Go ahead. Laugh.
I actually wanted to blog this entry yesterday, but was occupied with.. what else? DotA. Well anyway, due to the nature of what I am going to discuss here, I suppose I cannot afford to mention any names here. I suppose that will be the case for most of my entries, so I hope you readers won't get too irritated.
To begin, what happened yesterday was that another fellow member of the human race did something that I felt was rather.. tactless and unnecessary, to say the least. I was being mocked at for one of my idiosyncrasies at a very inappropriate time. Not that I wasn't used to THEIR mocking, but that was definitely neither the right time nor place for such a.. frivolous action. I gave him a piece of my mind on the spot.
I wouldn't exactly consider yesterday's event as an isolated incident, given the fact that I have been tolerating THEM for as long as I can remember. The title of this entry is another one of the things that I, even though seldom, have said before and THEY decided to imitate me saying it. I don't really see how funny that is, but they all seem to enjoy themselves at the "joke", so I decided to humour them by playing along. But now, I won't really mind if they stopped such.. childish behaviour anytime. In fact, that would be very much preferred. However, I am not one who is very.. keen on direct confrontation, so I suppose I will allow things to maintain at such an equilibrium for now.
Sometimes all that is happening around me is making me feel.. like Haruhi Suzumiya. That's the name of the protagonist in the Japanese light novel titled, "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" (romaji: "Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu"). It has an anime adaptation, which I had enjoyed watching. The main plot is about a girl who finds the world boring and is interested in meeting aliens, time travellers and ESPers, so that life becomes more interesting. But because of that, her peers find her weird and hence most of them ostracize her. Except for one guy, the others are an alien, a time traveller and an ESPer who get near her to prevent her from destroying the world (or rather, recreating it) with a supernatural power that she does not realize she possess. I feel that I'm similar to her, not in the aspect of destroying the world (cue laughter), but rather in the fact that I am being labeled as "weird" just because of.. different interests. And like her, I do not intend to change myself just to suit this world.
"The hourglass runs low." I can't remember where that came from, but it speaks of the situation right now. My sister wants to use the computer, so I shall close my entry. Note that I am slowly trying to change the layout of my blog, so please bear with the ugly presentation for now. Till then.
