life

sometimes, people ask jie jie "how does it feel to be you?" and proceeded to give her the wistful look.

she would then give them this -_-" look (in singapore terms, the "sian diaoz" look).

grass is always greener on the other side, but on further close speculation, maybe the grass is not that green afterall. Lessons in life have taught jie jie to be optimistic, but never overly-optimistic. Optimism works as a double-edged sword. If you are too overly-optimistic, more often than not, you will tend to feel a greater sense of depression if things don't turn out the way you want it to be. If you are too pessimistic, it will be like lugging a heavy burden on yourself and we all know that worrying gets one nowhere.
