I played football today,  I enjoyed that, but it only feels good for so long and in the end… it ends. Everyone goes home and goes to sleep.

 

I have been awake for almost 3 days now and going onto my 4th day. I should be really tired, but now that I'm home, I don't feel tired. I think I could probably play another 3 hours of football and still be in the same state.

 

I just want to feel relaxed, secure and I want everything just to be right. That may not make sense, but I just want it to be all OK.

 

Sometimes I just want life to just shut down from existence. I just want to get away.

 

I had a really good day today. Well sort of. I studied in the library for 7 hours and then went to play football for the first time in 4 years.

 

I should feel happy. Yet here I am feeling lost with no direction, quite literally. (Just thinking about it)

 

I just want to be at peace. But I can't be at peace. I just can't explain myself either that well as I don't know what the problem is. I just wish I could be a different person and not have to struggle so much god damnit.

 

Test

 

I mean I have a test tomorrow for lesson 6. I just finished learning the lesson 5 characters. I thought I was ahead in that. But memorizing so many of these characters is frustrating. I just want to scream right now. (In fact I'm doing that in my head right now)

 

I'm fake

 

I have also come to realize I'm very fake. Even when I'm not happy, I appear very happy and I'm good at making myself look happy. I just don't want to upset anyone. I just want to be real. But being real means being upset in front of everyone. It means hurting others. I wish I never told my close friend here in Taiwan about my troubles. I don't want to hurt of affect anyone, but I just feel a little hurt inside.

First run of 2020 – 5.89km

I have not run properly in a good while so I found today's run quite tough actually. It was definitely not an easy run - given that Christmas and New Year's had me eat a lot of food and frankly, I've not been eating with health in mind - let's just say. So as part of...
