As you know today is Wesak Day, is a public holiday. So today university is close. That’s means I have whole day to wondering what to do.
Well, I dint really do that whole day. I went for “breakfast” at 10 in the morning with my friends. Why 10 o’clock only went for “breakfast”? Good question. Because that’s one of the benefit of public holiday. ><
After we done with “breakfast” we find our way to few places. We planed to go to Public Bank and take photo. But we find and find and find, we dint get any thing done… >< Because the photo shop dint open and the Public Bank at old town which will take about 15 minutes for us to walk there. Hey! Is 11 o’clock with bright sun above leh! Want me walk there? No WAY!
Then we went to ice house to eat ice~ Wow! It feel so great to eat ice at such a hot day~!
As we eat, we talk about our primary and secondary school’s stories. Both of my friends have a very… hmm… What to say… Challenging! They have a very challenging school life compare with me. Such as this, she(my friend) told us that when she in secondary(or primary? Gosh… I forgot already ><) school, she kena one senior bully just because my friend defeat her in one of the competetion. One day, when she sitting at somewhere with her friends, chatting, then one senior with other 3 people came to her and suddenly said:”Hey, you! Why you said me bodoh?” My freind was like… “What do I did? I just chatting with my friends. Since when I said you bodoh?” Then they start to fight(not using hands, as I know). In the end, all of them end up in counselling room. Under counsellor advice, they apologize to each other and they become quite close friends in coming few years.
My another friend have more challenging(I like using this word to describe her story) story. She told us that when she in primary school, she is the one who been bully, but in secondary school, she bully people pulak~! Her bully case in primary school is worse than the story above. Standard one, my friend try to make friend with one girl(I will use “the girl” from here). The girl said:”Want to be my friend? Can, but you have to give me at least RM100 per week(or month). If not, I don’t want be your friend and call whole class don’t friend with you.” Well, she just 6 years old after all, and she scare. Then my friend did what ever the girl said. That girl use many many of my friend’s money that time. Later, my friend, she keep a beautiful long hair. Then the girl called her to cut it! But my friend refuse to do that. Then here start the nightmare. The girl and her other friends sometimes pulls her hair la, stick paper which wrote something bad on her back la and etc. Yea, I know, it just like movie… Well, finally my friend can’t stand it anymore and complain to her mum. So her mum came to school and settle down this case. But after few days, the girl start the bully-things again. Then my friend really cut her hair… After this, the girl turn to bully other girl(which is my friend also). But now, when my friend meet the girl, she not afraid of her anymore, because my friend is taller and prettier than her! Way to go girl!
Then this morning, before I went out for breakfast, I chat with one friend(not the girls I mention above, this one is he). He told me his story. He told me that after STPM, many things happened around him. He break up with his girlfriend(2 years relationship). When that happened to him, he was stunned, sitting at his room like a stone(I never know that he was so royal, maybe is because I used to hears about his story, bad story, in secondary school… ><) Then one day, his brother came in and scold my friend until he cry. That time, he was awaken. All this time, his family was so support him and he very very thankful and he changed(believe me, he changed a lot!)
After I heard all this stories, I feel like… My life is so… Blank. If said that their life is sea which sometimes have small waves or maybe tsunami, my life will be lake… A quiet lake, no waves or tsunami. But I appreciate that. I wish that it won’t make me a very weak girl that can’t face any big problem that come to me. Well, my life won’t end like this right? I mean there must be someone will throw a stone into the lake, right? If there really a person, I don’t mind if you throw a big stone in my lake. Because I want take the challenge. I want learn to be strong, not pretending, like now.
