“Closing your eyes isn’t going to change anything. Nothing’s going to disappear just because you can’t see what’s going on. In fact, things will be even worse the next time you open your eyes. That’s the kind of world we live in, Mr Nakata. Keep your eyes wide open. Only a coward closes his eyes. Closing your eyes and plugging up your ears won’t make time stand still.”
— Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami


a bowl of fish noodles,
with or without coconut milk,
with or without vegetables,
still is edible.
honestly, it doesn't really make a difference in the way it tastes with or without these.
the only difference is perhaps,
it's colourless.

injections always seem painful,
cause we are by default drugged with the thought that injections are painful.
that's why the sight of the needle and the whole torturing process of it coming nearer to your skin is more painful than it is in your skin.
on the other hand,
when a papercut happens,you feel a slit in your skin,and it doesn't seem like anything big,
but give it a minute or so and you can feel the stinging pain that follows,
and the pain you feel is greater than what you expected out of it.

how i wish what i am experiencing is an injection instead of a papercut.
