I want to be a somebody
When I grow up, I want to be successful, someone powerful.
I've always thought that everyone wants that too, but just recently found myself wrong. And it puzzles me, even now.
You see, a few weeks back, I was joking around with Soo Qi and I suddenly asked her "Aren't you power hungry?" And she replied, with quite a straight face, (well, she was laughing actually) "No."
I gasped. Then screamed "You're not power hungry!?!? Wan Yie, did you hear that? Soo Qi's not power hungry!"
Then, Wan Yie gasped. "She isn't?!"
Soo Qi looked confused. "Why?" she asked.
Then, there I go again, overacting...(Hehe.. you know me.)
"Don't you want to be powerful when you grow up? Don't you want to be important?!"
Wan Yie was asking her that too. Obviously, we're both pretty ambitious. XD
"No..." she sounded pretty confused.
"I just want to be normal."
OH GOSH! I almost died hearing that. *GASP!* NORMAL!!!
"WHAT?!?! You want to be NORMAL!?!? How can you WANT to be NORMAL!?!?"
So yesterday, I was having lunch with Soo Qi, Lilian and Felix and the topic came up again somehow. Haha... Once again, I screamed in disbelief when she said she wanted to be NORMAL. I DON"T WANT TO BE NORMAL! I want to be MORE than normal! I want to be successful! I want to be important! I want to be someone people look up to! Someone people wish they were... Haha..
Then Soo Qi said she wanted to be a nobody. Again, I almost died. A NOBODY?!?!
Now, who would WANT to be a NOBODY?
As I've said, I've always thought everyone would want to be a somebody. Aim high, you know? Never would I have guessed that people like Soo Qi existed, not if I didn't know her. Wow.
To be a NODOBY. To be NORMAL. Why? Why would one want that?
Sometimes I wonder why I exist. And I've asked Xuxu before. She said
And it made sense. So, it made sense that I wanted to be a somebody.
But now, it doesn't make sense anymore. Someone wants to be a nobody. Why? Don't you want to prove your existence?
Maybe I'm just insecure? Haha...
Maybe I'm afraid, if I was a nobody, not many would know me?
Then maybe, just maybe it'd feel like I didn't exist.
Anyway, during lunch, I also asked them,
"When you look at others, have you ever wished you were them? Why?"
Lilian said 'coz they're tall(haha.. silly girl).
Soo Qi said she envied their freedom. And so did Felix. So, they crave freedom.
As for me, I have a feeling I crave for friends. I want more friends than I can handle. I want to know everyone in the world! Haha...I crave attention. Maybe that's why I want to be a somebody? to exist?
Ah well, let's stop pondering about all those for now. Haha...
So anyway, college's be great. Time passes ever so fast! It feels as though one minute you're stepping into college and the next, you're home! GOSH!
It's also funny how 5 out of 9 girls in my class are short. Haha! Including me of course. They're either shorter or MY height! *gasp!!* And the other 4 girls aren't that tall either! Haha...
It's interesting meeting people with the same interest. People who love math. People who love physics!(Soo Qi and Wan Yie; not sure about the rest) Or plain making new friends, is fun! I don't see much of anyone nowadays though. I usually eat with my classmates. Hmm...'cept for Thursdays. That's the Shrek, Yi Ning, Darell and I day. ^^
As for my lecturers, I quite like them! Especially Ms. Tang, my further math 2 teacher. She's ever so cute! Which reminds me, the happiest moment this week for me was when we got back our fm2 test results! I got 45 over 45! SWEEET~~!!
Haha.. Soo Qi could've gotten it too if she wasn't so careless! Tsk tsk Soo Qi!
Wow. that's one long post.
Haha... I wonder, do you want to be a somebody too? Or do you want to be normal?
Oh yea, and what do YOU crave for? I'm curious.

OH GOSH! I almost died hearing that. *GASP!* NORMAL!!!
"WHAT?!?! You want to be NORMAL!?!? How can you WANT to be NORMAL!?!?"
She's weird.

We exist to prove our existence. That's why we strive to be the best.
(Well, at least I THINK she said that... Haha...)

I WANT TO BE A SOMEBODY! I'M HERE! RIGHT HERE! I EXIST! SEE?

I'm split right down the middle. In one way I want to change the world!! Like invent the next generation of transport or something like that. (Impossible, but a guy can dream non?) But deep down, I want to be incognito... I exist to observe. Watch my own life's movie. The greatest movie ever is one's own life. (Dang... I watch too much movies...)
I crave not for quantity, I crave for quality.
