My Life and Me (aka describe your day using one word and one colour)

Semester 2 Day 16

2010-08-12T03:23:00.002+10:00

Word of the day : Numb

Color of the day : dull grey

The wind battering my window is nothing compared to the turmoil raging in my head. Why do we, time and time again, take so many things for granted? What needs to be done to make us appreciate the things before us? How many times must the unexpected strike before we realize the error of our ways? Is it even possible we will draw the line between empty promises and purposeful action? Is there an end in sight? Grey! For the numbness surrounding me, for the blankness in my mind... for the past, for the trips down memory lane, for the fog, for the forgetfulness, for the regret... for the hollowness. Never ending night, faithful companion of the morose.

You give and take away... You alone hold our past, present and future in your hands... To you we commit our lives. Amen.

Blow, wind, blow - sweep away my sorrow and guilt, scatter it throughout all the earth... until the day comes when you are summoned forth once more...

Semester 2 Day 15

2010-08-10T00:51:00.002+10:00

Word of the day : What?

Colour of the day : Dark Red

Comments : What? Why? What? Meh. Updates, so many things to do, so little time. What a day. What an end to it, at least. Never mind that. Dark red for the colour of blood through veins, dark red for... confusion? Nothing much, I guess...

Semester 2 Day 10

2010-08-04T22:56:00.002+10:00

Word of the day : wow

Colour of the day : shocking pink

Comments : Time indeed flies. I must make it a point to update this everyday, it seems. Workm work and more work. Cooked up one of my best (if not THE best) tasting dish in my life today. Deep Fried Pork Belly chops with sprinkled spring onions and Life Chilli (with Ginger and Garlic) Sauce!!! Terrific meal. I'll definitely be cooking this really soon. Also bought an expensive textbook today - had to get it because of the CD coming along with it - need that for assignments. Oh well... Pink? That's the colour of my mind right now... fluffy never seemed so good... Maybe I just need more sleep :D

Semester 2 Day 4

2010-07-30T01:27:00.002+10:00

Word of the day : Weight

Colour of the day : dull brown

Comments : Had a meeting today, probably the highlight of my entire 5 hours total spent in University - Macroeconomics might prove to be even more boring than I thought it would... Busy, busy, busy - preparing for the IESS welcome lunch next week, looks like another trip down to the city tomorrow. Brown is for the beanbag I adore, for my table, for the colour of the earth seemingly weighing down my back. Lifted quite a bit of that after finishing up the spreadsheets. Good stuff. And good night.

Semester 2 Day 3

2010-07-29T13:10:00.002+10:00

Word of the day : Forgotten

Colour of the day : dull gray

Comments : Didn't remember to do this; still not a routine I'm familiar with. Oh well, here it goes anyways. Gray for the gloom in the sky, gray for my printer, and gray... for the blankness in my mind.

Semester 2 Day 2

2010-07-28T00:09:00.002+10:00

Word of the day : Anticipation

Colour of the day : Yellow

Comments : Rather dull day in terms of lectures - pretty straightforward, pat on the back for managing to stay awake throughout three classes back-to-back. Climbing two stories up to Rivett Theatre is proving to be a workout, guess I need to work out more. Looking forward to tomorrow - ESD promises to be another laugh (hopefully). Yellow is the color of the wonderful piece of cake I'm having now; the colour of the lamp on my desk; the colour of bananas.

Semester 2 Day 1

2010-07-27T00:36:00.003+10:00

Word of the day : Light

Colour of the day : Faintest of blue

Comments : First day of the new semester - a new start, new expectations, new set of goals, but the same old me (ignore the slight difference in weight and the rather noticeably shorter haircut) What will come, will come. What should I be feeling? Light-hearted after the first lecture (a good laugh is always priceless) and managed to keep that going for awhile. Blue for the calm skies today, blue for the bubbly nature of the stream, blue for the cup I'm drinking from right now, blue for you.
