Matters on a. Mandar's Heart

Adrenaline

Perhaps it's my 'competitive' side or it might be because it's soon to be the beginning of summer for me. I'm really pumped for my exam tomorrow (second last). I always get really nervous before an exam, no matter how much i've prepared. But it's a good nervous. I love the feeling of studying really hard for something and then acing it. It's almost like a fight, a mental battle, like a long jog on a sunny day. Where at the end of it all, it just feels good to have sweat it off.

I realized this summer that I am a very goal oriented person. I love to see the finish product (given that it's good) and at times i would go to all costs to reach that goal (i'm thinking in terms of school here). But perhaps i need to remember that most of the time, it's about the journey. It's about how i got there; about the way i respond; about Who i rely on. It's about the process because that's the part that makes you stronger.

I really miss interacting with living people. I miss the cute boy at bloorview that picks his wedgie everytime he uses his walker. I miss how he hides his face behind his hands in the first 5min. heh so cute. I miss having coffee with people. I miss human interaction. The crickets and flies are just not cutting it anymore- although the population has been crashing rapidly.
Ah. One more week and i'm going to start making some phone calls. And you better answer!

Anatomy bell ringer, get ready to be owned!
