It's hard to notice, but we assume most of the time.

In mathematics, we assume x + y to be a function f.

In a lecture, the lecturer assumes that the whole class is ready and thus starts the class.

For most of us, we sometimes assume that we're right.

And for others, they sometimes assume that they're right about us.

The latter sometimes makes me feel bad.

When other people assume that you want to do this thing when you really don't, when they assume that you're ok with what they're doing, and when they assume that I already know something, it creates a weird feeling in me. Bad, maybe. Hurting, maybe also. I don't know how to describe it. But it's certainly not good. I feel like it's not fair, that they are trying to either control you or exclude you. I know some people agree with me, for they might have experienced similar things before. But if you don't agree with me, let me tell you something. Imagine someone assuming that you're going with him to the mall, as in he's telling you things like what you should buy, where you should eat and stuff like that, when actually you're just planning to stay in your house and catch some sleep. Or someone who thinks you already know he has a new house, where he's telling you about the kitchen, the living room, the bedroom, blablabla. It makes you think he's talking about his dream house, or perhaps his friend's house. And you just know 1 week later that he was talking about his new house. You imagine how pathetic you feel? (That's it. Feeling pathetic) It's just weird. I'm not saying that I've experienced these things. But things similar to those happened to me recently. And I feel really crappy right now, although I'm trying to hide some of it. I don't want to ruin other people's time. But I just can't help it. Sometimes I need to vent out all the feelings deep inside. It's hard to keep them long. I might die early of heart failure. Hehe..

All of us tend to assume. That includes me. We're not perfect; I know that. But why don't you try to reach out to someone rather than just assume. Why don't you just talk to him and ask him. It's not hard to ask. Also, share about what you've been up to recently. Don't assume that someone already knows about what you've been doing, or that he won't care about it. He's a friend, and I'm sure he'll listen. That's what friends are for right? Well if you don't consider that someone a friend, then better tell him that.

I guess I'll have to end it here. I'm still doing this "compulsory" tutorial and I have to finish it soon.

Here's a good quote many of you should think about.

"Never assume, for it makes an ASS out of U and ME"
