U

... I just can't stop thinking bout chu girl ...
Addicted to U by Super Junior.
Very old song.
Awesome nonetheless.
Yummy.

Hehe... yes, latest obsession in terms of music. Even though I'm not too keen on most of the dancing and the singers themselves, the song is quite nice and easy to listen to. I only understand a few of the Korean words and the English 1 liners... but... it is still music to my ears. =)

This issue has been on my mind for a while now, but it has just recently been worrying me more... and it is somewhat relevant to the title of this post, so might as well blurb it out now.

I hate growing up and losing faith in people.

Growing up is awesome- there is so much more room to grow, to explore, to experiment with, to make mistakes in, to accomplish things, to chase dreams...

Growing up is a such a pain- start to realize how much more complex and unpleasant the world can get, how superficial people can be, how materialistic many are, how cynicism accompanies growth a lot of the time, how so many problems are not addressed but swept under the carpet...

Growing up is a part of life- can't stop the aging process, can't help but experience those unpleasant things, not ideal to shunt away from those unpleasant things anyway, expectations come with this inevitable part of life, as does responsibilities...

Growing up. Growing. Grow.

I think the main part that is eating me inside is the way humans are. It is the fundamental trait of greed that gets even the best of us. It can be the hunger for anything- money, power, friendship, popularity, acceptance, appeal... the list goes on. It can be highly superficial, or it can be for genuine reasons.

Despite it all, it bugs me.

I'm sure I possess that trait too. I don't like it, but I'm sure I have it somewhere. I just wish it does not have to be so evident sometimes and that everyone can just interact without it. Everything will be much more pleasant, much less superficial, much more worthwhile spending time to understand.

Guess it is the fact that dentistry is taking away a lot of my time... so with whatever I have left, I would rather have real conversations, genuine understandings, sincere interactions.

Getting to know the real [U].

Hoping for more time during this part of the growing up process. Just a bit more.

Hui Hui ^^b
