YES Pain YES Gain




‘No Pain, No Gain’ has been a rather common heard idiom that someone will say while encouraging others to be more open to challenges and try new things so that more opportunities and experiences can be gained.

This is ME from The Greatest Showman

          I have always been so open to new experiences that my life motto is “LAI!” to every challenge or rants my friends threw at me. “Lai” means ‘come on’ in Cantonese. Like, how I sometimes call out my poop in the toilet. The irrational and reckless Vivian will not consider the consequences and say YES to every fcuking dare people threw at me. This can lead to some really terrible consequences. Yet, I never did learn my lesson. Because of something I hold dear to, NO REGRET!
          I led a really adrenaline-rushing year in 2019, because that year the rebellious, egoistic, careless monster was controlling my whole body and soul. I had the wildest experiences that resulted a lot of disappointment, sadness, painstakingly tremendous horrifying experience in my 2019.
          But, there’s one thing I will tell people when I reflected it back. I told everyone that even though how hurtful and horrendous those incidents, I would proudly tell people that I have no REGRET.
Yes, I won’t regret every fcuking decision I made back then. It made me who I am today. Surely, what I decided for every turning point, I would still rationally think about all the possibilities and risk that it portrays. I only do something in the condition that no one will get hurt by the process of it. The result, whereas, everyone has to bear with it, as good choices can lead to bad results due to the unexpected changes happened in between.
          Daring, adventurous and fearless is my iconic personality. I have always been that nagging friend who keep bugging them to try new things. “Never try, never know.” This is the non-debatable rule how my world works.
You think bad, bad things come. You think good, bad things still come. You think nothing, but you DO SOMETHING, at least something good/bad will happen. The chances are you will eventually gain something out of the pain you deal with.
          Perception is important. No one tells you to think there is always unicorn or rainbow-themed castle be there waiting for you. You just need to suck the good out of the bad, even if it only has 0.00000000000000000000000000001%. It’s there. You just have to see through it.

Emo is alright but dont let it fuck ya up

I had publicly scolded my girlfriend and called her as a bitch. I had broken down and cried uncontrollably in my working place. Yeah. My emotional self fucked me up once, or probably two time only. Fine, it was countless for someone forgetful like me. Those were some shitty dark times that I had been experiencing, which the emo Vivian back then had no idea I was actually in a messed-up situation that I went around to fuck other people’s lives too.           Actually, being emotional is not wrong. But, present this emo side of YOU in a self-destruction, ruining-people-lives way is just purely immoral and shameful. Putting your negative and sentimental self in front of people had some rules: it has to be done in private and secret place. No one wants to know how pity and pathetic your life that you have to shout out to all the other people around you who don’t even know you in your first place. Tell someone that you trust in a quie...

Mental Health 0.2: You are not a SAVIOR!

  Helping vs Caring Do you really try to help in a good intention or something else?      When your loved ones are suffering or facing some problems, are you eager to help out by voicing out your solutions, your recommendations to do this and do that? You will be so contented and happy when they accept your methods, even if they actually did not really ask for it and haven’t completed what they wanna tell ya.  Yeah, you got that right! You maybe have some savior complex going on in you.      Savior complex , or called as white knight syndrome , is the time that you put your disgusting gross finger into other people’s businesses and think that you are saving their butt off. But, actually it is annoying to them because no one asks for them.      We literally live in a world surrounding of K-drama scenes broadcasting how the hero is saving the life of a depressed and financially draught girl from some traumatized moments. Why can'...

not Cool being Fool but acting Cool is Foolish

The most daunting question asked in interview is not these: “What is your strength?”, “What do you think you can contribute to the company?” or “What is your career aspiration?”. To me, the make-my-heart-stop-a-beat question is “Do you have any questions for us (the company)?”.             My inner thought is like: Wow, now you want me to ask you questions when this is an interview OF me? Most of the time, we think that job interviews are for us to show the best version of ourselves to fit the criteria and requirements of the job sets. No question asked. But little do we realize that this is not a full-on Q&A section for company to know you. It is an interactive conversation between 2 parties who want to get the best out of each other for the better.             People tend to have this misconception that only people who are fool and stupid ask questions, especially tho...
