reflections that deceive.

I guess I was too tired before to mention that my brother is back from New Zealand for a break until the end of January. Anyway, it's been almost a year since my brother's here, so I guess it's fun. On the downside of things, there are only two weeks left of my holiday, two more weeks of this year, which has gone really good for me. Right now, I'm just counting down the days. They just pass by without any purpose or significance at the moment, and all I can think of is how much trouble I'm probably going to have coping with next year. SPM, debate, ELS, other activities, 13 subjects.

this morning I was reading Quanyie's blog. for those who are too lazy to click on the link, it's basically about how people always hide something underneath their happy or cheerful exterior. how very true. I wouldn't say every seemingly happy person is like that, but a lot of us are. note the word 'us'. a lot of people who meet me in person would think that I'm a crazy, happy-go-lucky sort of guy. But I won't deny that that isn't who I am, because part of me is really that way. You could say I have some sort of split personality issue. Why? I don't know. Probably because when you first get to know people, that sort of personality doesn't need so much understanding and thinking about. It's easy-going. Unless you happen to read the stuff I write, my poetry, or read this journal, you would know that there's another side of who I am, whoever that is. Haha. We could say that we're all unintentional fakers, never really revealing who we are. I guess, in terms of identity, it's not always about whether or not you are sincere in presenting yourself to others, but also in how much effort the people around you have in getting to know who you really are. Disagree if you want, just give me a reason. :)

I really miss the BRATs. Well, just got an email from Ivy - apparently, we can still write in about our personal experiences during the journey, so I guess that's what I'll do. Work on it tonight if possible.
