I put the journal day one day ahead. It's not common to edit this website during my worktime. However, my mind has been a mess since last week. Make it short, I have little motivation to work and I hate these people surronding me, they are too noisy. All I want to do is to tell them to leave me alone and turn their voice down. I'm listening to RM's new album 'Right Place, Wrong Person'. To be fair, I didn't like this album when I first listened to it. All songs (except LOST) are in a different style from his earlier pieces which I'd describe as R&B hippop. It's abstract, upfront, and violent. But aftering watching his album impression vedio with Jiminn, I then realised this album was exactly what he really was and really liked. I also learned the story behind and what he went through in the past two years. Looking back, what a turning point it was for them and me myself. I used to think they (BTS) are no more that bunch of passionate stupids I love, and I'm not that stay-gold person anymore. I didn't understand until this solo album that we are just too struggle in this changing world. Sometimes I feel like I'm just pushed forward by time. All efforts I make can only slow down the drowning, but cannot stop it. I'll give up and die out one day. 

Now it's Heaven playing in my earbuds. Am I a wrong person here, or here is a wrong place for me? For either reason, I'm not doing anything relavent right here in this office. Luckily, I still have faith in myself that I have enough resilience to recover after this short anxious moment. Thanks to Namjun and this album, I was somehow shout out silently my anger and unsatisfication. 

I wish me a great day.

Tue.
