Today, we had an amusing conversation. When you try to hold a normal conversation without saying any words that contain the letter “e”, it tends to be quite hilarious. I admit I am not the best at such word play, but it didn't hurt to try, and it was fun, and not to mention torturous too. Okay so it hurt somewhat.
I've been feeling melancholic lately, and what has trigged this melancholy? As obvious as it may sound, someone mentioned earlier this year that this will be the last year of any one of us being an ACS student. After this, we'll part ways, go to the various universities of our choice, spread our wings and travel to countries far and wide, and life goes on. This year will be a special year; it will be the year of some firsts, and of many lasts. How does one strike a balance between reminiscing the past, surviving the present and thinking about the future?
It seems to be a season of change, and I have in the past few weeks seen one person trying to change drastically, and another four trying to change certain major aspects of their life. What caused this change in each of them – this I would never fully understand. It's probably a multitude of factors, and this being the final year of IB should be one major contributing factor in all of the cases. Another factor would be the actions, words, writings and feelings of the people around them. Do you know that you affect the people around you more than you realize? It could be a word, a phrase, an action – the little things in life that you do, that can cause the greatest change in someone else's life.
Living life by the minute
Watching each minute of life pass by
Enjoying the funny moments
Relishing the sad moments
The contrast
Makes the former so much better
