It hurts to sit down because my muscles are aching everywhereeeee. But futsal is worth the temporary pain- after all, pain is what tells you you're alive.
SOMEDAY - ROB THOMAS
You can go
You can start all over again
You can try to find a way to make another day go by
You can hide
Hold all your feelings inside
You can try to carry on when all you want to do is cry
[Chorus:]
And maybe someday
We'll figure all this out
Try to put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to make things better now and
Maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow
Someday
Now wait
And try to find another mistake
If you throw it all away then maybe you can change your mind
You can run, oh
And when everything is over and done
You can shine a little light on everything around you
Man it's good to be someone
[Chorus]
And I don't want to wait
I just want to know
I just want to hear you tell me so
Give it to me straight
Tell it to me slow
Cause maybe someday
We'll figure all this out
We'll put an end to all our doubt
Try to find a way to just feel better now and
Maybe someday we'll live our lives out loud
We'll be better off somehow
Someday
[x2]
Cause sometimes we don't really notice
Just how good it can get
So maybe we should start all over
Start all over again

Anyway, we finished 4th amongst teams that were bigger, stronger and uh, much older than us (think 30-40 years older), which is pretty good, considering we haven't trained for months already. K super tired and my mind's not thinking straight any more.

I think, after not blogging for a long time, I ought to get back to at least writing something, simply because I have too much to say and not much place to say it. Besides, I get to practice writing in complete, grammatical sentences, which can do no harm for my barely-above-average GP grades. More importantly, I realised quite a lot of random things pop up in my head that seem to make a lot of sense and I feel somewhat strongly that I ought to write it down.
The photo above, Skyfire II, was taken under pretty amusing circumstances. I was half asleep and I Sarah, DJ and Geoffrey people smsed me telling me to go take photos of the sunset. And after finally relenting, I finally got up, look out the window and saw the purple, the blue, the yellow, grabbed my camera, tripod and ran out of the house to the other end of my block. I'm not sure what I was thinking, but thankfully the photo turned out fine, because that was one of the most spectacular sunsets in ages.
Anyway (and unrelated to the photo), I was thinking- based on my "life experiences" or whatever other phrase you want to call it, I realise two things. Firstly: you can think anything you want in the world and nobody'll stop you (unless you live in North Korea...) Secondly: It's insanely hard to constantly think of good things when there is so much negativity that's much more evident.
There's this quote on my phone desktop that I use in a seemingly futile attempt to remind myself to view things and people in a positive light. It's worded very simply, but the message is far from easy. Fix your thoughts on what is true and good and right. Think about things that are pure and lovely, and dwell on the fine, good things in others.
