miniature disasters and minor catastrophoes

This weekend I have an English assignment to do, a hundred pages of materials to read (for research), and a teammate that doesn’t know the difference between adsorption and absorption (fyi, we’re working with the former). You’d probably can imagine a frustrated and gloomy me.

But I’m neither frustrated nor gloomy. As low as life has been in some ways, I’ve also had lots of positive things in my life. Debate, good teachers (generally), gooddecent grades, and other positive things in my life have been encouraging. The good things and bad things in a life arise from differences, differences between the current state of things and what they used to be. And right now, I’m learning to treasure those differences. 

It’s a tough life, a fast life and still, it’s a good life.

Addressed to Yunhui: Whatever I wrote here, I didn’t write because I had no courage (which you accused me of lacking) to say it to your face. In fact, it takes far more courage to put it up here where one actually has to be accountable and responsible for what he writes. Anyway, I’ve already come up to you and told you what I have to, so that’s that.
