& I'm waiting
Self-Contradiction
After one day of being hardworking, I gave in entirely today.
Reached home around 3.30pm and I haven't done any work since then.
All the talk and self-conviction that I will work hard for As has seem to become just a lie to myself.
Received my PW certificate and felt the 'ouch' when I got reminded of the damn grade again.
As much as I tell myself it's no big deal, 它似乎会是我人生的污点。因为那是我唯一努力过,却没结果的东西。要怪的话,只能怪我当时没有更努力。它颠覆了我相信的一件事:“没有办不到的,只要努力”。但也许我需要认清的是:“努力不一定会成功,但不努力一定不会成功”。
Every time people seem to come to me for ranting and consolation, and I have become so accustomed to it that I seem to be able to come up with something to try and set their thinking right again.
And sometimes during this process, I mock at myself for trying to console people when I'm not in the right mood to begin with. No matter what, to me, I have no reason to make people feel worse just because I'm feeling so. And often enough, my bad mood has no clear reason behind it.
After realising how much 大道理 I can come up with, I start to think to myself, do I actually believe in them as so? Saying is easy, but taking action is otherwise. I don't seem to fully believe in what I say.
It's like when I do personality tests, I start to wonder if that is my personality or is it someone I perceive myself as/I hope to be?
In the end, it may just be a result of thinking too much.
But sad to say, the only time I can shut my thoughts out is when I'm sleeping. (excluding the times when I realise I'm actually thinking in semi-conscious state/in my dreams)
