just another day

Had loads of fun today! Erm yeah, sugar highs give you that kinda effect... like, your mind races fast and your body keeps up, or the other way round. Unfortunately, now I'm so hungry I can't remember the last time I felt this hungry. Or sick, or exhausted because of this.

Sugar. Definitely not for champions. It's a not-so-harmful dope... giving you that extra spurt of energy to go vroom! That is of course, besides the fact that everybody seemed a little off today, on the energy chart.

Devised Drama, Lifespan Pysch and Effective Interpersonal Communication was good, except the last seemed like a gossip session, with the lecturer trying to be productive.

Honestly, it's only been more recently that I've noticed that huge potential in this course. I like everything that I'm taught, and yeah its empowering. Ooh, and go Theatre!

So the other highlight of the day was meeting up with Mythili and Sharon. I guess I don't have to explain how much I've missed them and all. Gossiping, bitching (girls bitch, guys feedback), swooning, complaining, discussing, unglam pics, we did em' all.


Aites, enough about my life in motion (which I should really talk more about). We all have something that we want to achieve.

If you don't know this already, this is a conversation I had.

Them: Can you play the cello? Or the violin? Or the piano? Or any musical instrument?

Me: Nope. Haven't got a musical bone in my body (bet you've heard this before so many times)

Them: Can you draw?

Me: Lousy copies, yes. They're still impressions okay!

Them: Can you fight?

Me: As in?

Them: Martial arts... Muay Thai! *squealing*

Me: ... Yeah I can lose.

Them: Dance?

Me: Am the most inflexible person I know. I just can't register physical moves and coordinate.


Yup, I've made myself come off as a complete loser.

Kinda makes me feel that their compliment before was kinda wasted on me.

Of course, then again, I can act, read (okay fine, I like to. Everyone's literate, ya?), sing (to a pathetic extent, but it's better than being tone deaf), and write. I like languages. Sadly, that's about all there is now to me.

I'm not so sure about teaching. Haven't done enough of it. One primary school kid threatens to make me throw in the towel.

Sucks.

Erm yeah, that's under supposedly... special talents. So, let's not count things like being charismatic, leadership etc. That is, until I get a clearer definition. More of, something you can do. A phenotype expressed... Genotype.

It is a time for us to expand that little circle of identity. There is so much in one's genes that Science can never fully decode and now I'm motivated to search within for potential or interests that has eluded me thus far.

Ah, drama. My first love. It is not just a trophy you can win, it is a battle that wages on now and forever as long as oppresion is in existence... but that's for another story.

I want to be better at this, in that. I can never write well enough. Maybe I won't ever. My blogging style has changed so dramatically, it reminds me of Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development (HA! I GOT IT RIGHT!). Yeah, you know me. When I tell you something I know, you know it gives me great pleasure to enlighten... or confuse. Brand me mischievous or enthusiastic, bubbly (not perky). Okay so anyway, there is a time when toddlers go through trial-and-error learning (if you believe so) before they can achieve control by being able to solve problems like holding a milk bottle.

Same goes. Sensorimotor stage, tis' they call it. Sometimes, I write as if I speak, and I speak as if I write. At other occasions, writing takes a turn for prose or poetic lines... or overdressed content. Awkward, overdramatic, an insightful duh. It's a process where you explore the environment and your reflexes, then build upon that. Shit happens, but the world makes more sense to you when you can navigate better, doesn't it?

A conflict for every stage. We are at the forefront.
