Okay first of all this post is titled Mayonaise, just like the Smashing Pumpkins song, with only a single 'n'. And the reason? Because some particular lyrics from that song quite fit my feelings right now.. yeah, those in italic.
Fool enough to almost be it
Cool enough to not quite see it
Doomed
Pick your pockets full of sorrow
And run away with me tomorrow
June
We'll try and ease the pain
But somehow we'll feel the same
Well, no one knows
Where our secrets go
I send a heart to all my dearies
When your life is so, so dreary
Dream
I'm rumored to the straight and narrow
While the harlots of my perils
Scream
And I fail
But when I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I will
Mother weep the years I'm missing
All our time can't be given
Back
Shut my mouth and strike the demons
That cursed you and your reasons
Out of hand and out of season
Out of love and out of feeling
So bad
When I can, I wil
lWords defy the plan
When I can, I will
Fool enough to almost be it
And cool enough to not quite see it
And old enough to always feel this
Always old, I'll always feel this
No more promise no more sorrow
No longer will I follow
Can anybody hear me
I just want to be me
When I can, I will
Try to understand
That when I can, I willAnyway, don't assume this is school related, because it is not. Just a little bit update, uni life is so far so good. Up to today, almost everyday is enjoyable and in addition to that, I feel I have learnt and gained a lot. Time management, which I had never considered before, is very essential here. Also, participating in CCAs and becoming sub-committee of organizations teach me how to discuss and tackle technical matters. Also as we are quite busy here, I find some changes in myself. First, I no longer want to waste my time. Meaning is, it's not that I avoid leisure and devote myself entirely in studying and catching up with the lectures. It is that I do play, eat, meet up with friends, do assignment, get involved in events, do voluntary work, etc etc. Only this time, I realize that I don't have all the time in the world. So, I make it a point that in everything I do, I will give my one hundred percent. Second, I learn to take opportunities. Honestly, I am a pretty passive person. I am more like the one who go with the flow rather than the one who create waves. Therefore, most of my life I seldom bother to do things that I find unnecessary. But since I am in uni, it sorts of changed. Now I think it is quite good to get involved a bit, as you never know what an opportunity can offer. New experience, of course. And maybe interesting people too haha.
Okay so about the lyrics.. actually I'm just kind of disappointed. Like when you like or admire a person, but not necessarily in romantic way, and you believe that the other person is so good, so role model material, and maybe you build some hope around that person. And then you start to notice that the person is not that good after all. It's disappointing, I have to say. A part of me enjoys having someone to look up to, the other part knows damn well that the person may not be good enough. But you already like the person quite a lot. It is that time you gotta choose, you can back up right now or you can try again, rewind all the good things that happened in the good times. Honestly I don't know what to do. I am acting unaffected and as a matter of fact, I am unaffected. It is just that I don't want to lose a 'north star' that I've found.
Anyway at this point, I start to find that the lyrics don't really relate with the situation lol. But still, it is a great song so here is the youtube link
Enjoy and bye!
