"I think some love you can stand to let go of because it’s ultimately for the best, but other types you have to stick with until the day you die even when it’s hard.You have to think about that before you run away from wherever you are."
//Nick Burd; The Vast Fields of Ordinary
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. Until the darkness turns to light and all our hopes come to pass, give me the strength I need to hold onto your promises. One done, two more to conquer.
"You will forget your misery; you will remember it as waters that have passed away;
Life will be brighter than noonday, and darkness will become like morning. You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety."
//Job 11:16-18
The week before exams is never easy and this week was no exception. The sheer amount of backlog and stuff that needs to be read, re-read, processed and made into notes is just unbelievable. Whoever said that year three students feel more empowered when dealing with school must not have been smugging hard enough haha. So I was surprised at myself that I took the Friday off to go to a place where I needed to be, to be pleasantly surprised by the discovery that whatever I had lost sight of along the way, he still remembered, still kept in mind the struggles and the pain, still was willing to accept whatever I had to offer. He didn't love you enough, but someone, on his way, will.
Head firmly on shoulders, feet rooted unflinchingly to the ground, heart back in the place where it was always meant to be. Down on my knees where strength begins, at a place that is comparable to no other. Put together to be whole, broken to be poured out.
"And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, just as things grow in fast movies, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with that summer."

We've finished Asian History, Corporate Law and Finance. Three down, one more to go! It's funny to come out of the exam hall and moan together about how it feels like everytime we go into an exam we don't show the Prof everything we actually know and it doesn't justify the amount of time we spent mugging for the whole thing. Haha, basically nobody ever comes out of the exam hall feeling happy. Which is not true, sometimes I come out pretty happy, that is, until I start talking to other people haha.
I'm feeling kinda lazy to study for Consti, I'd rather go out and watch SHUTTER ISLAND! Ohmytian, the sheer agony of having to study! Btw, I should learn to knit. The girl's knitted sweater is quite unstoppable. and ahfafsjghkisl! I just realised that her hair looks a little green!
