its been more than a year, and i've rediscovered my love of spilling out my most inner thoughts on the internet again, thanks to my Creativity and Innovation class which requires me to write a blog.
anyway, the current issue of the moment is: what you say, you can never take back.
yes or no?

i've recently gone through an unfortunate experience.
i think i might've deserved it, but not completely. i did not perform as i was hoped, and i was told off in front of several people. when i asked about further explanation, i was given an attitude.
anyway, the point is, that experience made me look from a different perspective of them, one that i dont think i can ever turn away from again. its just really hard to look at them the same way from before this happened.
so i guess the advice from my childhood friend Novi Rahmadhani is true. She said: "never hurt anyone's feelings, because once you do, there's no turning back the time to undo it, and there's no cure for it either. you're just stuck that way, the both of you, forever."
so, we have to be careful about what we say, and how we say it. i can never meet them and look them in the eye and be the way i was to them before. when i look at either of them, i will always remember that hallway, and the people looking, and the windy afternoon which i walked with the others to the front gates, crying. its true, words hurt more than sticks and stones.
