Ok, good news people!! i'm not blogging because i am feeling down, emo or sad by life events.
Wahaha, surprising huh? especially to perry, who highlighted to me that my blog sounds all so emo and sad. well, my blog is kinda like me with only my negative feelings written down. Or to say that i dun wanna or dun have the motivation to blog about the happy things about my life. It's like telling people what i want and this form of self-disclosure is kind of threatening. Just thinking people know you well enough to predict your behaviour and how you think is a scary thought, and this form of power, is better left to people who i interact with face to face and in the first and second circles of my social circles (i think i have 5 circles) and not to people who i have never seen before and may use this power to control me. [Definition class-- Power: the ability to exert control over someone to do what he wishes]
But then today, i think i am going to make an exception, thanks to Suh Seung Won and her wonderful mom. Today, technically yesterday, i got a bag of kimchi (for those who don't know what it is, fermented Chinese cabbage, Korean style) from Seung Won!! she brought it to class for me!! it stinks a little but then we ensured that we wrapped it well enough to not bring other Kimchi fans to a state of exhilaration, like i did when i saw her with the Kimchi and smelt it. wahahahah. i had to wrap it up for another reason and that is to keep the kimchi chill until i got home at 1900hrs. when i reached home and tasted it, i was feeling happy in a way that i have not felt for perhaps 1 year, i suppose.
THE POWER OF KIMCHI!!
the taste was superb; the blandness of the Chinese cabbage is being infused with the spiciness and tint of sourness of the Korean seasoning is very well balanced. just the scent/stench of the kimchi was enough to cause arousal and upon tasting, all my taste buds were close to over-reacting. if they could talk, i think i would have been told hurry cook some rice to eat with kimchi. haha, luckily there was still some self control governing my mental processes.
actually kimchi has another meaning to me as well, perhaps that's what accounts for the one year absence of exhilaration in me. but then, i guess, only i know it well and partially regret it well.. but then history can't be altered.
i was telling Yi Fen, that for my birthday, i don't mind receiving Kimchi, at least dun expect me to carry it around (that contradicts with what i told Valentia about my bag being heavy with kimchi but i dun mind because it is kimchi. lol.) haha, people, you know what to do!! i' joking, seriously.
That's the happy part of me. after reading so much, there might be one idea popping in your mind right now-- "wa seh, YJ/ONg LAi is so easy satisfied with Kimchi. superficial guy".I'm not blaming you for coming to that conclusion about me. however, that's why i dun like to blog about the happy stuff about my life, cause people judge easily and jump to conclusions. I don't ask for much (it's a matter of perspective) and sometimes, i'm amused by how little things can make me feel in different ways. like kimchi with exhilaration and drums with serious thinking.
"oh well, isn't is the same for the emo stuff you posted in your blog before?"
hell yea, it is.
the happenings in my life is only partially posted on my blog, and it may not be totally true, what i post and what i experience. It may be the high intensity part of my life that is recorded here, but life's does consist more than just the intensified parts, there's the not-so- and not- intensified part of life to moderate these emotional away.
All i'm trying to express here is to not only depend on my blog to read me, although it maybe a good guide to follow along.
i'm losing coherence here with all these free writing.
