smells like teen spirit

hello you all,

plenty of angst in the last entry and after an airtime of a week, i've decided to take it down to reduce any possible further collateral damage which might/might not occur. you never know who's reading this blog and despite the censorship, i'm still uncomfortable with the airing of your views on such a public channel.

i would have addressed this issue again in class during tutorial today. but the main takeaway i hope you guys will have is: there will always be some factors which will remain out of your control. the best thing you can do about this is to learn how to cope in a positive way. ie. it doesn't help to rage because that is only counter-productive and it won't change anything.

no matter how difficult it is, if you feel the other person is just being unreasonable, let his/her hurtful words slide off you. if it's a misunderstanding, wait for a better moment to clarify things. if you must feel something, let it be sympathy for the person, instead of anger.

remember, you can choose to be the egg, carrot or coffee bean. what do you want to be?

going off for class so i shall stop nagging (for now).

love,
ms h
