Go out and Live your Life//
Heyyyy guysss,
Ali B this post is for you, so GO TO SMA ON FRIDAYS TOOOOOOOL!
Haiz, the things i do for you.
Anyway! This week's been fairly interesting hey, and very....relaxed haha; all our lecturers decided to break and talk crap during lectures instead of actually giving us our normal load of work. The only crap thing is that on Monday we had 2 calc tests that (i swear) came straight out of hell; and if nobody passes them? .....well i wont be surprised at all XD
It feels so.....relaxing, i dont know why hey; for some reason i'm just so....relaxed. Guess it's because the easter break and stuff is around the corner; and i'm fully soooooo not 'studying' on the break. (i say that but i probably will...) It's funny how lecturers decide to load you up with enough readings to last you a year....just before a (one week) study break!
I think that there's so much more to the band Relient K (if you haven't heard of them, go listen, now.) than meets the eye (in terms of lyrics). One song in particular catches my attention; apathetic way to be, and also overthinking. Haha, it's really weird if you listen to all the metaphors they give (keeping in mind they're pretty much a christian band).
"Learn how to Live Your Life" Is a sentence that they give at the end of one of their songs. I like it; for some reason that sentence, that mere phrase really appeals to me. I'm not gonna do a literature analysis of that sentence on the spot; but like just the small things; it's so carnal, yet so....true? at the same time. And it's quite an encouraging phrase too (pending on how you see it).
Live Your Life. i like it, somehow it just hits home; could be experiences talking there.
Wahhh camp this week! Incidentally the theme being "living the life" or something close to that. I'm actually really looking forward to it hey. Been a while since i've gotten out there and like yea let loose sorta thing; and i'm looking forward to meeting lots of new people tooo!! and spending good time with those i knew from a long time ago but haven't seen in ......well just too long.
Yea..it's funny how it works hey. I like it how i know that Somebody's always watching over me. Somehow over the past few days that's been growing on me, and i really like the feeling. Security? yea, something along those lines.
A picture we took when i went out with my friends to eat (fancily) at fremantle! Ok check this, no, we do not take pictures with random bums we find around the harbour. That dude (the ang mo) standing next to the bronze statue......get this......
IS the bronze statue!!! HEs the actual guy it's modelled after! His family is a famous fishing family from WA somewhere, i dont know but like yea; next time you eat sashimi i quote from sophia,
"thank the bronze statue man."
Figures doesn't it. lol just before that guy came we were all making fun of the statue, only after we sorta figured that if the guy saw us he'd be a bit......lol anyway!
Lol we were into the whole habit of cam-whoring. Allow me to introduce some of my friends (yes i chose this picture with purposeful intent XD) From left to right, Sophia (SHES KOREAN AND FLUENT!!!), valerie (she's missing half her face), James (no comment - no he's not doing anything to my head..), Ian (he can unlock a car with a coat hanger. enough said.)
Needless to say you've probably figured i have some interesting friends! haha xD but then again, everybody's interesting. Just a matter of finding that person inside of them.
But yea, you know; the bible always talks about not worrying and stuff like that. And sometimes it makes me wonder if it's wrong- to worry about somebody? I mean after all it makes sense, how does worrying make anything better for you? weird though; can you actually stop? I know for some people i just cant help but worry, (in a healthy way...if that makes sense..)
Yea but you know, the thing that always helps me is that you know they're being looked after. Make that Looked After. I guess sometimes you have to release- it takes a while but i guess theres a bit to realising that worrying is different from concern, and care. Even though you dont worry about somebody, you can still really be concerned, and really really care for them.
Lol, i'm such a slow learner.
But to be honest, i guess i know myself; and i'll always be worried about at least one person, but that's ok, i can cope with that. But i guess the one thing i've learnt, and the thing i find myself telling my friends over the past week especially is not to tunnel your vision onto your problem, but to expand and see that not everything is focused around your problem.
For christians? friend once very aptly put it, magnify your God, not your problems.
Hahah i should type about friends.
But God knows how many more pages that would add.
Fin~
Do what will make you happy
Do what you feel is right
Only but one thing matters
Learn how to live your life.
