Old / Still young

Plantation visit 31/12/08

I need to grow up. I'm still a baby when I should be a grown, if not growing man. Let me learn, see and feel.

Personal development and experience gives one a sense of security. But sometimes one feels his rate of growth is too slow.

My outings are mostly nothing to do with having meaningless fun. I am meeting people. I want to meet people, watch what they do, know what their doing, hear what they have to say, hear their experience, getting the feel of the environment and observe. Without doing so, survival would be hard, never mind achievement.

It is much harder to do so after this. The environment in Melbourne is different. You learn different things and hear different things. What I learn here is not found anywhere else.

Learning is an eternal process.

And I know after this, I will be devoting my time and giving my full attention to something / someone else for the next few weeks. It is only fair to him/her that I do what I have to do prior to that and not let anything come into our way. Work is work, holiday is holiday, it is my principle, and that of many people, to not confuse or combine the two.

But I failed.

Maybe I'm selfish. I thought I knew what I was doing, I think I did not.

I failed miserably.

Had I been unfair to you? Would it be any different or would we feel any different if during this period I had a full-time job rather than meeting people at irregular times? Perhaps a full time job in the opinion of many would be a much more important activity than what I am doing - and they may be right. I did what I did with the understanding that both you and I are engaged in our own activities. That we may be busy with our families or acquaintances. There will be a time we will meet, and there will be a time for nothing but each other. But I do not prioritise anything above you - It may seem to be that way, but I know that's how I feel deep down. Maybe I'm careless in not letting you know/feel that.

I thought I knew what to do. I think I misunderstood. I think I do not know what I'm doing. Maybe I'm naive. Maybe I'm inexperienced. Maybe I'm just stupid. Maybe I have really been wasting my time this few days / weeks.

Maybe I really didn't learn that much after all.

Maybe I'm young and still learning. A stupid little baby boy that learns too slow - A failure.

not funny anymore

Hapa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Hapa" is a Hawaiian term used to describe a person of mixed Asian or Pacific Islander racial/ethnic heritage.[1][2][3]
[edit]Etymology

In the Hawaiian language, hapa is defined as: portion, fragment, part, fraction, installment; to be partial, less. It is a loan from the English word half. However, in Hawaiian Pidgin (the creole spoken by many Hawai'i residents), hapa has an extended meaning of "half-caste" or "of mixed descent". Mary Pukui & Samuel Ebert's Hawaiian Dictionary define hapa as: "of mixed blood, person of mixed blood as in hapa hawai'i, part Hawaiian." [See: Pukui, Mary Kawena, and Samuel H. Ebert, Hawaiian Dictionary, Revised and enlarged edition, University of Hawaii Press, Honolulu HI, 1986] The word "hapa" has moved into Hawaiian and mainland English via reborrowing.
Used without qualification, hapa is often taken to mean "part white", and is short hand for hapa haole. The term can be used in conjunction with other Hawaiian racial and ethnic descriptors to specify a particular racial or ethnic mixture. Examples of this include:
hapa haole (part Caucasian/white)
hapa kanaka (part Hawaiian)
hapa popolo (part African/black)
hapa kepani (part Japanese); the term hapanese is also encountered
hapa pilipino (part Filipino)
hapa pake (part Chinese)
hapa kolea (part Korean)
hapa kamoa (part Samoan)
hapa sepania (part Spanish)
hapa pukiki (part Portuguese)
While the terms haole and popolo are no more inherently derogatory than white or black, they are sometimes used as racial or ethnic slurs. One should be careful using these terms since many Caucasians consider the modern use of the word haole to have racist connotations when used to describe members of that group. Some island residents used the word olopop when referring to African-Americans after African-Americans became aware of the meaning of popolo in modern local slang. The original meaning of popolo refers to the small black berries of a Hawaiian plant. Mary Kawena Pukui wrote that "Because of its color, popolo has long been an uncomplimentary term."
Pukui also states that the original meaning of the word haole is "foreigner." Therefore, all non-Hawaiians are technically haole. In practical terms, however, the term is used as described here, with the specific exclusion of Portuguese. Portuguese are traditionally considered to be a separate "race" in Hawaii. [See: Pukui, Mary Kawena, and Samuel H. Ebert, Hawaiian Dictionary, Revised and enlarged edition University of Hawaii Press, Honolulu HI, 1986]
Hapa-haole also is the name of a type of Hawaiian music in which the tune and styling are typically Hawaiian, but the lyrics are in English or mostly in English. [See: Kanahele, George S., ed., Hawaiian Music and Musicians, University Press of Hawaii, Honolulu HI, 1979].
