I am sorry I let my gratitude sleep when perils have past. Thank you for walking through all difficulties alongside me. Your treasures, I am now aware of.

Impermanence

The fact is, you don't know what you want in life. You traverse a never-ending path, uncertain of your future, constantly praying you find your pot of gold. You rejoice when you do, you sulk when you don't. But these feelings do not last. In fact, nothing does.

You regret making certain decisions in life, but you move on and live with the fact that you have. And it is then that you appreciate impermanence because you know this torment is transient and in these situations, you convince yourself that it is. Equipped with this, you tread on, aware that at any coordinate of your causeway, every door is open for change. The only question that remains is, do you dare walk through it? To the question of your life, you are the answer, and to the problems, you are the solution.

I digress. Anyway, CARIF has been great thus far: mind-numbing work, but lovely people!

Hello, Again!

My first post since I've been at the UK. I'm almost done with my first year. Hmmm..have lost all ability of creative writing (if I had any to begin with). Medicine kills brain cells. It's so glaringly obvious-I can't write more than 5 sentences.

Almost done with exams! Woohoo-let's hope I don't need to re-sit for any 2nd MB papers *prays hard* Can't wait for Iceland! When I'm officially done with first year, and when I have nothing better to do with my life spending one month at Perth (in solitude), I shall write up on all that has happened the past academic year.
