Then it needs Superheroes
But if I don't know any of the Superheroes
What do I do?
I think the next logical thing is to protect myself
Set up a defensive barrier
Repel all the negativity away
If in the event of helping others
I sacrifice blood, sweat and tears
I guess that is still ok
But if in the event of helping others
I exchange precious time which can never be gain back
What do I do?
All the money in the world can never buy me back the time I lost
And if time is lost in doing something that is not meaningful
Then the feeling is like "WTF?!"
Media often stereotype "time equates to money"
So in my case
I got a dead harddisk lying on my table top now
I spend time searching online and asking ppl how to fix it
And after dismantling it and realising that it is certified dead
I spend time AND money going to buy another new harddisk
Which leads to the "WTF!?" feeling again
I think it is very stupid to do all these redundant things
Not saying that I don't take care of my own things or what shit
But like right now, it's just this "WTF?!" feeling
Like losing precious data, installation programs, pictures, music
Video, school work and whatever etc
Some of them I never back up in my laptop somemore
So ya now they are gone with the wind
Block leave ah block leave
Doesnt it means to be having personal time to rest and relax?
Or does it really means going back to civilian life
Going back to being "Mr Do-It-All" in my life
Fix this fix that
Somehow
I feel shameful everytime I ask ppl for help
Makes me feel like a leacher
Which leads to be trying to be "Mr Do-It-All"
And leading back to asking for help when I need it
And this whole bloody vicious cycle repeats itself
Over and over again
I think some ppl are also just sick of me
And they know when I'm on block leave and look them up
Somehow it doesnt spell good news for them
And I think is just basic courtesy for me to treat them well
Which leads to my shorts, berms, jeans all burning holes everywhere
And of course those who like to take advantage of me
Help to set me on fire too
Thanks~
Brings me back to the money issue
And how selfish everyone of us is turning out to be
Leaching each other and sucking each other dry
Just like tuition
Izzit supposed to be good or bad?
Or just a form of money-making outlet for young unqualified ppl?
Whereby they sit there
Stuff innocent kids who in their own terms
Haven learn the gist of studying yet
With pure monotonous answering of simplistic questions
Without the heart and soul of doing something meaningful
Are we
As ppl who are giving tuition in their free time
Doing the "right thing" or not?
Or is there even something call "doing the right thing?"
Cant say anything about others
But hearing stories like what crazy $50 per hr rate
For ya, 3 or 4 or even 5As students in their JC A' Levels
So does GPA of 3.9 equates to what they are charging?
Or the fact that qualifying for the Chem Eng in NUS justify that?
Does it?
No it doesnt honestly
And somehow we do need to set ourselves apart
From doing something with heart and soul
And to just joining in the feeding frenzy which is call "home tuition"
Quote of the day:
(While on the way to pay my respect for late grandmother...
Somehow I'm the only person of my age in the
whole entire family tree
Considering the fact that I'm serving the Nation
And others are just plainly sleeping in during the cosy rainy
weekend morning and talking about filial piety in their dreams)
姨丈 to 勇俊
“在这人生
做任何事情
最重要的是要自己要开心
但是
记住永远不能去害别人”
F it man
We are just slaves to technology
And money makes the world go round
La La La~
