Google has this thing where they try to fill out the sentence you are typing with possible matches based on how frequent that particular search term has been searched. Its usually a fun exercise to see what they come up with so yours truly was well not bored but curious and searched for "whats to great about" and hit the i'm feeling lucky button.
Its raining now, and I like. Hitting the button took me to the amazon site for the book with the same title as the title of this post. The folks at amazon were nice to let people read a few pages from the book and it turns out to be an interesting book. I won't say much but if you are curious, take a read and lets talk. I know I'll be looking for it. After my exams :) I still haven't figured out what to do with all the books I have.

looking out for me
Its been a while. I've found out one of the most difficult thing, at least for me is staying true to yourself. Let me explain.
We're all different in our own special ways. We have certain views of life and people that to a large extent, at least in the beginning is pure and right. For example, overtime you learn that even when you are nice to someone they may not return the favour and there's a certain disappointment when that happens but does it make you change, stop being nice to people? I don't think so. One way of thinking about it is to conclude that they have a problem they have to deal with but maybe the issue is how people's behaviour or reactions affect me, or you.
In the past few years I can see the difference in my life. Everyone says you have look out for yourself but sometimes that's not the right thing to do. Its this struggle between doing what's right for you versus not being selfish. Holding back when you should give, even if its not enough, is usually not the right thing to do, especially when the heart confirms.
Father you know me, I pray that I will not hold back when you're asking me to give. Help me not to always avoid awkward situations but to trust you and have faith that you can bring something good out of my fears. Thank you.

drained
I'm tired of slow progress. Body can't take it anymore, mind can't absorb anymore.
Its study week and just like that three days have gone by. We've been fortunate to get empty classrooms to study in but so far my strategy is not working. I've not been able to cover as much as I would have hoped. So tomorrow we're going to try something different.
The room is untidy and I don't care, at least for now and i think its time we give facebook a break.
