I do think that at the end, I just want to pursue my happiness.

But I guess I define a boring life as just something that's simple, mundane, quiet, and nothing that drives my emotions up the hill.

I just want to constantly create things.

That's all I want to do.

I genuinely think I just want to do that for the rest of my life.

I want to create relationships.

I want to create myself.

I want to build myself.

I just want to, you know, do the very mundane things.

no i made it i can't complain is my hair okay when you start the video i'm gonna start the video

okay hi everyone welcome back to my channel oof

that was bad you know we're just gonna go with it we're gonna go with it

so you guys might be what are we talking about today even though the title is just right

there i'm gonna restate it anyway this is how we start the intro right today

we're gonna be talking about why i choose to live the

quote -unquote boring life the reason why i quote the boring life is

because i don't really think a boring life is boring you know

but i feel like this might come off boring to some

people first of all let's just define what i mean by the boring life i mean mundane things things

that me as a child wouldn't really care about

but as i grew older it's just something

that i learned to appreciate just like something that makes you happy

and it doesn't have to be anything grand i kind of associate the boring life with stability i don't know

if this happens to other people but personally for me

that is attacked with it

and you might be why do you want stability the result of a chaotic childhood personally from my experience

when i talk to other people who have experienced like you know a chaotic childhood

they crave stability anyway what do you mean by chaotic childhood it just means like

when you grew up you didn't really have

that sort of emotional stability they might not always be emotionally there for you

and their emotions can change really fast as a child

you might just don't know what to do at least to

at least my attachment style to kind of just be like one foot in

and one foot out the door which is why I'm also a fearful boy.

It's always been one of my goals to change into a secure attachment.

I've always craved like the simple life for a very long period of my time.

As a teen I've always been like I just want to follow this path.

I want to make everyone happy.

I don't want to upset anyone because that'll just cause a lot of chaos.

My emotions will run wild and I can't handle that.

I don't like taking risks.

I don't want to do disappointment and even

if I do take risks it's with the support of others on this path that I'm taking.

Like oh people want me to take this risk i'll take

it it's never for myself it's only been like this year where i'm like okay

i'm gonna take some risk for myself i think life has become a lot easier now

that i'm pursuing my own definition of happiness and my own definition of happiness is just living a very simple life

could me wanting to live a simple life be due to trauma maybe

but my joy i do realize that comes from the little things.

I get to go into an empty coffee shop that's kind of quiet

and I get to get a seat and say not directly in front of the cashier because that is awkward.

Being able to have good company with good friends.

We can have a good lunch and we can just talk about things

and then we can maybe plan a hangout again and we can take cute pictures of each other.

Doing grocery shopping where the grocery store is not super super busy.

I attach my boring life with stability

and also quiet i like the quiet life i think it's also

because i get over overstimulated a lot

which is why i don't get up to parties

because a lot of people just makes me anxious

and it's also me not really being able to fit in usually i feel too fit in it helps

when you know more people right and i just don't

because i'm always just in my room

i've been in my room for the past four days by the way yeah yeah probably not good anyways

and i don't need a big friend group at least for myself i just need

that one person really i just need that one person who has my back

and who's just i believe in you i support you i just need

that one person and i can be so stable i can be

so content with just

that one really really good friend who's like oh

i'll travel with you i'll do stuff with you i understand

you maybe this was why people start dating

i get a lot of comments where you guys are like oh yeah you're

so inspirational i look up to you one thing

that i think I'm gonna constantly say is the fact that

and this is a mistake I've made too is to not idolize anyone

I had this phase in high school I was really into k -pop

and I was like idolizing like these idols

and I think it was just like unhealthy obsession where I

just like put people on the pads of stolen them

when people like you know they do human things I get disappointed

but at the end it's just everyone's human I am human

I want you guys to view me as a human first

it's not like I'm like oh my god don't look up to me

because I feel like

when people look up to people they almost just view them as someone

that's not human like they're not allowed to make mistakes xyz

and i want to say that i've made mistakes i made a lot of mistakes um

when i was a child i grew up in a pretty traditional um household

which is what i think

that leads to a lot of my chaotic you know emotions i think i lived in this bubble everything

that was told to me is right especially as a child

because whatever an adult tells you or whatever your caregiver tells you

Because of that environment, it kind of shapes who you are within that time frame as a kid.

And you just like, you believe everything that you're being told.

I was really not exposed to much besides like that little bubble.

I was in, I remember as a kid, I remember I was in like third grade.

This was like a mistake that I felt pretty bad in.

I wasn't really familiar with like adoptive parents because like the only people that I've seen, their kid looks exactly like their parents.

100

That's what I was exposed to.

101

So as a kid, I remember there was one girl, she was one of the popular girls.

102

I was never popular throughout middle school, elementary school, high school.

103

I remember we were just like doing like rock climbing

104

and for some reason I just really wanted to become this girl's friend.

105

And for some reason I decided to ask her like, oh, why don't you and your dad look alike?

106

And it was a really insensitive thing to ask.

107

But genuinely I meant no harm even though it doesn't matter what my intentions were.

108

It's the impact that matters.

109

Her dad didn't look alike and I just genuinely wanted to know.

