life..

It's definitely been awhile since I've blogged. But I guess i can afford myself a break from all that needs to be done; my to-do-list is not short too! It seems thanksgiving is a break much looked forward to -- something I'd be definitely giving thanks for. To catch up on work, to get fit, to move forward in achieving my little goals that will improve life at Stanford, and, maybe, just a little recreation (we could all do with some).

I just planned the week out. Seems pretty packed -- reminiscent of my secondary school and junior college days. But definitely feels good to know that I'm using my time wisely. Hopefully its adequately paced though. I resolve to only go out once this week so that I can focus on getting ahead of work instead of merely keeping up.

Things seem to be falling into a comfortable cadence. I feel the push, but not the shove. Which is good in all respects. I just need to remain as motivated as I was in the first few weeks of school.

Here we go.

just some thoughts.

i should be doing work, but i'm here blogging just because something came to mind.

i was pondering over how some people play the piano really well

and wished i could express myself in a similar way,

and i thought of all the effort i needed to get to that skill level.

slightly daunting, but doable.

but the next moment, i thought of the years of practice and training i've put into sports,

and how i can express myself too.

through sports.

the sheer joy i feel from playing,

the frustration when i do not perform up to expectation,

channeling my emotions into physical exertion.

oh the joy.

i shall end off with a self-made quote:

some people express themselves through music,

i express myself through sports.

some people talk about things,

i like to do things.

some people like socializing,

i like making a difference (hopefully)
