Nothing ever really gets me down, other than when I feel that I am not wanted. One of the saddest moments is when someone isn't happy to see you. Body language tells a whole story on it's own. How pathetic is it that someone you barely know can raise a bigger smile.

I hate life in university sometimes. None of the lecturers, professors, doctors, tutors, teaching assistants really care if you do well. Their job is to come to lesson, dictate the information word by word. If you are smart enough to question what you're learning, what you're doing then good for you. If you aren't, then try your best to tread water and not drown in the ocean. For the next 4 years.

I don't understand how one can improve and learn from mistakes when tests don't even come back, not even results. Are we supposed to just bumble our way around? How am I supposed to know if I'm doing things right or wrong. Throwing people into tests without any practices just doesn't make any sense to me alright. I get we're supposed to be proactive learners but if you're in the business of education, then maybe put in some effort ?!

It's just that education right now seems to be focused on who's intelligent and who isn't, and hardwork doesn't even factor in the equation.
So that's what it's come to.

Met up with a JC friend over lunch on Wednesday. Gosh I miss JC so much :'(

haha i share your sentiments. it's the same here and we never really get to learn from our mistakes

it's quite dumb really, they tell us that 'the world out there's like that' but i still don't see how not giving a shit about us will prepare better for working life

Bulgaria's Abandoned Children.

Just finished watching this documentary. Reduced me to a pile of tears and a bundle of hatred for the soulless 'social workers'. I don't think I will ever understand how humans can be so callous. How could you see a child in pain, in complete need of care, of love and yet treat him/her as cattle, and walk away after manhandling them. It is not the lack of stimulation. It is the lack of love that has left the children in this state of despair. Didi still has so much hope to one day see her mom and love for someone who abandoned and condemned her to a life of misery. She says she's happy but always, the lingering shot shows that sadness in her eyes. She knows, her mom isn't coming back for her. But if one day her mom came, she would jump straight back into her arms. That's the problem with hope isn't it, that's the problem with humans. We want what hurts us. Hope is what kills us in the end.  Milen, the boy that never let his heart harden through all...
Who am I? I lost myself; And I'm finding her again; I read but I stopped. Starting once again. I enjoy photography, but I have fears; I don't fear failing, I fear the eyes of others; but I'm learning that those eyes don't matter This is my digital diary. My days. Of food, photography, travels and what ever else I love. M.

The truth hurts

/start rant  I don't usually tell people what I really feel. It just feels weird. Sometimes I feel like I have to be this perfect being there for everybody. Just devoid of feelings, rational, objective. Give you my opinion, my advice, end of story. But I'm not.  As a  # Taurus  In friendship, you're: loyal - you'll do almost anything for a friend. I'll do just about anything. I'll readily drop anything just to be there. But at some points in life I just get tired of all these. Tired of just listening to everybody complain about every damn thing. And when I just really need to talk to about something I either draw a blank or get things turned into a joke.  & you wonder why I don't ever talk about anything or tell you anything.  Thanks for making me feel shiteous again.  When my student can give me a better listening ear............ end rant/  New 2012 resolution: Stop having itchy fingers that reply to every damn thing....
