Happy Thoughts - Blog Posts

It's hard sometimes. To live a life with happiness. But it surely reminds you that life itself is never supposed to be happy. It's supposed to be interesting. Full of surprises and shocks. Now answer me, what keeps you waking up every day? It's the will to see another day with hope of getting through it alive. There's no meaning to life, it's us who put meaning in it. What is important is to live each day with the nonchalant optimism that the next will be better, it doesn't matter if it isn't any better. What matters is that you made into another day!

Touching grass isn't enough, i need to kidnap my childhood enemy, torture, humiliate and kill him. With a Christmas playlist playing.

I know a lot of people don’t want to live anymore, and I know many have lost hope, thinking their lives won’t get any better. I completely understand where they’re coming from, I felt that too at some point and obviously get episodes of sadness and regret. Sometimes the turmoil the world throws at us—the overthinking, the stress, and the deep sense of dissatisfaction and disconnection—makes it so hard to believe things can improve.

But in those moments, what keeps me going are the unexplored ventures ahead of me. There are so many books I haven’t read, so many movies I haven’t watched. Perhaps there’s a legendary album yet to release that I haven’t heard. There are so many fields, skills, and hobbies left to discover. So many places to visit, and so many people to meet.

And what about the person I’m supposed to be loved by? There’s so much this world offers that’s far beyond the adversities we face. I look at beautiful, articulate women, draped in elegance and poise, and I wonder what I’ll look like one day. A single book changed my career decisions—who knows what else I’ve been wrong about all this time?

What will I look like as an adult? As an elderly person? I have to make my younger self proud, too. When I think about all of this, the negative thoughts start to fade. There’s so much I have yet to know and experience, and I’m not going to let my past define my future. Yes, these things are sometimes overwhelming, but I think , these things are worth living for 🩷

Just a thot👾

Thoughts on Mr. Hiiragi's Homeroom (3 Nen A Kumi: Ima kara Mina-san wa, Hitojichi Desu)

While looking through recommended films on Netflix, I came across a Japanese drama series, Mr. Hiiragi's Homeroom. As I got curious about the title, I watched the trailer and the summary. I thought this seemed interesting, just like a detective movie, and since the teacher is an art teacher, I saw famous paintings present in the film.

Upon watching the first few episodes, I got hooked immediately. I wanted to know what would happen to the students and Mr. Hiiragi. The event happened in 10 days and every episode revealed plenty of twists, so I kept watching it. I liked how the story progressed and the character development of the students was remarkable. I like how the teacher reached out to the students even though it was different than the usual learning session. It was a little extreme and violent, but I don't mind since it made the drama more interesting, making it not the typical classroom lecture.

Mr. Hiiragi indeed cared too much, which led him to create his plan. The question is, what is really right or wrong? In order to know what is morally right, we need to dig deeper into the reasons than the action. Sometimes we want to do things for the right reasons, but people do not grasp the true meaning. Mr. Hiiragi has a pure heart to help others; it's just that he needs to take drastic actions to reveal everything.

The drama just reflects how the world is so cruel and how each one faces different struggles. As the world advances with technology, cyberbullying has become rampant, and it has caused havoc in lives and added struggles. Words can hurt and they can become the knives that pierce our hearts. People sometimes lack compassion and understanding. It showed that there was no safe place. Even the people who should be guiding the younger generation are the ones causing emotional damage. If only each of us were kinder to one another, it would make life better. People should stop hating and being angry. Do not live in regret. Life is too precious to be wasted. Enjoy life and have the motivation and hope to survive every day.

The main character, Masaki Suda, always raises the bar high. His performance is outstanding all throughout, but, of course, the other characters played their parts as well. Kudos also to Mei Nagano, who portrayed Sakura Kayano. I felt her emotions.

This is a much watch film. I highly recommend it.
