Fact of Life #21 - "For as to have no Desires, is to be Dead." - Thomas Hobbs, Leviathan.
----------
So I sit here and try to collect my thoughts into some sort of coherent order since the last time I posted here. To get the regular stuffs out of the way, I obviously managed to get through my second exam alive...although barely. My knee decided to play up rather a lot during the exam, which really didn't bode well. Still, I think I actually managed to pass at least.
Having now just finished my first week of clubs/societies/socials and lectures/seminars...I can safely say that I have a rather busy schedule. Regardless of this, I can already tell that I'm going to rather enjoy this term. With so much going on, it'll keep me nice and active. The only drawback is that I'm not online as much in the evenings as I would perhaps like to be. I'm not going to deny that I rather miss chatting with my online friends...and I've not posted on Caufar for what seems like an age (read: a few days). I think next week I'll be able to manage my time a little better however, since I will have properly settled into some sort of routine with a better knowledge of what sort of time I do and do not have to myself each evening.
I'm feeling positive about things, which is nice.
As per my social life, I've managed to break into at least one of the 'cliques' I'm involved with, and that's Fencing. I'm not sure whether I was just too intimidated to see that they're all nice people, or whether I had to actually make the effort I have in order to be accepted. Still, that's done now, though I do have to be careful balancing that with LUT, since the two tend to vie for my attention at the moment. (In terms of rehearsals V's training of course...not by terms of the actual people).
The black cat that we've all but adopted (and named 'Minnie' after a certain song) now has her own cat bowl. We vowed that it wouldn't come to that, but we still can't make our mind up as to whether she's a stray or not. Besides, she doesn't cause any damage or harm, so we simply let her into the house as and when she decides to meow outside of the front door.
All in all, it's been a good fortnight. Those things that haven't gone so well are now either in the past or in the process of being mended, so I certainly am not going to start complaining.
Now all I have to do is to remain as utterly enthusiastic about life as I am now.
