In the past, there was a war between America and Japan. And there have been a lot of movies about it. I've seen Pearl Harbor, which describes the war from the eyes of Americans. I've also seen Letters From Iwo Jima, which tells the story about the war from Japanese' point of view.

Pearl Harbor pictured how the Americans tried hard to win the war and make their country proud, while Letters From Iwo Jima illustrated the Japanese' feelings and fighting spirit.

There's no telling on which side was wrong and which side was right, because after watching both movies, I learnt that the soldiers who fought in the war, be it Americans or Japanese, they all shared one thing in common: someone important was waiting for them to come home safely.

When I was much younger, I was placed in a horrible situation. My life was practically a nightmare. Ever since that, I became traumatized, and I started having various complexes. One of them is pushing people away. Every time someone gets close, I sort of freak out and run away. I make them hate me although I didn't really mean to. Somehow it began to look like a reality TV show where the weak ones are eliminated and only the strong ones remain. I lost a lot of friends because of that.

Thank you Nadiah, you must have been through a lot being with me. 愛してる。

When life gets hard, sometimes we take some time off for ourselves. Like when work stresses us a little too much, we go off for a vacation to relax our mind.

Sometimes it's tiring to be just me. Sometimes I wish I can take some time off from being me and be someone else for a little while. I wish I can know how others solve their problems and view others as well as themselves. And by learning that, I can try doing them while being myself again.

Writing down words is my solace. It allows me to speak out my inner thoughts and calms my mind.

And it shall remain as my solace; a favourite pastime, not as a career.

I don't have many friends. In my small circle of friends, I am only close to just several of them.

When people gather, especially a group of friends, they would talk about other people. When you talk about people, you can avoid bitching about them. And I hate that. I don't like talking about people, and I don't like to listen to them. I hate people ruining my views on others. You may call me naive, but I'm fine with thinking that everyone is nice.

In my opinion, if we treat everyone nicely without discriminating them according to our views on them, they'll treat us just the same. Let me do that, even if you doesn't want to.
