Interesting things I have found while researching/taking web breaks over the past few days:
  • Everyone must visit the Present&Correct blog - it's so full of awesome (also, they're based in London!)
  • Carla Bruni wore flats around Sarkozy?
  • In the aftermath of the Chelsea-Bayern showdown...here's Cameron cheering for Chelsea, and other things
On a more introspective note, points for pondering:
  • Stop talking to yourself. Talk to God.
  • Also, for someone who is a backseat driver, I must be a pretty bad driver anyway.
  • And I suppose this is God's way of saying, "Now let me handle this."
This has to be the least structured post I have ever written...

There are many things about being a Christian that are difficult, but I am this close to concluding that the most difficult thing about it is actually believing that this God really cares about you, sometimes more than you could care about yourself. Every relapse proves to me that I can never comprehend it, and that this faith has so much more to go through before it is properly called a strong unwavering faith.

And so do guilt-trips, which happen just as often.

Sigh.

(...this is what happens when half of your brain is filled with names of people you don't actually know.)

Got a verse today that seemed to put things back into perspective. This isn't my race to run, neither is it my war to fight. And no glory that may come will be mine. This is the truth that sets me free.

Back in secondary school a particular person kept harping on the fact that I should have taken a particular subject as a full unit rather than a half-unit, despite the recurrent observation that I wasn't doing very well in it. I don't understand what these people see.

Also because I have this terrible tendency to like a particular subject at one point of time and do poorly at it. Every single time.

People are strange, revision is tough, I am tired. I don't have much more to say.
