pitter patter

hi everyone!

it sure has been awhile! i've just been a bit busy lately... came back from interstate on saturday night and am enjoying my first few days back at uni. today was a surprisingly good day. started with a pharmacology lecture then tutes for human rights and media politics. the school day rounded off nicely with a human rights lecture. i'm contemplating on switching out of pharmacology because i really don't think i'll like it, but then again i guess it's good to challenge yourself. i like all my other subjects so far though! :)

nothing much has been happening lately. i've been lying low. the only subject that i know people in is pharm so i spend most lectures sitting on my own. but that's okay. i learn better this way. there's still a bit of catching up to do for the first week back that i missed but only a bit. actually, it's something like 3 pharm lectures which really isn't that bad.

i caught up with some friends from st john's the other night. even though most couldn't make it, it was still nice to spend time with the ones that came. bao and i then had a rather enjoyable train ride home lip-syncing to random songs on the ipod.

with that last full stop it suddenly hit me that, for the first time in a long time, i feel pretty content with life at the moment. i guess i'm just moving on from the bitterness. or it could be from the lovely (but quite pricey, so much so that i felt really guilty after ordering) lunch i had just before at sweet source. or maybe it was the short hike back to uni through the light rain. or the fact that i'm sitting on my own writing this in the bailieu. or the fact that i might enjoy the subjects i'm doing this semester. i don't know. but i feel okay... like everything's going to be alright. :)

i came across a wonderful piece of inspiration the other day: 'Being challenged in life is inevitable. Being defeated is optional.' i thought this was so good that it's now the quote on my whiteboard at home.

random addition: i sat next to guy to smelt like maccas cheeseburgers during my rights lecture before. it was weird and strangely pleasant at the same time.


anyway, i better get some study done. i hope everyone is well! xx.