110

She just told me on the teacher and I don't remember what happened afterwards

111

but uh i do remember that the rest of third grades didn't go

112

so well because and yeah maybe i deserved to get told on um

113

but i just really didn't know i didn't have my first instagram until like

114

when i was like 14 or 15 this is considered pretty late for people my age

115

because most people have it like elementary school and everything and

116

so i wasn't really exposed to much i remember i had this one conversation

117

when i was like 14ish i think we're probably younger i didn't get pronouns

118

because i always thought that oh

119

if you're a woman you use she her pronouns people get to choose your pronouns i didn't understand

120

that concept i'm like why do we need to do that

121

and it was very problematic and it's also

122

because like as a kid i didn't understand it

123

because i was not exposed to it i think

124

that a lot of my arrogance comes from not being educated not being exposed to things

125

which i think is so important that we should constantly be exposed to more things

126

and i think that

127

because i was exposed to these things later on it led to a lot of disagreements within

128

that little bubble of mine

129

that i was in sometimes have different perspectives compared to your relatives

130

and especially hard especially in like an Asian household families are most important

131

but it's especially difficult when they don't see your point of view

132

and it's hard so I definitely do think that

133

that is definitely one of the components

134

that lead to like a more chaotic childhood for me

135

it's a very hard thing to navigate

136

you never really had experience on like a healthy conflict a healthy disagreement

137

I'm really scared of conflicts I'm scared of disagreements so when

138

that happens I tend to just leave

139

because I just feel like it wouldn't get better which is something that I still need to fix.

140

So even if I do want more things, it needs to be within my morals.

141

I think that people shouldn't shame others for having smaller goals or to having simple goals,

142

you know, because I feel like it's like really much the simple things that brings me a lot of joy.

143

I feel like life is just a very mundane thing.

144

Finding joy in that and sometimes it just makes me really happy.

145

When people say like, what's your dream in life?

146

I don't know what to say.

147

I do think that at the end, I just want to pursue my happiness.

148

I've always been like, I want to be happy.

149

I want to be happy when i say

150

that my actions don't match up with my words because at

151

that moment what i was pursuing at

152

that time i wasn't pursuing them it made me happy

153

it made other people happy am i in a very uncertain position right now

154

because i'm pursuing my happiness in some way yeah

155

i am i am anxious i am uncertain with everything around me at this moment

156

but i'm still feel very true to myself i feel like i'm being truthful to myself now

157

because i'm coming to the conclusion that i I come first.

158

I live once.

159

If I disappoint other people, I disappoint other people.

160

Because this is my life and I'm going to do what makes me happy.

161

I am responsible for the consequences.

162

I feel like I am being honest with myself and I am being truthful to my younger self.

163

When you're younger, you just have so much goals.

164

And now it's like, I don't know what I want.

165

There's so much to life that I don't know what I want.

166

I just want to create.

167

I just want to constantly create things.

168

Like, that's all I want to do.

169

I genuinely think I just want to do that for the rest of my life.

170

I want to create things.

171

I want to paint.

172

I want to film.

173

I want to perhaps even make clothes.

174

I want to create my own jewelry.

175

I think I'll be good at that.

176

I think I'll be good at that if I made my own jewelry.

177

I want to build my own bouquet.

178

I want to design my own room, make my own room.

179

I want to make my own clothes.

180

I want to create relationships.

181

I want to create myself.

182

I want to build myself.

183

I just want to, you know, do the very mundane things.

184

Maybe sit outside and paint.

185

Take sewing classes.

186

So maybe when I keep saying this, it might not be the boring life anymore this might not be the boring life to some

187

but i guess i define a boring life as just something that's simple mundane quiet

188

and nothing that drives my emotions up the hill just something

189

that just can keep my emotions intact and i think

190

that this is something

191

that might change in the future who knows it's it's a blend of right now between pursuing my own happiness

192

and also healing from a lot of my trauma

193

this is my healing diaries episode one why I want to

194

live the boring life the result of a chaotic childhood

195

and I know

196

that some of you guys may be like oh

197

this is a new series how is this different from journal entries

198

but from now on I want to differentiate more clearly between the healing diaries

199

and the journal entries I think

200

that for my journal entries

201

I want to focus more on advice giving a lot of

202

my journal entries has just been focused on I don't know like topics

203

i'm giving advice on like of course like everything at the end connects to myself

204

but i think with my healing diaries it's going to be more on some more sensitive topics

205

that i'm still healing from

206

and that's not to say like my topics on journal entries are not something

207

i'm healing from i think

208

it's depending on how i talk about it i think the

209

driving differentiation between the two is also myself the line is a little bit blurred

210

but i think what i'm gonna be the one making

211

that distinction maybe there'll be a stronger differentiation as time goes on but So as of right now,

212

this is the differentiation that I want to make.

213

But yeah, I feel like a lot of topics I touched on today, it's a lot of things I don't usually talk about.

214

And I would also hope you guys would respect me on not making assumptions on certain things I talked about.

215

Yeah, because these are more sensitive topics to me, and I hope you guys would be respectful of that as well

216

and I hope you guys enjoyed this first episode of the healing diaries

217

and I will see you guys all next week I hope

218

you guys are having a lovely week lovely morning lovely afternoon or night yeah I'll see you guys soon you

什麼是跟讀法？

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
