Alright, so 2024 is almost over and this was not an ordinary year. I know it sounds cliché to say that, but honestly, how else am I suppose to describe it?
Cool picture, isn’t it? Am I the Tom Cruise of Hong Kong yet? Will post it on Instagram story some time later. 如果我可以返到過去,我會改好多嘢。但老實講,why bother? Maybe this is who I really am. Even if I go back in time, very likely the same result would occur because when I think thoroughly, I wasn’t the master of the game. I was simply making my best moves with what I had on the table.
In the coming year, I’m gonna have to reduce taking risks and stabilize my life somewhat. I have to begin recognizing that we only have one life and seriously do what I want to do, whether to take the bar stage like a true rockstar where the crowd fuels my fire or I rebel and ride my motorcycle like a badass biker. Alright, that’s cheesy af, but I don’t wanna find myself looking at old pictures of myself one day and thinking, “This person is gone and I was the one who let him die”. Like it or not, dreams are important. You don’t have to be perfect at executing your dreams, but just passionately working on them.
Here’s a little motivation for you folks. People always seem to forget this, I actually hate this cliché but, you only live once. You won’t experience life again, and you won’t experience this current moment again either. Live actively, not passively. This time, right now? It’s gone. And it won’t EVER come back. And the people you know? Some will die early without a warning while others will live longer. But if they do die, they won’t be coming back to spend the moment with you to be your protector and savior for the one last time. That would be it! Whatever words you tell the person after they’re gone, you’ll be just talking to yourself. So don’t waste your time and energy on those who don’t really matter, the kind of two faced people who won’t even show up on your funeral. Instead, focus on the people who YOU believe make you feel special and set your heart on fire like you’re a star in a film. You feel they’re special because of a reason, right? If you put on a blindfold and choose a random person to date in a room, I can guarantee you that you’ll receive hugs, kisses and I Love Yous. These are something anyone will do, but those who fight for you? That’s rare. The last thing you want is someone to leave the world, but not your heart. Regret is the most painful thing in life. I sincerely hope none of you have to endure such pain.
Damn, that was good! How’s the dramatic GIF? The post is getting emo af, huh?! But there really are shitty people out there whom we shouldn’t care about. I promise you, life is better without them. If I recall correctly, an ex of someone I knew had the audacity to print “after ‘her name’” on bottles and handed it out to his friends upon his college graduation then snapping a picture to show the world on Instagram, trying to prove he was doing better now without her. That is one of the MOST cruel and disgusting things any adult could possibly do to an ex. You know someone has turned evil when they no longer feel shame. I have dated shitty girls but never someone like that. Hell, I don’t even know any guy who’s capable of being this trashy. I considered taking matters into my own hands with that jerk like you know, Sons of Anarchy, lmfao. I still remember that foreigner in college who bullied others and we dealt with him this way, lol. I wonder if I’ll regret writing this blog tomorrow for revealing too much of myself.
Look, I don’t claim to be a hero, never have. At least I’m aware of my character traits and responsible for my actions. I don’t pretend to be someone I’m not capable of being. Every claim and promise I’ve made, I’ve made it happen one way or the other. It may have taken time, maybe sometimes a lot of time, but I always put effort in trying to make it happen. To me, this is far more important than posing as a Mr. Nice Guy who does absolutely nothing other than improving public image on social media. I honestly don’t gives a shit about being the world’s hero or idol. I’ve lived long enough to tell that those who pose as a good guy/girl are rarely ever good people. Anyone who pretends to have never done anything wrong in life is just lying and enjoys excuses as they’re not capable of being accountable of their own awful actions. When I encounter folks like that, I remind myself that I work too damn hard and I’m too successful to waste any of my remaining time on someone with a brain of a chimpanzee.
Damn! That was brutal AF! Don’t get me wrong, everyone should know how to be nice, but you should also know whom you should be nice with. Treating a shitty person great means, you’re doing disservice to those who were the real victims. Don’t waste your energy on shitheads like that guy I talked about. Enough with lessons, I don’t mind people being messy anyway as long as they’re accountable for their actions. I’m a mess too, but there’s a huge difference between having flaws and being a jerk. The latter have no remorse. People with no remorse are just human trash that can never be fixed. Sometimes things don’t work out, but that doesn’t mean you humiliate your ex (unless your ex was abusive). A person with remorse can be reborn and not do evil again, but those without remorse? They won’t even bother with changing themselves and will only see flaws on other people.
Not all part of this post is about my life obviously. And there’s more to life than drama, you know? Try not to focus on crappy people. This is all I’ve learnt this year.
So, here’s my thoughts on my 2024 briefly. Gradually, I feel like I’ve been improving. I started writing my blogs again after three years, became healthier, and began taking better care of myself (both inside and out). I still have to deal with my eating disorder and other such problems, but I’m gradually getting better day by day. Honestly, I gotta tell you the truth, it’s not a bad year at all. Sure, it started off rough and horrible, like very very bad, but I turned it around. I always find a way to fix things because I know I’ve only got myself. I’m not in my best self yet but I think next year I can completely fix every part of my life. Maybe I could also help setup mom’s retirement plan. I wasn’t able to complete some of my important tasks this year due to personal reasons, but I’m sure in the coming year, I’ll have them all completed. At least I’ll be able to say that in the end, I carried myself and pushed through all the tough times on my own and came out with a fresh perspective on life. Alright! Time to become a champion for the one last time, boys!
Anyway, this song was a recommendation from someone I met in a campfire. I was hoping I would find a punk rock fan but umm.. emo folks everywhere, lol. I couldn’t think of any other song fitting this blog but the melody and the title of the song (but maybe not the lyrics) match the post quite well, don’t you agree? Hence I decided why not end the post with it. To be honest, it’s an epic song! Never heard of Kiri T before. She’s new to me. Now go live your dreams, folks!
