Of courage of women and death

It really often eludes me as to why women are so easily confined and determined to be "the weaker sex". While men certainly have greater physical strength than women on the average, I think too much emphasis are placed on this point.

"One is not born a woman, one becomes one". While some may view the process as a restricting doctrine, Im not quite sure why this actually suggests that men actually really never grow up or mature (if the reverse is true, that men are born men. How does that sound?)

Is my situation because of the peculiar environment I live in? (where men are made men through some years in bootcamp?) (Are they made men, or do they just look like made men)

Or is it due to my inability to comprehend the percieved differences between men and women, of not being able to understand there truly is a significant difference.

Are women actually better able to solve wrongdoings because they can admit, seek & accept help (as compared to men, somehow constitutes weakness (which is itself a natural and neutral phenomenon, but somehow consists of negative connotations when applied to men) )

If only I had a little more of the tenacity easily found in women...

Silenced

I silenced myself for the past week. Or at least being out of my control. Separation to protect whom? Myself, or them? Some must be getting used to my absence already. I can't withstand further bouts of "events". Because what will be left? Of the last days, I've given up. Yes I am selfish, to not hold thoughts for others. My mind is still mine though. In the end, I only have faith in the most distant. I didnt reply your previous letter. I am so sorry. I loved you, sab. But I guess this is the only way.

Quiet....

K I think I gonna dedicate this post to one teacher that had just left the school to pursue her dreams. She is 陈老师. I think most of the students will be shocked to know that 陈老师 has left the school quite abruptly. Didnt really know until yesterday( or should I say tues,her last day in school). What happened was that she did tell me when we met in sch on tues, but I didnt really believe her(kinda shocked). And most people will know 陈老师 as a very friendly, always joking kind of teacher. So I did not really believe her and though she was joking. Found out on wed that she has really left the school. When I heard this, I almost couldnt take the news. Lots and lots of questions ran through my head,felt kinda crushed. She was my favourite teacher after all. And because of myself, I did not even get to say a proper goodbye. But not many found out though. I think she meant to leave quietly. She will have her own reasons I guess. And I certainly hope she will come back and visit us someday. Foun...
