First of all. It's already rainy season now. It's cold day and night. More reason to stay in blanket all day.
It's a slow week at campus. Nothing special's going on. Except maybe my project reaching its end, finally which means I have to put extra hours to finish it. I am also still having a hard time figuring out the topic for my final project. I already got some pretty neat ideas though. And also, Blacky, one of the kittens that lives in our home, bites my earphone and now it's missing a speaker. Perfect.
Everything else is just about the same. I started writing and reading daily again. Yeay. I also planned to update the website again because I have some new ideas that I want to implement, although I don't know when I will have the time to do it. I think next week would do it.
Now going into a more serious topic. I am a fan of superhero movies. And one quote that I'm obsessed with the most is this one from Iron Man 3:
You start with something pure. Something exciting. Then come the mistakes, the compromises. We create our own demons.
At least for me, the world is a scary place to live. I know I am so fragile in it. And every now and then, I choose to lie to myself. Lying that everything's going to be allright. That it couldn't get worse. And for better or worse, it works. It saves me a couple of times in most of depressing times in my life. And I realized that unconsciously, I've created this image of myself that is strong, independent, and basically invincible in my mind. This complete opposite of my actual self is the one that I depend on living. It convinces me when I doubt. It strengthens me when I'm weak. It gives me a will to continue when I give up on another dead-end. It is my saviour. And who knows, maybe it's also my demon.
