When you get older, not only you go to a lot of weddings. I noticed that I start going to more funerals too.  Before 2009,  I’ve never been to any. After 2009, I had been going once every year. This year might be 2….sigh. There are happiness, and there’s life, there’s also departure. A lot of people wonder why we are in this world. If you always live in box, you would always ask this question. Why not live outside of this box ?  If you cannot escape death, why not live life to the fullest and be worry free?

 

I can’t believe I’m not 30 yet and I feel like life is going to just get tougher. C’est la vie!

Tuition

My brother just emailed me and asked me for $30,000 hkd tuition fee. The way he asked just bothers me. He said it's a new school year and tuition is $30k. If you send me a check, write it in my name cause I have a bank account now.

No thanks, no please. And i don't even know what school he goes to and what major. Even tho he expects me to ask, but when you ask you gotta be more courteous. And it sounds like my mom asked him to do it. A lot of people take loans to go to colleges, and he's asking for the full amount. And it seems like if I send him a check directly, I have to give it to him in full. Cuz last year I only gave him $24k hkd.

Sigh...

Today was chaotic. I guess there’s a first for everything, so there’s no point in writing it. The feeling was a little weird, because I had been thinking what I would do when I get a flat tire for weeks now. I felt that the car has been a little bumpy and had meant to check the tire pressure, for 3 weeks I didn’t get a chance. The moment I had been dreading for has come. It was crazy. Now I learn NOT to think about bad things- they will come to you.

 

Was listening to the radio and heard about a Chinese writer from 1910 – during the Qing Dynasty, even before The People’s Republic of China has formed – had written about the modern society of China – things that would have happened 50 to 100 years later. To make it more simple, he wrote what people called a Science Fiction back then, but everything he said about China had come true. People in the 1910 had treated it as a science fiction, but people who read it now realized it’s somewhat similar to a prophecy.

 

I think it would be fun for me to randomly write things down that might happen in the future, say, with 1-3 years, and see if it came true. It doesn’t have to be things that are logical, it could be anything wild, because things unexpected always happen.

 

That would come later….
