(0 ) 12:57 It's 初一 today! 恭喜发财 and all that. This year we're not really visiting many relatives. Hurray for me. I hate visiting relatives. Not that I don't like them. It's just that I hate smiling to them and pretending that life is good when it really isn't. And all those smiling aunties... they have vicious tongues. And cousins. Seeing them again would be weird. *sigh* I don't know. Haven't seen them for a year or so anyway. Don't really feel close to any of them anymore.
Talking about degrees of closeness, I don't seem to feel very close to anyone right now, 5TORM not included, of course. Everyone else is just like an acquaintance who sees only certain sides of me. A close friend is someone who knows you inside out. Maybe not all of you, but most of you anyway. And they know you enough to be able to predict what you'd do in certain situations even better than yourself, because they know you from the outside, and that's more accurate. Heh.
