Sometimes I feel smart. It's usually when it comes to stuff like general knowledge; all thanks to all the books I read as a child. Can say I know a little of many things, but am not really that knowledgeable; kind of like a 'Jack of all trades'.
Sometimes I feel dumb. This is when it comes to studies, because I've lost all my motivation to retain all the information in my head, to think and analyse and what-nots so that I learn stuff.. And also partly because I've no confidence I'll be able to do it. A students' mental block.. IF that's what I can call it.. And IF that is any excuse at all.
But one weird and extremely annoying thing about humans is, that many people don't like to listen to others, simply because that person is too 'smart' or too 'dumb'.
Smart people (often those with no paper qualifications to show) are often not taken seriously, or even ignored. Because what they say is too 'cheem' - too sophisticated - and no one else has analysed it from their viewpoint.
Or that they think too much and too in-depth, but have no idea how to express their opinions in words. Like some people often think all over the place, if someone makes a remark or comment.. And they think, "hmm why did she say that? is it because it's really like that, or she just said it to piss me off blah blah blah".
Or that they think of stuff that is kind of out-of-this-world, like, "why is it that I seem to have experienced this before, is it because of past lives or out-of-body experiences?" and no one... well.. understands.
Then how about 'dumb' people? I don't think there are truly any dumb people on Earth, only those who are born with low IQ, or got their brains damaged by something..
Oftentimes the case is just that people don't like to think, or are too zonked-out to answer in well-construed sentences a.k.a understandable manner, or are just queer in that they don't like to give straightforward answers, and they get marked as being 'dumb'. Just like me... I'm one of those..
Or just that the person generally looks as if she doesn't know what's going on (although she does), or that the person is hard-of-hearing, kind of blind, just doesn't like to show emotions and stuffs.
So what am I saying.. My brain's bursting. I'm thinking too much and worrying too much lately.. And don't ask me what I'm thinking about.. Right now I'm falling into the 'smart' category in terms of chimology random thoughts, but falling into the 'dumb' category in terms of studies..
And there's something else in general that keeps making me laugh. This scene keeps playing back in my mind. Comment comment if you've got anything to say about this that I'm gonna tell you about:
A guy (I'm calling him Robo) hates to go to work, he loves his toy robots and would rather stay at home playing with them, than to wear his worksuit, carry his workbag and wait for the bus to take him to his workplace.. [i'm like robo.. i'd rather stay at home to play with my dogs than to go to school]
And so he sighs..
with a huge gust of air..
Into the neck of a lady in front of him.
The lady then promptly whacks Robo in the face with her workbag and screams "PERVERT!"
Robo goes, "Why?!" and chases after the lady, to deny any pervertism that he's being accused of........... ahhh and she runs to a policeman and a group of training taekwondo clubbers... and you know what happens...
They chase after him and he goes slipping and sliding across the marble floors of the walkways.. (cos of his workshoes - you know guys' workshoes always have very smooth bottoms)
There's Japanese comedy drama for you. This scene was barely 1 minute into the first episode, and already had me in stitches.
Perhaps it's a good reminder to say that I'm easily amused by others' misfortunes.. One guy almost fell over (and he hopped hopped hopped to one side) when the MRT train screeched to a stop on Friday.. Again that scene had me in stitches.
sighs. Robo, you're making me laugh again. I can't forget the look on your face when you're scared!
Am a girl who generally acts nice in public, but inside her head, she probably thinks you're a waste of life. And that's why she's quiet.
