008 - Lent first, rant later

HAHAHAHAHA I am so funny. Obviously I haven't lost my sense of humour over the long hiatus.

Okay, so firstly, the lessons I've learnt during lent: 

1. I've been revealing too much of my life to the Internet (and the general population on the Internet) before. Right after Lent ended, when I started to tweet, it made me feel very uncomfortable. It sounds so ridiculous now because last time I couldn't even stop tweeting. It felt like all these random people on the Internet were able to hear my thoughts, and most of what went through my mind on that day is something like this: "Oh no, this is too private," "Someone weird whom I don't know is going to read this but I won't even know anything about him/her!" "What is happening to me?!" "They shouldn't know this!" All of them were just running through my head and I was pretty close to going insane, if I must say so myself. (Figuratively, of course.)

2. God's there to hear me even when there isn't anyone. I was quite shocked, now that I think back about it, that I wasn't really angry many times during that period, just once or twice. Though those one or two times were really horrible, I was so angry I think I was close to tears. But it really made me realize that we don't have any one person that we can always talk to, well except for God of course. Now, if I wasn't on a fast, I would've ranted out my heart on twitter or something, raging and all, with the swear words and curses to people that I'm sure I would certainly regret. Yeah, so it really made me calm down and start praying because when no physical human being is there to hear you out who else can you call on but God? No one. Exactly. 

3. People nowadays rely so much on the Internet. It just made me wonder if the Internet crashes, what would happen? I don't know. Maybe people will start wailing like how North Koreans cried when Kim Jong Il died. 

I really can't think of anything else right now because my brain is like half dead so yeah. 

I am too tired to rant. I will rant in the next post maybe the day after tomorrow or after that or whenever I'm free. Probably before the mid-years because I'll be so stressed out, I'll need some release somewhere, and that would be here.
