Annnnnd it is gone.
Yesterday, in a mad fit of anger (at being forced to sleep outside my bedroom at 5am in the morning, and in general, at the haze and my pathetic attempt at the Math mock paper), I logged onto Blogger and for probably the first time, showed a side of me online.
The thing about posting things in anger is that, usually, it it the process of writing the contents which matter more, than the actual act of posting them online. Personally, I think this is something like.. say beating someone up, strangling someone up in your head or hatching up some revenge plots that makes you feel better at the end of the day. Definitely it is not the actual commiting of those acts which is gona relieve you of your anger, right? (I hope.)
But yeah. I posted it up yesterday, and after a day of stewing in my anger, I felt better and I have now removed it. I can also honestly say that a fear of bad karma is probably a factor in my decision. Haha. Which reminds me of what I once wrote a long time ago, back when my blog resides at Friendster.
I had read an article then, and the article said that, writing something down actually makes you have a stronger memory of what you are writing down, so if you are making a shopping list and stuff, it is okay. But I think what the article was trying to tell us was that, if you are writing stuff down your diary, say what has upset you for the day etc, you may end up remembering that unhappy incident, even if you know, people typically write down such things to make themselves get it out of their systems.
It makes sense to me actually. So I think post mortems of upsetting situations are more beneficial than you know, the actual blow-by-blow kind of reporting of the situation, if you get my drift about the content of the posts.
Okay, so it is yet another hot and hazy day, yet another day of full- hearted procrastination and half-hearted studying =)
