Say Hi! Because Hello is too complicated! =') Yays! The exams is finally over! So now I am feeling really happy and nonsen. (no matter how bad the results might be) I think they come together, I meant happiness and nonseness. ='0 That's prolly why when we do nonsensical things together, we kinda enjoy it. Sometimes. Well, but for the people who's watching. They prolly think, "Uhh, uncool."
Woke up late today, because I thought the paper starts at 4.30, but it turns out to start at 2.30, so I didn't really have much time to study. Slept rather early yesterday because I thought I will have the time to study tmr. Oh well~ The past is like a hamburger. Just eat and forget. =_=,
Anyway while on the way to the very far away bus stop this morning, I actually came up with an idea for the story that I'm suppose to write for the next TTB magazine! So I quickly SMSed CS, no reply tho, he's prolly busy... hmm... So I think I want to write a preview of this story here, before I forget it. =') So this is how the story goes:
Once upon a time, boy saw girl and boy fell in love with girl. So he prayed to God everyday, wishing he could see the girl again. And finally one day, his actions moved the God. The God said, "You want to see the girl again? Very well, you have to give up everything you have now and you'll have to practise Neidan for a thousand years. Only then can you only see her once. Will you not regret?" The boy replied, "No, I won't regret.". And so the boy started practising Neidan. A thousand years is a long time. During this period, the boy have lost himself, gone crazy, turned emo, and even got hungry, but he eventually survived through each and everyday. He totally forgotten day and night, lost count of the time left for the thousand years to end but what he didn't forget was the reason he was doing this. He could go on forever if not for God who appeared infront of him the second time.
This time, the God asked, "For this thousand years that has passed, what have you learn?". The boy replied, "I've learned that the wait is worthwhile, and now that I can see the girl. I am very happy.", he paused for awhile and continued, "I've also learn that man can live without food but not without a strong heart. I am very hungry." After hearing what the boy said. The God shook his head and looked very disappointed. He said, "That was not what I've wanted you to learn...". The boy cut in and exclaimed, "You're not going to break the promise are you!?". God took a deep breath before saying, "The girl is dead already. What I've wanted is for you to learn is to let go, to give up. If only you have realise that, you won't be in as much pain as you are now.".
When the boy heard that he was infuriated, but more than that he was hungry and sad. At the same time he is able to comprehend a new understanding which differs from what the god has mentioned. Which is that if you want something so badly, you should have worked for it and not just pray for it. What he should have done, was not look for God, but look for the girl. The God looked at the boy in his eyes, he can feel the intensity of his emotions, as if he was being stabbed by a thousand swords and at the same time haven't eaten for a thousand years. Out of sympathy, the God said, "I can revive her for a day and let you see her once, but for that to happen, you will have to practise Neidan for...". "No." said the boy said straightforwardly. "I am hungry, I want to go back to where her body is, that's what you've promised.".
For those who got no idea what Neidan is, it's actually 修炼 in Chinese. For those that think it is to isolate yourself and learn some new kungfu... No! It's not that, Neidan is actually a concept in Taoist Chinese alchemy. It is a series of physical, mental, and spiritual disciplines intended to prolong the life of the body and create an immortal spiritual body that would survive after death. But actually I didn't thought of it as so complicated. For me, it is just allow the boy to have a too much time to medidate, contemplate, and reflect on what he has done and what he is doing so as he can be enlightened and come up with a new understanding, at the same time, he is to be granted with immortality. So that explains why the boy won't die while practicing Neidan. My apologies for the story to revolve so much around the Taoist tradition and Chinese culture. But that is the idea so I won't change it! I've already compromise by changing Buddha to God instead. =')
Anyway for those who think that the story has already come to an end! Nope, not at all, although it's very long already, it's to be continued. And if you want to hear about it. You have to get yourself a issue of the next TTB magazine (which I guess won't be ready until next year sad). Or you can ask/make me to tell you the story! ='D
Also, this story is also inspired by the MV of 求佛 by 邹名剑which I watched yesterday! Although it seems like I kinda copy the plot of the start! I promise you that the 2nd part of the story will have really POWERFUL twist which you can't imagine! WOO PIA! WA HAA! BULU BULU! SHYA! Sorry, trying to expressed powerful. So yaa, it will be powerful but not nonsen. =_=, So here is a MV:
Sorry I really like to use lyrics to lengthen my post! ='X Actually wanted to post my holy day resolution today. But I think this post is pretty long and interesting enough. I think only. So I'll leave it to my next post! Look forward to it!

Story of Santa Clause is well-known,
but the full story was never told.
The story that tells his daily live,
People around him who made him happy.
Pasts and presents he left it here,
While he went searching for the one.
Although they share the same mission,
This man is no clause, He is a bro.
Here's the story of the bro, santa-man.
Hope you'll enjoy reading it! Ho Ho Ho...
