What am I

It is rather interesting to know how differently people view you, from how you look at yourself.

I was given a task during a training, to make a clay model to represent myself. I usually don't like such questions, because sometimes I'm really unsure of myself, what exactly I am.

I started asking some of my friends, what could I make with the clay. I got answers like 'a musical note', 'a musical instrument', because I love music and I could play the organ and the erhu. But I thought it was too generic and common, because many of the colleagues in the training session would have similar passions too.

Then I got more interesting answers:
A camera - because I like photography, and I always record the things I see
A doormat - because I'm always welcoming my friends from overseas
A walking dictionary - although I don't think I'm one
Philippines - no prizes for getting it right
A sun - because I'm a sun-loving person
An ox - because I am determined (in another word, stubborn)
A 'nuah' shape - because I like to 'nuah' HAHA
Something to represent my horrible laughter - how am I going to show it with a clay model??

Then I decided on something else - an alien. A weird person, with extreme personalities and unusual habits. HAHA.

And during this 2 day - 1 night training, I realised I couldn't be deprived of even a little bit of me-and-myself-time everyday. I actually felt relieved sitting alone at the cafe, drinking coffee, doing nothing and watching people go by. Go ahead and say I'm anti-social. :)

In the end, the activity was scraped, we didn't need to make any clay models. What a relief. But it was very nice to have a colleague who made something for me. Thanks! :)



So, if you know what could well represent me, share with me! :)

Ah..

Life has been (fill in the blank).

I'm still alive. Ha.

中毒了

最近又开始追起偶像剧来了。

为了追看偶像剧,我不只把一些睡眠时间给牺牲了,连平时收看的菲律宾戏也暂停不看了。很难想象吧,我竟然不看我的“家乡戏”!

所以我说,我中毒了。哈哈。

不切实际的爱情故事,也许是偶像剧的吸引力。当然,也要有帅哥美女的衬托。虽然这样的情节不太可能出现在平常生活里,有时候却会不经意地在幻想,自己是剧中的女主角。

我的感情生活是一份白卷,我可能不懂什么是爱情。也许是这样,有点渴望想经历一次像偶像剧般那不切实际的恋情。当然,我知道感情不是闹着玩的,我也不是18岁的少女(也就是说,我不年轻了),所以只能把渴望当成奢望,当作是自己异想天开吧。自己也清楚,一段稳定的爱情,比谈一场轰轰烈烈的恋爱来得现实一些。

至于我的感情生活什么时候会有转机,就听天由命。我相信时机到了,自然会来。就耐心等待。:)
