Hey there. Am blogging after being out for half a day. Attended a funeral. The deceased battled with cancer for a good 14 years before succumbing to it. Pretty sad right? I am sure that it was an uphill battle fought fearlessly, courageously, but only to be defeated. Am not in the position to comment on whether it's worthwhile to fight a disease that is deemed as incurable by clinicians. Yes, it is treatable. But it is not curable, meaning that there will always be a chance that it will relapse after a period of remission.
Life is short, and make the best of what you have. Forrest Gump said that life is like a box of chocolates. I'd say, life is like a shooting star. Yes it is beautiful. But the beauty is rather short-lived. Like a shooting star, each one of us spends merely a few decades on earth, and then it is time to say adios. And you fade. There is this Chinese saying which goes, " sheng1 qian1 wo3 shi4 shui2, si3 hou4 shui2 shi4 wo3". To translate it loosely, it literally means " who am i, before birth. who is me, after my death".
Well enough of these morbid stuff. I am starting to study my Spanish, cos I suck at it. I really prefer Japanese to Spanish. I just find that it is very difficult to master Spanish grammar. It all seems to alien to me. But then, it's 2 weeks more to D-Day. I'd study for it now, and hopefully, I can do well and qualify for the double degree program. WHether I choose to take it or not is a separate matter. If I dont even qualify for it, there is nothing else to talk about, am I not right?
Anywya, going to watch tian1 zi3 xun2 long2. Ta ta
