Old videos and sudden realisation

I've been doing lots of shit on my laptop lately. And by shit, I really mean all things that've got to do with videos. Watching, editting, uploading, and downloading. Uh huh, I'd found a way into my old Youtube and Facebook accounts to get a hold of some shit I'd uploaded in 2011.

Most of them are really cringe-worthy; even though they've long been taken down, I'm still horrified at the fact that, at one point of time those videos were up for everyone to see. I'm ashamed of the fact that at the time I made these, I was actually so proud of myself. Ugh.

Moving on. I still make videos in 2014, though I only just started, and most of them are random as heck, things which you wouldn't really give a shit about. Pretty sure in years to come, I'm gonna feel ashamed of my recent videos.

Anyway, 2011 consisted mostly classroom memories. The earlier ones were crappy, with annoying editing and my equally annoying face. And my "conclusion spot", which I'm pretty sure my best friend Siying remembers and is laughing about right now. 

It was only in May-July that I started to focus on the class more, til eventually I was labelled the 'class videographer', because it was pretty much my job to record all the stupid moments xD

I really want to upload the cheer that 4/2 2011 did because there're no other uploads of it and a lot of my old classmates had been looking for it throughout the years. But my 16-year-old self just had to edit in stupid unnecessary text throughout our performance. It is making me so angry right now, damn you sec 4 E'inz!

I really want to upload it clean, but the only completely raw footage of our cheer back then is in my old laptop, which charger I've lost, unfortunately. 

I've been laughing to myself the whole evening [and the past few days really] because of my newly found old videos. Such good memories, with the class and with the girls. Gonna make a "Best of 4/2 2011" video soon, I hope.

Anyway, I've chosen one to re-upload. I'd made this in 2010, for Art, because we had to draw illustrations, with a storyboard, and make a video with our pictures. I hadn't submitted this shit because I was Queen of Procrastination. I actually only did it after we moved on to another project and when I was told I'd failed this assignment.

Knowing me, I probably didn't even do a storyboard for this. I remember drawing 4 frames for my intended storyboard, but I didn't even have these characters haha, it was a completely different story. Ahem, anyway, getting right to it. 

I don't know, watching it now, 4 years later, I'm actually seeing a deep meaning behind it. Especially in relevance to my past relationship and my dislike on guys now, meh.




Pretty aware that I'd 'stolen his happiness' when we were together, like how that rooftop symbolised a relationship. That worm kind of represents my past, how it had gotten into him and destroyed him. 

Man... I can infer so much from this video, but it's hard to explain, because he and I are the only ones in the world who really understand how our relationship was like, I guess. 

And I feel like if I write out what I really think of it, y'all just gonna laugh at how silly I'm being. And if whoever's close to him, or even he himself, were to read it, they're just gonna give a snort of disgrace. So... All of it shall go to my diary then.
