Lonliness vs Solitude

Dunked close to 4 litres of water.
In the middle of a crunchy nut binge.
Files and books strewn all over the floor.
Daffodils attempting to brighten up the room.
Clean sheets on an unmade bed beckons.

Why is it people feel so far removed from the world during the holidays? Maybe its the effect semi-vacant halls of residences have on stressed exam-panicky students. I do need some perspective thrown on me now.

Walked back late from the tube. The streetlights are down at the intersection. Its that sort of situation where mom would frown upon, but I have no choice do I? The price of independence. Takes some getting used to. Its the sort of thing one takes for granted in the all-too-safe haven of sunny s'pore.

Even then, where I am now, I'm glad about it.
The Lord has put me here for a reason.
Possibly to learn about solitude in Him despite all this apparent lonliness Romans 8:28

Disclaimer; Conforming

I did attempt at blogging once before.
Did 2 posts, realised no one was really going to bother, didn't put the effort into keeping it up, and it grew mouldy and grey. If blogs could ever grow.

A renewed attempt at reviving a once lost vision? Possibly. But don't ask me what my mission and aims are for this, I haven't quite sorted that one out.

I've got a feeling it'll start off as a sounding board, especially when one is cooped up in the hall, having had no form of human contact in days. [yeah thats me, the hermit... can anyone identify with that?] It might then morph into the place where I can spare my friends from the million things I wish to share with them on msn. And whatever it transforms itself into after that, I bear full responsibility. Though I must say, it is quite an exciting experiment. Spontaneous combustion anyone?

Before ending this disclaimer, I must add that I don't desire for this to become a replacement for true human contact. (ok so msn isn't true human contact.... but you get my drift) I will strive never to tell someone "I'm too tired to repeat myself... go read my blog". I respect all of you more than that. This is not a replacement for "finding out how she's doing without ever having to ask".


Whats posted may reflect the situations I'm in, but it'll more likely be a spot for random thoughts that pop into my head, which I might never ever find the context to tell others about. But read, and do come back to me. I would really appreciate it.

I told you, I'm finally giving in, I'm conforming.
