Today sch was simple too, nothing much happened.

After sch I met up with a good friend of mine, had a good chat, though not as gratifying actually, compared to others, but still glad we talked. It takes both efforts to maintain a friendship, or any relationship too.

Perhaps, today, Ive learnt much more during tutorial. Yes, surprisingly, my tutor might not be the best tutor, and might be a bore to many, but she indeed has interesting quotes to share. The first was taken from the Good News Translation bible,

Proverbs 27:20 Human desires are like the world of the dead - there is always room for more.

This is interesting because though same meaning, I think this version gave a stronger image of the capacity of human desires. Surprisingly, this is one version that people seldom reads. Yes, indeed, human desires are like the world of the dead, people kept dying, just as our wants kept growing. As I grow up, I noticed my bucket list kept growing.

Then the next thing she said was: The opposite of love isnt hate, its indifferent.

Yes, precisely! Even in hate, there is a certain degree of love, because it still means something to you, that it matters to you because you loved, thats why you get angry, thats why you hate, but if you are indifferent, it simply means you dont care about it anymore, that it doesnt concerns you, you are not part of it in any ways.

It's surprising that I hear all these in an Econs class. For that, Im quite glad Im in this CDS.
