Today was very much an emotional roller-coaster ride for me. Angst, joy, anxiety, worry, elation, relief and even awkwardness--all unevenly diced and strewn over in the most intricately convoluted manner, like Bolognese sauce in a mess of pasta.
On hindsight, it was actually a rather meaningful day. We started off with a 5-hour block of freedom. To a certain extent, we were all imprisoned in our own cages, desperate to shy away from the class and secretly wishing for the 5 hours to pass us by quickly. Of course, that was not to be. It was difficult to break the ice at first but I guess slowly but surely, we grew to cast aside our differences and bond as a single entity. Nevertheless, I still have this judgmental and perhaps misconstrued opinion of my class--there are but a handful of us who are actually worthy of being denoted and characterized as "fun" or "outgoing" while the rest are simply cold and locked away.
But I guess I really shouldn't judge. It's become one my irritable traits to judge and influence others with my preconceived notions. To the best of my ability, I shall try to curb this presumptuous side of me :/
I was also part of Audiomob 2012 today and it was a really refreshing experience. Albeit I dropped my Sennheiser earphones and ipod nano whilst doing the sun dance, I was able to find it at the Lost and Found shortly after. My heart was literally in my mouth when there was no trace of my most prized possession in site. I wasn't even prepared to accept that fact and I was banking my entire hope on some kind soul returning it to the SAC. And someone did. I will forever be grateful to the dude with an angelic nature (:
Ups and downs, turns and rounds. Life never presents you with a straight road, only one that leads straight to doom. The winds and twists bring spice to one's life and sometimes a moment spent in complete darkness is but a trail passing through a dense forest. The towering trees cannot loom overhead forever and things will work out in time to come.
Believe.
