Today, i watched a drama: 1 litre of tears...
It was introduced by Andy sometime ago...
The story is about a girl who had an incurable disease named Spinocerebellar Degeneration, which one's condition deteriorates with time, whereby the worse condition that one will lose his/her ability to walk, speak, write and eat. The female protagonist Aya was 15 years old when the symptoms are first discovered. After which, she keeps a diary to record her feelings and her health conditions. Aya had indeed lived her life to the fullest and its very admirable of her to have the determination and will to live. Although at times, we will see her succumbed to the feeling of despair, she would quickly recovered so that her family would not be sad. It is of course natural for one to be sad and to be pessimistic, but more importantly, we have to work hard for ourselves, family and friends!
Aya had a short but fulfilling life, what about you ?

Ever since my aunt passed away during the O'level period, it had been a heartbreaking period to me. It seems that it was just yesterday that she had cooked red eggs to ward off my bad luck and wished for my success. The O'level English essay that i have wrote was about her, a story about a hero. Before my aunt fall prey to cancer, i do not understand the seriousness of incurable diseases. Like cancer, Spinocerebellar Degeneration also deteriorates with time, the disease makes you suffer for a long time, it makes you want to end your life immediately. It is at this point of time then we will realise that to be alive is such a fortunate and happy thing. That is exactly why i aspired and yearn to be a scientist in the medical research field; to make life easier for those suffering from illnesses. It may be too far away from me, but i am willing to work towards it, to strive for it. It is probably the first thing that i have ever desired so much, the ability to help others and probably for my own selfishness...
