My Own Life Philosophy



So what better to follow my first blog post than to start a second one? By spilling my guts to the entire world.

So, I have my own philosophy involving my interpretation of my life's purpose. My life's purpose is simply to make sure that everyone else is happy. I try my best to hold back my annoyances and set back my grievances, although there is a certain threshold I can take. There is no such thing as a perfect person, but I believe that helping and trusting in other people will always lead to good karma and thus good fortune in the future. I know that's a silly optimistic way of viewing the glass, but I'll be silly and optimistic until I die.

I am a bit more sensitive to others' emotions than most people. I care a lot about my own image and reputation, but not physically, but status-wise. I must be friends with everyone and make no enemies, but that is simply wishful thinking. Everyone has enemies, even in the brightest of corners, because those people have the biggest shadows. In a lot of ways, I relate myself to Kaiji from Ultimate Survivor Kaiji, someone who blindly trusts in other people no matter what, even if it leads to defeat and shame.

I am also very gullible (probably shouldn't have said that, now everyone's going to start teasing me and lying to me). This is my greatest flaw and easily exploited by my closest friends. This means I can be easily tricked and manipulated by others. Another relation is to Kanzaki Nao from Liar game, someone who is brutally honest, which gets her into hopeless situations one way, yet is also how she saves herself once in a while in tough situations. I guess its the yin and yang in the world, everyone has a bit of both. ☯

A Passionate Review of One Outs (26 EP)

" What does it mean to be a winner? Is it the last one standing? It means to climb over a mountain of corpses to get to the top. By no means is it a glorious sight to behold, in fact, it is extremely cruel. Even so, if you still wish to seek victory... then you must become a devil. " "A low possibility means it is not zero" -Tokuchi Toua, One Outs. I LOVE suspense. Whenever I read books, I always sprint near the end of the book, especially if the climax is extremely gripping. This was especially true for One Outs , I remember I finished this anime on the last day of school sophomore year in my World History AP Class. I always loved the trope in which a character bests the odds no matter what. In One Outs , the motto "NOBODY WINS BUT I" really encompasses this idea, that even when the odds have flung Tokuchi against the walls and all hopes seem to have been lost, Tokuchi manages to pull out a MacGyver and save the day. However, most MacGyvers usuall

Why I Attend Williams College

Image
Williams College, ranked #1 National Liberal Arts College by US News, #2 in Best Undergraduate Teaching, and #4 in Best Value College. Williams College is different from other colleges. My mother first told me that her coworkers who knew about Williams spoke of it like it was a "Little Harvard." I didn't really understand the nickname's true meaning until I got here. I applied to Williams College Early Decision, mostly because I felt strongly about a liberal arts education and loved my one-day visit here. The admission counselor's talk was more than just selling the college to us, but also trying to help us find the best fit. This was starkly different from college visits to Dartmouth or USC, in which the counselors would talk for 45 minutes about the great opportunities at their school. The counselor's humility at Williams struck a chord within me, and I knew I wanted to be here after that talk. Something that helped me gain a lot of insight into Willia
