Date: April 25th, 2012 2:20 AM Author: glittery slate principal's office as a preteen.
they basically robbed me of the right of enjoying the life of an ordinary person, because it doesn't matter that i can speak accentless English and Mandarin, and am well versed in both cultures, i'm fundamentally different from the ordinary person in either country, to the point that i would never be able to find an ordinary life in either country fulfilling.
fuck my parents, fuck my life.

i basically don't have any belongings beyond the bare essentials to function, because i know i may have to move in a few months or a year, and it means i would have to throw out/leave behind anything that's too large, or anything that's unnecessary. my apartment is barely furnished, and i have no desire to furnish it because i know i will prob be gone relatively soon.
this carries over to work. my office is also largely free of any personal items, because deep down i don't think i will work here for very long. this is obviously a problem, because they expect you to act like you will be here for the long haul. fuck that.

as for wall decorations, paintings and frames can easily be packed and shipped for minimal cost. you can do an accent wall in the living room on one saturday afternoon.
*BAM* your place looks decent, yet still minimalistic.
