I've procrastinated for a whole month without updating my blog. My apologies.
Life was hectic for the whole month of February. Lots of emotional roller coasters. My academic performance met constant disappointments. Pressure from peers didn't motivate me either; instead, I felt defeated many times because my test scores didn't meet the average.
-------------------------------------------------
Yesterday after church I bumped into this random guy. He told me he's been a devoted christian before he met his first girlfriend. He got engaged at the age of 18, but she left him for another guy. So the dude I met said that he went "a little crazy" afterwards. He started to live a more "worldly" life, and then his parents, being the strict and fanatic orthodox they are, kicked him out of the house. The poor dude started to wonder around, and he decided to leave the city and get as far away as possible. He left for boston two weeks ago, and he arrived in montreal last friday.
I felt so bad for him and wanted to cry when I heard his story. It wasn't like he wanted any help but I wanted to offer my place for him to stay but I felt that it's not a safe thing to do (obviously). But sometimes someone has to break the rule and take some risks. I wonder what Ba Ma would tell me to do..I wonder what I would tell my children if they're in the same situation. Hmmm.
Ps: midterm went okay today. A huge essay due tmr but I'm done with it. Time to catch up with family, deal with club stuffs, upload a few songs and pursue my dreams:)

That's the kind of thing that would make anyone crazy.
ReplyDeleteI did some unsafe things in terms of hosting people back in my day. Once I had a homeless person stay with me for a few days. I wouldn't do that again, particularly with family around.
