Its a lovely Saturday morning and here I am, cooped up inside this stuffy library. Ok, it isn’t stuffy, and I’m completely misusing this computer since its supposed to be for research but I might as well. I need to let loose a little before returning to my books.
I returned home last night, going through my week to see what I’ve done with it, and realised that I’ve actually spent it well. In fact, this week alone felt much more fulfilling than the whole of last semester. Monday night-BRC meeting, Tuesday night-Mock Trial auditions and Millef meeting, Wednesday night-Srebrenica Talk and Millef work, Thursday night-Mock Trial Auditions (Round 2) and more Millef work. Last night was perhaps the only night I was indoors. Wow. I’ve actually found ways to spend my time other than sleeping and lazing about. Lets see if I’m able to keep this up, though I highly doubt it since everytime I start skipping, I’m always one to trip and fall. But that’s no reason to not be optimistic.
I’ve made a decision…or perhaps it was more of a realisation. I started out joining extra co-curricular activities on a selfish reason, which was solely to start collecting certificates of recognition. Although it may be true that no one would participate if there was nothing in it for them, I digress. After going through the auditions, I realise that if a person wants to participate for the recognition and experience alone, without having any particular passion for the event participated in, then what exactly is the point of it? There are none. You join because you want to, because you have the interest for it. I hope I’ll learn to conduct my life more based on that concept.
A short note. I made the auditions. I’m in. Looks like I’ve unwittingly made another commitment. What have I done?
Enough said here.
