Sometimes I think I have too much time to ponder over strange and confusing things. CNY. Everything is quite sunny and cheerful on my father's side of the family. Watched S-POP HURRAY and had quite a good laugh watching li wei-shiong and li shi-shiong dancing in the 70s. There weren't many relatives though, and su gong's house was a little dusty. But all in all, I rather enjoyed myself, crazily laughing over window curtains and the absurdity of the Brothers Grimm (the movie).
Onto my mother's side. All hell breaks loose. What's new? Still remember when I was pushed out, all those years ago. I always wonder, would we even recognise each other in the street? They might most probably avoid me like the plague, and yet I do not see what we have done wrong to deserve it. Now, I'm still avoided like the plague, just by others. Even though it is the new century and people are saying, "To hell with the old traditions and whatnot", I believe there are still many who cannot shake the shadows of superstitions from their clouded minds. Of course, I'm not saying that death is a reason for joy, but this IS cny AFTER ALL. Once a year? Maybe a last? I dont know. But the point is, during a festive season, why brood over past events that might make one queasy and unhappy? If everyone lived in the past, what future is there?
Why doesnt the library open till Saturday? I have again found a lot of time to be weird.
I need Stephanie Meyer.
