Today, my 5 year-old cousin was throwing a tantrum because we didn't give her some water babies to play with.
And she started to scream and cry, gaining the attention on my Aunt (her God-Ma). The story from then on is no longer important.
What I want to say is, I have a similar experience when I was around 5-6 years old as well. But instead of water babies, it was marbles.
I was getting babysitted by my Nanny then. And I lived around Macpherson, my old house. Nanny lived around that area as well.
I was following my Nanny around her house, when I stumbled on a small container of marbles.
Small, round, and pretty marbles.
I wanted to get my hands on them, play with them, throw them around... you get the point.
When I asked Nanny if I could play with them, she said 'No', and then with a bunch of reasons why I can't play with them.
Now, I was a kid. And kids hardly talk terms with adults. They make people do as they want.
And that was exactly what I did then. I started to speaking loudly, saying I want the marbles, and all that. When she still stood her stand, I threw in my trump card.
I started screaming.
Now, for those who know how kids are like around that age, their screaming really pierce your ears. So, I started screaming and sitting on the floor, throw my tantrum on her. I was unwilling to move until I got my hands on those marbles.
Nanny handled me really well. She still stood her stand, and calmly lectured me.
It was then I realised that I have lost that fight; there's no way I'll get to touch those marbles.
A lesson was taught, and it was a lesson learnt.
I hope my Cousin learnt that as well. =D

On another note, I've just watch an Anime called CLANNAD.
Ok, lecture me, kill me, I don't care. I know I'm supposed to be studying, but I ended up watching Anime. But I did study! I studied the whole of BNF: Lipids!
Yay me! =DD
Anyway, I cried watching CLANNAD. For me to tell you the whole story, would suck as I'm a pretty bad story teller. So, I'll just tell you what made me cry.
How would you feel if you woke up one day, and something seems to be missing in your life?
As if you've forgotten something important; like a friend?
CLANNAD touched on this topic, where the 2 main characters meet this person who is not human nor ghost. This person, is in fact a comatose person.
Yet, it's as if her spirit was away from her body.
At first, everyone could see her. But as her real body condition worsened, her 'spirit' self seems to be disappearing.
You try so hard to remember this person in your life. You may have even spent the whole night with her. However, you wake up the next day, not even remembering her name, or her existence. How would she feel?
And when you finally remember her, you see her again. And she was by your side, all this time.
And even after all that, you'll still forget her. Yet, your body remembers her.
Imagine if the people you cared most about forgot about you. And for them to remember you,
... was not meant to be.
I swear, that'll be even worse then death.

I'll be studying at MP library tomorrow. Anyone cares to join me? =D
