Cheer Up

The night you called, I'd been listening to the sound of rain all day long. It seemed that the typhoon had brought Taipei into winter time with those annoying rain.

I saw you staying at the closed store, half wet, and looking a little miserable. You said that you had a bad day. "Bad Hair Day, uh?" I asked. It means that you feel bad as soon as you wake up. Well, kind of your situation?

But you said it's more that that.

I know how it feels when someone talks behind you. It feels awful; I know.

'Well, it's been just two weeks, and someone bitched about you? Don't you think it's a little too fast? Seems that you failed in meeting new friends.' Glad I didn't say that; bad timing, and you just looked not in the mood for jokes.

It's only two weeks and someone bitched about you. It sucks. Of course.

For me, I think sometimes people may just don't like people, and it happens all the time, in any other way, what so ever. You can't contral it; in stead, you have to accept it.

I know exact how it feels not fitting in those people, especially I just finished lunch with them. And I understand that I'm just that kind of person, the kind cannot find the right words to say, the kind of outsider, the kind people may easily forget. But yeah, whatever. 沛鈞 said that I was quiet today, and maybe that's actually who I am. And I'm glad that, at least, I'm harmless. I think.

Anyway, uh, as my teachers said, shit happens. And it's life. Life sucks, and always does, but you can't be upset for so long, because life's too short to be sad.
