Knowledge

You cannot unlearn what you've learnt.

In light of to many 'good lucks' I'm getting from my peers and others alike, I've gotta acknowledge that I'm not a firm believer of luck. I've always held a firm belief in the concept of luck, but of late, it has dwindled and become alot more ambivalent that it was. It's the ability to stay awake, the motivation, the fire that I need. Not luck. Luck's useless when 95% of my examinations are graded on Essays.

But a part of me remains superstitious. For instance, I've not touched my favourite FCUK tee for ages, just because something bad happens to me everytime I wear it. Usually, the suffering one is my school work.

Back to the topic.

Well this is once again, another story of a same friend of mine. Someone who's really naive, and totally lost in his world of his own. Or rather, I'm lost in the world of my own, because I bet 90% of the population are like him - Simple-minded, carefree and totally unsophisticated. He hasn't gone through alot, unless you count in the highly regimental lifestyle he leads because of his mum's existence.

This fellow is really hilarious at times because he never understands our jokes. Especially those that utilise American slangs. And it doesn't help that he doesn't take Literature, something that's subjected to constant mockery in the CJC "Family" hur hur. So basically, he's really alone and more or less ostracized. Poor fellow.

But seeing his MSN nicknames compound our impression of him. He's just that simple, nothing really major troubles him. While on the other hand, someone like me ponders upon the world, my purpose in this life, the existence of God, the stupidity of religion, the lack of anthithesis between good and evil. The list goes on.

I'm not sure of anything else, except this: He's living a much happier life than I do.
