everytime i pass by the upper quad, this is what i think,
man i'm glad to be here
i remember the second law school interview i had, and what i thought,
gosh i'd be happy to be here
what a beautiful school
today i thought,
wouldn't it be more awesome if i had all these other things i wanted (on top of being here)
sure, these are good things to want, good things to aim for, nothing wrong with having these ambitions
not having these things, sure, it sucks
but it doesn't take away from what i have
and that is pretty good
pretty
darn
good

talking to the girls today about girls,
i realise i sound a lot calmer than i am.
as in cos i do sometimes doubt myself, privately
maybe it's a masquerade, maybe i'd find it hard to be so cool if the chance came my way
maybe i'm still confused
or maybe i'm not, and maybe i'm right
maybe i do know what i want, and what i'm doing
or maybe i have faith enough not to be too bothered
the fact is
having talked it out, to both boys and girls
it looks like i'm on the right track, insofar as the right track means sitting on my hands, but
talking about love is just like quantum physics, the heisenburg uncertainty principle, predicting electron paths
the more accurately you know the position of your feelings, the less accurately you know the momentum your feelings possess
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uncertainty_principle
and to a lesser extent, the observer effect principle
observing feelings in action actually changes the manner in which the feelings manifest

wisdom...
wisdom with God's grace
might be just a matter of time.
