Assumptions the community make

It's sad how the citizens of the world tend to make assumptions and generalizations. Some of it are not made, inherited or developed, but fed by the media.

Take this as an example : everyone thinks that in a love relationship, the guy is the one always providing his shoulder for the girl to cry on.

Agree? I'm sure you all do. Watch too many movies? Maybe. I don't see what's wrong with a girl providing her shoulders for her guy to cry on.

Heck, I don't even see the problem for the guy to provide his shoulder for  his best friend to cry on. It's not gay or anything, it's all love.

Be more open minded.

Cause of my insomnia

Yesterday was with a terrible insomnia. Slept at 4, woke up at 7 and force myself to sleep, then woke up at 10.30am. So yeah, it's a very tiring day.

Already with lack of sleep, my mood and temper isn't good. Then my pants got torn by a plate number (yes, plate number). Went to the study place, can't get any sleep at all.

Reason why? I find it too quiet. Unreasonable? Try to think of it as... your most active condition. While trying to get some sleep at the studying place, I tried to figure out why I couldn't sleep and why they insomnia.

The link is possibly due to introversion and nocturnal. Largely due to introversion, I find quietness (not too quiet though) to be magnificent, and the night makes me think more and have more idea flowing through as compared to any other time.

Should I really go consult a doctor? No. My insomnia is due to the things I can't stop thinking about for years, and is something that I'm trying to fix now. Details in the few recent posts. Thanks for your concern anyhow. I do think about it all the time, but sometimes it does keep me awake.

Yesterday I got the idea. Instead of over thinking until my brain goes tired and sleep, why not try letting everything out?

Insomnia (September 18th, 3.52am)

I'm a guy. Not so typical guy, thanks to my leg. I consider myself as an early-matured guy and because of this, I didn't blend in with my fellow classmates. Somehow I never met anyone with a similar case as mine, until last year.

Back in the days, I am the last one anyone would ever talk to. I became a person for others to express their emotions, like a psychologist. I gave everyone advice, hoping that they can get out of their problems.

Later, I became "the motivator" and I am still the final person to talk to. Being that, I became more and more lonely obviously, and became a full lone ranger. I started being an extreme introvert, handling myself and everything within my reach alone.

That's when this blog started to fill in with emotional stuff. The other day I logged in to my Evernote and I saw the things I got emotional about since 2010, yet I am still being emotional about it after all I've been through the 2 years. Let's refer it as issue X. It's a personal thing, but you can find out what it is in a few posts before this one.

Well guess what? I can't even get my mind straight about issue X. My past is a complete void other than helping people, yet this is at about Form 4 and Form 5. Any time before that is... Pretty much an empty void, and my childhood is completely empty no doubt.

The scars on my arm and leg reminds me that I did have a past, but an empty one. Scars since I was little. Surgery marks since I was 2. Injuries since I was 8.

The thing is, I know in my life I lived as a lone ranger for so long, I know how to subtly satisfy or at least try to satisfy everyone involved by myself. But the worst problem comes when you're no longer living alone.

While living alone, you don't have to bother about socializing, maintaining this and that. I'm exactly in this position. From a lone ranger to what I can call myself a socialite. I feel insecure. I don't know what friends are. I don't have anyone to tell everyone single pain.

When they all go back go their hometowns, everyone will find their secondary school friends. I should too but I have only two remaining, where one is at Australia. I don't have a close friend or a best friend, or at least I don't know how to read the signs. Again, I'm insecure, so tell me straight on if you are my close or best friend.

I always preached last time, "believe, and it will happen". I wonder what happened, I didn't practice it since ever. But recently another friend of mine reminded me about this.

If I practice this again, then I can make believe that I have one best friend, a few close friends and a handful of friends.

I rarely preached the theory of "circle of friends" since I think it is true but very offensive and ridiculous when I share it out, though I found numerous applications to this theory.

I used to say, "know yourself and everyone who likes you for who you are will be by your side forever, not for what you are". Now, the one who said it can't even decide if he's an ambidextrous or mixed-handed. What a hypocrite.

Transition from a lone ranger to a socialite is very bad for your mind. Truely stressful. Even with more pressure when you're an introvert.  Makes you feel alone whenever everyone is gone, but feeling afraid when people wants to meet you.

That's all for this time. Can't sleep with this fancy biological clock of mine and my brain can't stop thinking, so I just wrote.

Ohana

Ohana means family, family means nobody gets left behind. For me, friends = family.
