The year is coming to an end very soon, I really wonder where all this time has gone. I've had my fair share of the ups and downs throughout this year. But I'd rather not dwell so much upon the downs of this year. With the pitfalls that came along with this year, I've come to realise who my real friends are. There are those who make you laugh even when you're in the worst mood, those who understand just by exchanging glances or those who are there during times of turmoil. So if you guys are reading, thank you for being there. This year I learned that I can let go of things. There was a person named M, whom I have not spoken to for 5 years during our silent brawl. I've forgiven this person for a long time, though I have not found the heart to actually speak to this person. I saw M at Helen's party and I guess I no longer felt awkward in her presence. We joked around and such as though those 5 years were nothing. And I feel far more alleviated now. A while ago

just another one of those days

I feel somewhat fatigued. And I guess that is quite uncanny since I slept well over 12 hours. So turns out Friday was just another one of those regular bad days. The first indication would've been the looming grey clouds. I turn on the news at 6am and to my surprise dismay Sydney Bus was having a strike today. Okay panic. I catch the train to parra then catch the bus to the campus. I had no idea how I was going to get to the campus. I spent the next 5 minutes swearing in disbelief until my Dad woke up. Thankfully he offered to drive me to my exam. He drove like a maniac, I seriously thought I was going to throw up or something. So I made it there in one piece and just sat outside of the exam room to get some last minute studying done. I saw Sarah and Linda's lab partner (I can't recall his name, hes just an overall jerk). The test wasn't that bad, I was disappointed the bulk of the things I studied wasn't in there. I do feel very much alleviated. I can relax fo

pitfalls

My mind is like a deep ravine, there lies an intricate fine web of interlaced thoughts and musings. I can no longer see with absolute clarity. Perhaps I am bound by chains of overly excessive thoughts, but I can't help myself. I think the nerves of everything has driven me to the brink of insanity. Right now, I can't help but feel a little helpless. I'm sure tomorrow will be a better day. No, things will be better after Friday. through the fingerprints on my window- cloudless blue sky. - Paul Mena

tree, hill and wood

I was browsing for some quirky items, as you do, and came across this... I thought that was the end of habit of sleeping in. No more setting two alarm clocks or hiding my alarm clock under my bed. Then I realised they don't ship this awesome alarm clock outside of the US! The deferred micro exam is at 8:30am on Friday. I sure hope I can drag myself out of bed at 6am or my life is over. I'll probably be taking analytical micro, food safety (boring, maybe immunology instead?), and forensic chemistry. I think I need a break from the UWS parra campus, so I guess this autumn semester I'll be relocating to Hawkesbury. Serenity now. I need to get away from it all for a while. Unless of course my application to transfer is successful, I can throw away my idea of going to the Hawks campus.

Just thought I'd share a picture a friend took whilst venturing in the alleys near her house. Kudos to Brittany for sharing this, I simply adore it.

nitrous oxide

Today was another abnoxiously hot day, but that was nothing out of the ordinary. This notorious heat is something you would expect from summer in Sydney. I still distinctly recall the famously hot days back in the 90's, one particular day boasted 42 degrees. I'm thankful today was nothing like that. Cindy and I went out to buy some groceries despite the heat. I suggested we stop by at the park near our place to rest a bit. I instinctively went for the swings and Cindy also followed suit. I still remember going to this park with friends when we were in high school. It was our hang out after school. We ate there, gave each other advice, laughed and even knitted there once. I haven't really laughed freely since all the strange happenings which occured as of late. I scoffed at Cindy claiming that she could not swing higher than I could, she accepted the challenge. The simplest of things could cheer me up and the simplest things can also frighten me. Getting an injection, bl

incoherent thoughts

The more I think, the lesser I seem to know or be sure about. Well I'll probably be taking summer school, my application has been accepted. I don't really want to stop and give myself the opportunitiy to lose myself amongst my never ending thoughts. So I'm quietly awaiting the 7th to find out when my deferred exam for microbiology is. In a way I'm worried, there is a bulk of material to digest before the anticipated date for the exam. So I probably won't be updating until after my long awaited exam and perhaps even beyond that. I think I'm done drowning you all in my obviously grey monotone. So here is something for you all to ponder upon (yes, I know physics has poisoned my mind, I'm sure Newton would be pleased to see this)... They say every action has an equal and opposite reaction, and once something is set in motion, it can't help but build momentum.
