7-13 Mar

Hello hello people, ‘tis a pleasure indeed. This week I didn’t note down many things. It was a normal week, not plain sailing but we got through it in the end.

Most days started off horribly. Duty rather than desire kept me going- the day to day ‘grind’ isn’t too accommodating with emotion. I’ve noticed a pattern where every so often I think I can escape the mundane aspects of life only to be rudely corrected on this. I thought myself to be quite patient and understanding of the process-driven nature of things but it wasn’t until I graduated that I had to fully face this reality. For the rest of my life, I would be working. This shouldn’t have been something to dread, but it was. It still is to a large degree, but I’m working on it. What certainly helps is the knowledge that it’s not solely what I do that matters but who I do it with. This is meant to be the joy of it all- something I’m starting to see not just believe to be true.

In other news I went bowling for the third time in as many months. This was a grand mistake- it should be limited to twice-a-year activity. My bucket list is thinning by the week, only go karting remains on the agenda.

Last remark: I’m still a baby boy- I want to enjoy my life.

To another week: tsl.
