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

Doom:

Alvan says: okay academics impt

Alvan says: All teams should arrive with at least one standard matching numbered jersey. Two sets are advisable in case of kit clash however not compulsory

andrɛw says: huh?

andrɛw says: what

Alvan says: i signed us up for espzen alr

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.
