What Happened to Blogs?
What happened to blogs?
I still remember how hyped up blogs and bloggers were back in my high school days. Everyone was a blogger; people wrote and people read. People blogged about their miserable lives, people blogged about feelings, people blogged about poetry, people blogged about the places they've travelled, people blogged about fashion, people used to blog about everything.
And now, the trend has shifted. Everything is so fast paced now that no one is willing to read anymore. People need to see things moving so they became youtubers instead.
I have nothing against youtubers, I love them. But I'm just wondering what happened to all the bloggers that I once loved? I miss having new stories to read every week written by writers who are loved what they do. I miss having something to write too. I used to write a lot and although I was bad at it (and am still bad) but it definitely felt easier to turn my thoughts into words back then.

Going back.
So I guess I'm a pretty emotional person after all.
Despite having to go through some "rough" patches in life, I'm glad that I still have people that are able to stick around long enough. Thanks for growing with me, guys. Really appreciate it. These 10 days that I've spent back home has been stupidly emotional, haha. I DID NOT expect that. It just oddly reminds me of how I'll always have a place to fall back to and that there will always be people who are crazy enough to catch me. And I'm glad that I know that. We're not perfect - none of my friends or family are, but thank you.

Growing up.
Growing up to me means that:
You'll have your own decisions to make.\
You'll have to move to places where not everyone will be willing to accept you.
You'll have to pay your own bills.
You'll have to manage your own financial issues.
You'll have to find food to feed yourself.
You'll have to deal with real life misogynists.
You'll have to lose friendships that were once important to you.
You'll have to accept that the friendships that you have lost might never be able to come back.
You'll have to learn how to move on.
But growing up also means that:
You'll learn how much home actually means to you.
You'll learn how irrational your parents' love for you is.
You'll learn that what has already happened will stay in the past.
You'll learn that it is okay that heartbreaks happen from time to time.
You'll learn that your problems are actually pretty trivial.
You'll learn that every moment is fleeting.
You'll learn how to appreciate.
You'll also learn how to be more forgiving.

朋友 我當你一秒朋友 朋友 我當你一世朋友
奇怪 過去再不堪回首 懷緬 時時其實還有
朋友 你試過將我營救 朋友 你試過把我批鬥
無法 再與你交心聯手 畢竟 難得有過最佳損友
從前共你 促膝把酒傾通宵都不夠 我有痛快過你有沒有
很多東西今生只可給你 保守至到永久 別人如何明白透
實實在在踏入過我宇宙 即使相處到 有個裂口
命運決定了 以後再沒法聚頭 但說過去 卻那樣厚
問我有沒有 確實也沒有 一直躲避的藉口 非甚麼大仇
為何舊知己 在最後 變不到老友
不知你是我敵友 已沒法望透 被推著走 跟著生活流
來年陌生的 是昨日最親的某某
生死之交當天不知罕有 到你變節了 至覺未夠
多想一天彼此都不追究 相邀再次喝酒 待葡萄成熟透
但是命運入面每個邂逅 一起走到了 某個路口
是敵與是友 各自也沒有自由 位置變了 各有隊友
問我有沒有 確實也沒有 一直躲避的藉口 非甚麼大仇
為何舊知己 在最後 變不到老友
不知你是我敵友 已沒法望透 被推著走 跟著生活流
來年陌生的 是昨日 最親的某某
早知解散後 各自有 際遇作導遊
奇就奇在接受了 各自有路走
卻沒人像你讓我 眼淚背著流
嚴重似情侶 講分手
有沒有 確實也沒有 一直躲避的藉口 非甚麼大仇
為何舊知己 在最後 變不到老友
不知你又有沒有 掛念這舊友 或者自己 早就想通透
來年陌生的 是昨日 最親的某某
總好於 那日我 沒有 沒有 遇過某某

we are not
you look into the mirror
and you see a face that's not yours
wanting to destroy what you see
with all your might
with full force
but within the million mirrors
that you have shattered with your bare hands
the only images you can see
are the broken reflections
so ugly
so awful
so monstrous
so much blood and gore
and then you wonder
when will it ever stop
don't we all
in some way
want to be
something that we are not
always striving to be better
always wanting to be good
always hoping for the best
when only
we are nothing
and we have nothing
because what we are right now
are just things
that we were once not.
