Imagination
First things first.. It is just barely 9 hours after the block test yet i am in a very relaxed mood now. I believe that the block test sap out around all of my strength, after every 3 hours paper(yes it is 3 WHOLE hours), i will start to feel very tidy and as soon as i have gotten home, i will sleep at once.
Sorry.. got carried away..
Well, i believe that imagination is one of best things GOD(applies to other religion too) has given to us. So what exactly is imagination? Basically, this is a big word. According to Dictionary.com, the meaning of imagination is the formation of a mental image of something that is neither perceived as real nor present to the senses. So what is this in simple form? It means that thinking about something that may or may not happen.
Ever since young, I have imagine things ranging from flying as free as a bird to saving the world by using supernatural powers. This imagination can be enhance if you just watch a movie or cartoon that show such an scene. The wide use of technology has now been able us to construct our imagination.
One example is that creation of the game, Final Fantasy. I will first say some basic background on their company. Basically, before the release of final fantasy, the company's financial situation was very bleak. Many had fortold that they will wind up. However, they decided to create a game to salvage their situation. By adding all their hopes, desires and imagination, they finally created an game and named it Final Fantasy. I think you should have a rough mental picture about how the title comes about now. This game is a RPG game or
Role-
Playing
Game. You have to put yourself into the shoes of the good guys and beat the evil ones in the end. This has stirred up a commotion in both the east and the west and marks the start for RGP gaming industry. See the great power of imagination? Wait, there's more..
Imagination often brings us to greater heights that we sometimes may not achieve if left alone. Imagination inspires us to push ourselves to the limit. This is because we want to do as good as we imagine ourselves to be. Do you know why i like comics and animation now? Well, to make things clearer, animation and comics is always based on values like not to give up easily and so on. Therefore, when i am watching these shows, i hope i will subconsciously apply these values in real life.
But imagination has served me a bad purpose during the course of my life now. Many teachers and friends have viewed me as an deep person who think alot. Taking today for example, my teacher even ask me if i had any problems with my life!! Haha. She said that i always have a blank look on my face during her lesson and don't look like i am thinking at all. Therefore, she feels that i have some problems and is showing some 'symptoms' in my daily life. Thanks for the concern anyway. But i have been facing this since i started schooling and have reasons to believe i had taken counseling because of this. Haha..
To everyone out there, I am
deep but rather i believe i am an imaginative person who like to be trapped in my very own world(as pointed out by kelvin). In lessons, the reasons for having a blank look on my face is because they is the way i look when i am thinking(don't believe can ask alex lim). Either that or it is that i am once again trapped in my very own mystical world .So from today onwards, i hope i never have to face such a problem again.
PS => 5 days to the Chinese New Year. Here in advance, i want to wish you people a very happy CNY and your dreams( do u know dreams came from imagination? ) come true (that will certainly be the best thing to ever happen to you)..
