Some very silly things that really took me by surprise and somehow amazed me:
° Vikarn and I were talking about a photo of ours and he mentioned it as a green photo. I didnt quite understand the statement and remebered it to be a purple photo. Only when we saw the photo did we realise that we both were correct. Actually he had worn a green t-shirt in the photo and therefore referred it as a green photo. And since I was wearing a purple jacket I remembered the photo being purple. Strange how we cling to things that we are related to and forget to take in the rest of the details!!!
° Well, I was walking to the tram station from my college and since it was not a very short walk, deicided to listen to music. While I was walking I heard some strange noise coming from nearby. I turned back twice to check whether anybody was following me but failed to know the source of the noise. Immediately I turned my music player off and realised that it was only me that was making that noise while walking.Hmm... Strange that when we are too engrossed in other things, we fail to realise what we are doing and suspect the world for it!!
° The other time, I was waiting for the pedestrain signal to turn red for me to cross the road and go to the college. And near me, there was a huge scary dog. I was quite scared of being beside him and decided to cross the road even though the signal was red. As soon as I crossed the road, the signal turned green and the excited dog (hund)started running towards me. I got very scared and screamed out loud. To my surprise, the dog owner was very relaxed and didnt react at all to my screams. And when it was an inch away from me I got paralysed and started making plans to visit the hospital with a dog-bite. But to my amazement it kept on running, past me, into the garden. I was speechless. It was too late that I realised that it was not chasing me at all but was excited about going to the garden near our college. Very strange, how people raise their voices, complain and criticize about the world and dont realise that it is their inner fear that is making them feel subjugated!!
° Well.... The other day I was talking with y flat-mate Lin(from China) about my family and found her to be quite interested in my sisters. Then I asked her about her siblings, to which she told me she is the only child of her parents because in China you are not allowed to have more than one child. Hmm.. I had known it for so long but never thought much about it until that day when she told me about it. Till then life seemed to be empty without siblings!
