Solitude

Dear Qingwei,
Sorry that this came rather late but...
What a terrible person I am isn't it? You have been writing to me for goodness knows how long and yet all I that I have been doing is to chuck your sentimental entries into some desolated, and godforsaken corner in my vast palace of the Internet. But, now that you had reached the next phase of your life, I feel that it is really time for me to speak up and advise you a little on what you should or should not do as you step dangerously close to the grounds of Adulthood.
So, what that I had observed from your intimate confessions to me these past few years is that you are a terribly wishy-washy guy when it comes to admitting that you like a certain girl. Not that you are awfully great at making decisions when you are at work or in the army, but at least you won't deny yourself of your rights and am able to express yourself feelings rather sufficiently and diplomatically. Although not quite there yet but at least some effort was there. However, when it comes to matters that might affect you decision as to whether your career lies in the mundane world or in the delivering of sins in another different world, you are just such a pussy. Come on, be brave. What? Say that again! You think that being friends is enough? Hmm.. to quote one of your friend, Xinru from her blog, "I can only like you this much as a friend" Oh please, Qingwei, when you like someone, it is not enough to be only a friend, cause there is a limit as to how much a friend can do to his/her friend.
Another thing, why are you so terribly shy and reserved? It is not going to help you in anyway. If you think you know this person, but not sure if he/she is the right person you had thought he/she out to be, just go and say hi, are you blah blah? People would not call you a crazy kid or a siao ding dong just because you got the wrong person, or would they? Anyway, just go up and say hi or anything. It would not hurt. Don't give people the chance to say you are the 'dao kia.'
Still not convinced about the major character overhaul that you should undertake to become a better person? Look at the picture above. What does it show? Solitude as what you would name it in Flickr? Hell no, I don't think so, in fact, I think that old man is enjoying his time in the spotlight. Although I must say that this would have been a better photo if the background were dimmer, but, anyway, I think he is feeling more happy than moaning about his loneliness. He knows that once the spotlight is off, he would be off home, to his loved ones where he can spend some moments of family bliss that should be the happiest thing that man can have. So, yeah, I presume you are clever enough to get the rough idea.
Another thing, I find you a strangely bad friend, now you better dig deep and think about what's needed to be done or else, you will be much more lonely than just a man without companionship and offsprings in the future.
Till then..
