Sometimes I find that being the omniscient point of view can have its negative aspects. You see things going on both sides of the party, and when you realize that one side is having affairs that the other side can't see, you can't tell. But I guess sometimes it's better off not knowing rather than knowing. It isn't fair, but life isn't fair. But you can help but feel helpless....you can do something about it, but you just can't either. The contradictions of life. *sigh*

On another note, I just finished watching a Japanese drama called Galileo. Yeah...when I first saw the name of this drama I was like "huh?!" But after reading reviews and synopsis, I gave it a try and I got addicted and loved it. The point of me mentioning this isn't to introduce this drama, rather to make a point. But if you haven't watched it, you should, if you like mysteries.

The drama is solving criminal cases, but these cases are based on 'supernatural' phenomenons. The main lead is a male physicist professor. He goes on helping the female lead, who is the detective, to resolving these cases by proving the supernatural phenomenons aren't supernatural at all, rather they were created somehow, someway.

The whole drama revolved around science. And truthfully, I love science. I like physics, I think it's interesting listening to how these theories came upon, especially about space, stars, and galaxies. But in the end, I didn't go on to study physics. Instead I went onto Computer Science and Engineering and that didn't work out so well either.

Point is, though many of us when we were younger we wanted grow up and have a career in something that we were deeply passionate about. But in the end, how many of us actually make that come true? Because I certainly didn't and probably am not going to. Back in the days, I used to be super shy, more shy than I am now. Now I consider myself to be more social. Who would have thought back then that eventually I would be changing majors into communications? Because I certainly didn't. Thing is, there are many of us who have things we are passoniate about, but we never pursue them as our future careers. Because sometimes it can lead us from loving it to hating it. Like the saying goes, "there's a fine line between love and hate." And that line isn't too hard to crossover. Or sometimes we just aren't meant to do what we want and instead, we do something we never thought of. Life is full of surprises.

We can't always be who we want to be, then why not make the best of we can be?
