can't bring me down.

While working on my research proposal for CUHK that DUE several hours later, I would conclude my life. I have to admit that was my choice when I first came to UCLA.

I realize time is always a matter. When I first came to UCLA, I only went to two student organizations to meet new friends, alpha phi omega and Chinese Christian Fellowship. They are two completely different organizations, mostly local people in alpha phi omega and mostly hong kong people in Chinese christian fellowship.

I attended at least 5 meetings for Chinese christian fellowship and I made my choice. I decided to stick in alpha phi omega. I decided to pledge alpha phi omega to experience something I never experienced before. 1.5 years later, I realize I got suck-ed into this organization.

Let say I made a choice to stay in Chinese Christian fellowship. I may hang out with bunch of hong kong fobs at the end because most of time or my majority of friends will be in this organization. That sounds cool because I can talk to "my" people and won't feel lonely and left out.

After 1.5 years of alpha phi omega, I realize I have only a few friends from hong kong and I do not fit in here. SO I decided to "explore" new organization or give a shot to CCF again. BUT time is really a matter. I checked on facebook (the worst thing ever in the world) and I saw some people were in CCF when I first came to UCLA and now they become a group of fobs hanging together. Which means, they spent the 1.5 years hanging around together and became good friends.

What happen to next? I realize it's too late for me to get a bunch of friends like this. I can only trace back the day in my memory. I claim myself as dumb because I am in the middle of all kinds of people, between local and international, between boys and girls, between you and me.

Although shit happens, a song from Paul Wong enlightens my life. No matter what happens in the remaining 3 months in UCLA, "can't bring me down!"
