Choices.

Do I live to smile or I smile to live?

Hmm, today is the day when I have this weird urge to type a long post about my life since I got out of poly.

Counting the years, it has been nearly 2 years since I graduated from there. To be honest, whatever I am doing at the moment is not the 'right' path. Nonetheless, it is also another way of working up.

Haha, this also means...

Japan House, that was nearly 2 years ago.

Food from a country, that was nearly 2 years ago too.

Our telecom, that was ard 1 year or so.

(PS: Those who know me would know the answers to these word riddles, haha. because I cannot mention their names)

Those times were the times where I felt that I did not learn anything meaningful or enriching for myself. Everyday is so mundane.

However, I cannot totally discount the value of working in these places. To place it crudely, these jobs taught me the ugly side of human nature, where I lie, speak malicious words, learn about the cruelty of the working world. It is not all that bad, it feels like a bucket of very badly mixed popcorn, tasting the sweet ones with small amount of salted ones in between. (I like salted popcorn, you see)

Just that the salted ones are not enough for me.
I know I wanted more.
I know I NEEDED more.

Right here, I feel that there is more meaning.
More tiring, but I feel that it is more worth it.

The serious stuff aside, it is soon reaching one year since I feel into the pit...

the KPOP pit.

It has been fun because I felt more involved in the fandom, as in they are not so out of reach. I can see them, I can hear them for myself.

Yeah sure, they are not as 'talented' as the hobo rock star who writes his own songs, but you cannot deny that they have an appeal. I mean, if they can have that amount of fans, they got to have something that makes people desire for more, right? Or would you say that everyone else in the world is blind?

A more important point is that, there is no rule that you cannot like other genre of music if you like kpop. Falling into the pit does nt mean that I am not in the other right?

Haha, of course me liking kpop is like the largest joke ever. Back then, I learnt Japanese so I could read manga and read all the visual kei interviews without translations. Now... What am I? HAHAHA. Here I would like to thank God for the advances Kpop artistes try to enter the Japanese market.

If you ask why, is because they will place subtitles in Japanese or even attempt to speak the language.
Hey, at least that is a common point of understanding.

Well, I have just turned 22 during 10 Feb.
Oh god am I OLD!
I wonder how long will I take to finish this seemingly never ending path.

Until then.
