uninspiring

either i have been just too lazy, or that i have ceased to see anything worth debatable. in the past few days, i could see myself getting less and less caring. i didn't mind at all what happened around me. my excuse was just being grateful. partially; it is true.



although facebook has been a rather addictive website, i maintain to see the flaws of my friends which have been really evident. the reason for this is that they answer quizzes that have results which are either scripted or shallow. they not only answer these quizzes, but they choose top 5 whatever it is they think of. and i'm not going to deny, i've had my fair share of meaningless fun too.



i was very disturbed at what my friend did. she chose top 5 bodyguards. one of them was chace crawford from gossip girl who played the role of a class whore. it was understandable because he does seem a bit tough enough to beat up a flower. but aside from that, i wouldn't mind him being my bodyguard.



but it was the others which she chose that made it seem as though all the years of her book reading has been put to waste. she chose two people: zac efron and professor dumbledore. it was okay but it came to the point that in really made me think. what the hell is zac efron going to do?



she chose a fictional character and a guy who's too gay to be gay and too straight to be straight. although professor dumbledore has been the greatest and most powerful wizard in the harry potter books, but he remains only existent in the minds of his readers. and magic is not real. there's only technology.



it didn't amuse me at all. it was as though she had given up all her sanity and traded it for boys over flowers (a korean telenovela). to my surprise, there are many who have chosen the same choice. it seems to me that they confuse humor with stupidity. i mean... why the hell would you choose zac efron? what is he going to do? sing to her enemies until they die of boredom?



but after all that, she chose another top 5 which made me think twice on putting her on my dumb list. she chose "top 5 things that cheer me up". her choices were very simple, yet one was a choice i have not seen from anyone yet.



her first choice was ice cream. it made me smile because it was and still is one of the things that cheer me up. it's very cold and comforting. it is a wild contrast to the hot and burning sensation of pain and disappointment.



but her second choice made me think either she was out to impress, or that it was a very wise choice. i believe that God would have opened his gates earlier and wider for her when she chose prayer.



i could not fathom what she meant, i just understood what she wanted to say. and it gave me a very new perspective not only towards her, but to the people i like to pick on in my mind. unknown to her, i laugh at her maniacally in my mind. i ridicule her ways while keeping it all safe within the compartments of my imagination. well, i know... that's mean.





when i came to turn the table around, i realized how much i am not like her. of course i would forget about God. but for someone like her to remember that must have took much courage.

the thing with us right now is that we would choose not to think because it is a stress-provider. people avoid each other because some people are deep and wise while some are shallow and materialistic. i don't know whether what started this fad, but it has become rather annoying.

although i am in no position to say whatever it is i am thinking of, but it is really amazing how people forget about things that are really important. and i don't know whether there is something i can do to fix this dilemma. but i'm certain that my friend has began in her little ways.
