Exposed to Social Media

I had posted about supernormal stimuli several weeks ago. And I think that social media is one of them. The joy of living a lifestyle albeit not earning it is. . . great. And in this post, I’m talking about one of the most famous social media on Earth: Instagram.

An Extravagant Lifestyle

Anyone wants to be rich, including me. But I often think that the rich have extravagant lifestyle. Somehow, they pose themselves for their friends to boast their possessions, or just simply to make them jealous.

Panic About Future

I was panicking about my future, particularly about my internship as I told you before. I applied as many internships as possible, hoping that I could at least pass one of the tests held by various organizations hiring.

None The Wiser

My mother always said that I was the smartest among all of my sisters and myself. But the harsh reality is that on several subjects at college, I’m none the wiser.

Lost Control

After reading the title of this post, I suddenly remember the video above. The first time I watched it, I lost control and laughed too much.

He answered so well he could make the questions asked sounded stupid.

And I think, this cements the stereotype that Asians are generally smarter than any other race, in several particular subjects, of course. Hope I’m not offending someone here.

Wish to be Apprenticed

Learning new life skills is necessary, like my brother-in-law once said. And there’s truth in it. He thinks that once a man stop learning, he ceases to be useful.

But looking for someone willing to apprentice me, for example, is another matter. I feel I’m incapable of selling myself when the interviews are being held, and that is proof enough for them, the masters to judge me inferior.

Colorful Yarns

They look beautiful . . .

Imagine these yarns are ideas possessed by several bright people eager to change the world for the greater good. Sew those ideas, and you’ll get beautiful results that will last for a long time.

The Best Perfume

I read the Perfume novel by Patrick Suskind. It tells about a man searching for the best recipe to create a perfume that could spread love.

But that’s not the best perfume for me. It’s the smell of the rain — petrichor — that smells the best. Because it’s natural, and because it’s rare. Not every rain you get to smell a perfume so magical, so earthy. 

Knackered Mind

A knackered mind can only do so little than usually. That’s why I haven’t posted for several days.

My creativity is destroyed; my imagination is limited to just what I have to know so I could pass college. My mind is weary.

Wish I could go back to the past, being kids again. Never have to worry about the future. You don’t have to worry about life, about death, about failure.

Kids, their minds are never knackered. 🙂

Blanketed in Stars

This was one of my motivations to become rich. I would travel the world to find this beautiful jewel. The night blanketed in stars and Aurora seems so beautiful, so . . . otherworldly.
