bad depending on our perception of life. We think that the war is bad because it cost us lives of innocent people and it is sustainably bad for the economy as it depletes our cost and lowers the demand. A weed is a weed, as simple as that. If we do not like it, then it's simply nothing much than a weed. There are medical legit advantages of cannabis( main ingredient from weed), where it stimulates appetite for cancer patients and reduced weight loss. Pretty much, it really depends in our perception. Life sucks only when we judge it as bad. Shakespeare said that "nothing is bad or good but thinking it makes it so" and i really agree with it. Without our so called "ability to think" we cannot ever conclude that life sucks or not. Only until we filter and processed whether or not life is good or bad, beautiful or ugly. 

Let's take account of disasters. Obviously most of us think that it sucks, bad, tragic...basically anything that you can think of that is a negative thing. But think again, even though generally its a negative thing, but a Holocaust survivor says that "...If we were not an eternal people before, we are an eternal people after the Holocaust, in both its very positive and very negative sense. We have not only survived, we have revived ourselves. In a very real way, we have won. We were victorious. But in a very real way, we have lost". We always have ways to account of something bad and turn it into something positive. Obviously Holocaust is not a good thing, i wouldn't say that it's a good thing but perhaps we can say that it happened. We should see it as a lesson, one that we can learn from. Tragedies occurs everyday, there are losses without a doubt, people die everyday. We cannot prevent or change of what has already happened. It is a loss, it's just a matter of how we take account of it, and deal with it sanely. 

Ok Go - Here it Goes Again

The most original music video ever

Kings Of Convenience - Misread

A soothing music that releases the tension during you are stressed. All indie music lovers should listen to it.

Lying

As hurtful as it may sound, people lie. Well, i'm not saying that we lie all the time but yeah we do lie to others and for many reasons. It may be a "white" lie where we lie in order to comfort others or avoid confrontation. It may be a lie where we deceit others in order to show an illusion of the person we want them to think of us, but in reality we are not. We just have to accept that it is in our human nature to lie. The fact that we have a brain shows us that we can think, not only the good things but also the bad things that dehumanizes our character. 

Does your life sucks? Think again

I've always heard people complaining about their lives, like their life is not good enough or that their life seems superficially boring. Well, i think your life is pretty decent when you are given a proper education, shelter and food. Unless if like, you are currently physically, sexually and mentally abuse by your family then i would be wrong. Look at the world in a larger perspective, there are children who wish they have what you  had. So please, don't say your life sucks just cause of the things( You don't get enough allowance, you are restricted to do go out late at night, you cannot get certain expensive items) cause trust me there are more people out there who have much more concerns...say getting food so that they can live another day? 

Books

Appreciate books people. Its teaches not only knowledge but the perspective of the world from our ancestors. Its a valuable lesson. 

Polaroid

I love polaroids. Seriously, like i will never get if anyone hates polaroids. I mean, why would you hate something so unique, vintage and a part of history? Unless you've lived in a cave un-ruled by society for 2 millennia, maybe you can say that but if you're not....seriously i think you're insane. 

Undesirable

Is it too late to want the undesirable?

Top 5 things i want to do by i'm 30

Being raised in a strong traditional Chinese values does have its perks, but there are times when i prefer to follow American values. In my understanding of being successful in life, one is measured by the amount of income and reputation with their community. But who ever said that being successful and happy is defined in that way. Happiness should be where we do not feel any obligations and burden except for our self. I just want to live where i feel no obligations towards others, just living for my self and be happy. Therefore, by the age of 30 I would like to do:

1. Go to a foreign country(That does not have English as their first language) and live there for a year. 

2. Spend my income on food, traveling, leisure and just have FUN.

3. NOT marry, i still do not want to settle down just yet. 

4. Own my own private practice as either a psychologist/psychiatrist. 

5. Speak a fourth language. Possibly Chinese or French. 

Story of my life 1

I wish life can be so much easier for everyone. But hey, if life could be easier then the existence of great philosophers would be meaningless. The question that mankind always seek that is the existence of life, will I be happy in life? Will I succeed in life? I would like to have someone that knows the real me you know? Like someone not romantically who can tell me what i want, what i am good at, my weaknesses and what i like. Someone who could tell me that i could do it, that my life will be set in the future so i do not have to freak out about an undecided future. I know, you might think i am wrong. I mean i know that the future cannot be predicted, what we decide, our every single actions will make a change in our future. That is why it is always undecided. I have seen my friends who are going their separate ways now, they are certainly changing in ways that i am grateful for them. But should i feel...jealous? I do not think that being jealous isn't the the right word but it's like we only have one life(unless you believe in reincarnation) and i really want to make the best out of it. Is it wrong then to feel jealous? 

You were fake, i was great, nothing personal

"You were fake, i was great, nothing personal"

All time low- Break Your Little Heart

Christmas holidays?

How is your christmas holidays everyone? I want to celebrate this seasonal holiday because i never really celebrate it the way others have celebrate it, any suggestions?

Truth?

Truth is a justified true belief. 

IT GETS BETTER

High school is just a part of your life, its only 3 years and there is so much more to see after that. Just don't give up so easily, i've been there, i know how it feels, feeling like there is not any tomorrow and you're life is like a living hell but trust IT GETS BETTER. We just have to be strong about who and what we are and not let others affect you just because you are different, unique and special. Those people can just go fuck them selves. 

Future

The future is not set, the future we hold is through our hands and what we can do to change is not controlled by fate, but our choice itself can hold a new future.

Check out this link. This talks about the errors in humans mind and i find it to be true. So interesting to read and understand what our minds think and react. 

"I"

I don't want to become what others expect of me. Its not that i am prejudice, racist or sexist, I just want to be defined as "I" not as anything else based solely from my background
