I didn’t realise it is already the 8th
blog until I checked the schedule. “Time
flies.” The words have become one of my
pet phrases recently.
The latest reminder of this sentence is
that SM2 NTU boys these days are planning back home. Because two of my roommates (generally) are
SM2, I can feel the passage of time clearly.
Last moment, we had just greetings, now we say ‘farewell’. Tomorrow, they will have left, towards their
homes. So when can we get home? That is a question. Maybe no worry, since time will fly~
Strangely, I never say ‘missing home’,
not because I am a boy, since a man can also say; not because in my home nothing
is worth missing, since I have respectable parents and two lovely sisters; not
because I am not missing home, since I also have a mankind heart as
everybody. So why? It is because I’m afraid that once I speak
out, I will never miss it or I will miss it more; or I am afraid that the words
will quickly go with the wind but let nothing left. Eh…Kind of misty, right? Maybe I have to use my clumsy words to
explain further.I always forget what I said or what I promised. Sometimes, since I speak something out, I will mentally over-relax about it, and then maybe I will overlook it. I don’t want a boy overseas home doesn’t have his home in heart.
I also always over-think about what I said (How can I do that at the same time!). If I say I’m missing home, then I will think of it a lot, such as some reasons (it seems like what I’m doing now). I’ll do miss home more. After all, memory depends on how often and how many times one memorise. The more I think, the deeper impression I’ll have. I don’t want this missing to influence my life here.
I always believe that time flies. Whether I say it or not, it makes no
difference. If I say I’m missing home, the
only thing is that my voice will go with the wind, fly with the time. The time I spend saying will also fly. I don’t want to waste time. By the way, my family must want me seize the
day. So for the sake of them, I won’t
say it, either.
Oh, my god! How many times I have said “I never say ‘missing
home’” so far, and how much time I have wasted!
I have to hurry up to finish my essay now and make way to learn more!
Another Zhukai-style reflection. It is interesting and I understand you quite much. Sometimes I complain why we cannot do home but some can. But now, I think that it is acceptable. The reason is that I will appreciate and cherish the time spent with my family more when I go back.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your understanding first~
DeleteBut I am sorry that I may not understand your words "why we cannot do home"...
But it's Okay, at least the last sentence I quite understand and agree with.
Thank you for your comments!
yes, most of time i feel that it makes no difference whether i say i miss home or not. and sometimes it was even worse to express my home sickness because the situation is totally beyond my control, which adds to my despair.but compared to you, i tend to keep on saying "i do not miss home at all", or say"i miss home"with no perception of my words!
ReplyDeleteHere I say I never say missing home, but in fact I say it in my heart, maybe...Essentially I think we are the same on this point.
DeleteThak you for your comments!
