Can scarcely believe a quarter of the year's already past. Just came back from a night out, a privilege that we've waited three weeks to be granted. Didn't do much though. Just hung around Lot 1 with my friends and had dinner at Ajisen. I've realised that I like ton toro ramen and green tea Ricola. Worship practice is set for the Friday after next, so I won't need to miss cell group on Saturday. If Mel's art tour gets confirmed, I'll finally be doing something cool on a weekend. I wonder who else wants to go? It should be fun, and in any case, I haven't caught up with Mel for God knows how long. I was just thinking that it's a lot easier to get through life when you learn to let things go. Not a stunning revelation, but this blog isn't supposed to be some repository of hallowed wisdom anyway. Sorry to disappoint. I used to describe myself to other people as a realist. The glass wasn't half-empty or half-full; it just was. I profess cynical and sardonic streaks, but fundamentally, all I really want is to be happy. What's more, contrary to everything my study of literature has demonstrated, I actually still believe it's possible to achieve that state. What's that phrase Anne Frank used in her diary? I believe it was "little bundle of contradictions".
