I woke up today feeling more energised than I have been for months. I was thinking about this blog actually, and I realised just how superficial it was. Yes it details some of what I do, but it's very objective. Granted, I didn't want it to turn into something that only details how I feel about any given situation, but I think that I'll get more out of it if I manage to reach a decent mid-ground.
Boundless energy is at its best, obviously, when you do something productive with it. so I went for a run today. I managed to go for about a mile (four times 'round the track we have next to Halls) before deciding to walk another one and cool down. Hopefully this time next year I'll be able to run a couple of miles with no ill effects, like I used to be able to. We shall see. -Fingers crossed-
For some reason I've been thinking about honesty these past couple of days. What it is exactly, and when it's appropriate to be honest, and when it isn't. I guess people are dishonest when they want to preserve or protect something or someone, but as an example, if someone were to ask you a direct question and you lied...which is worse? Personally, I'd rather be told the truth and be a little miffed at someone than be lied to, but I know that I'm not exactly representative of today's youth, as it were. Just odd thoughts I've been having, I guess. I think I'm the type of person who'd just not say anything rather than injure someone's ego or whatnot, but if I'm asked something directly...-Shrugs- I won't lie. If the said person didn't want a truthful answer they wouldn't ask, right?
I've about an hour before I go out to 'Squids' (Student Quids, a pound per drink at the RedFern). I'm not particularly a going-out person by all accounts...but I told my friends I'd make an effort this term, and there's always places to sit there, as well as the fact hat it closes at midnight. What can I say, it's a compromise. That's what life and friendship is all about, right? A bit of give and take?
