I really shouldn't be doing this. I should be researching on err, earthquakes and the UN disaster relief schemes.
Just finished GP. But I really really missed typing and updating my blog. There is something special about all this to me, I can't put a finger to it, but oh well, it'special.For once on my blog, I shall NOT talk about God. I suddenly feel like coming back down to earth from all these theories for a while and look at myself.
I can't believe I am in love. I am still not convinced I am actually. But freaks. I don't think the guy likes me. And well, my friends are bewildered at my strange likings for biology and history.I was for a while until I realize what exactly it was that got me hooked. It's the study of systems, the understanding of the world around me and in me. I really like knowing what is going on. Just take chem and bio for that matter, chem fails to interest me as much as bio because chem is just facts facts and facts, it is only fun when you know how it links up. Just take proteins for that matter, when we learn about proteins in biology, we learn where they occur in the body. So fun! But in chem, we learn about all the linkages etc and I am like, who cares? Maybe I would have been more interested if you had told me like it links up like that and thus has thus property and thus able to functions like that. I am just a bio freak I know. Well, I don't take H3 Biology for nothing! The beauty of biology lies in the fact how processes link together. We learn about respiration, but biologist don't learn things as a solo, we link them together, how the sugars form can be used in bodily processes. The more you study, the more the picture seems clearer to you. It's like a journey of discovery, amazing journey. And the best part is, as you ink everything up, whatever you do seems to make sense. Why do we sneeze, why do we itch, why do we recover from sickness, all these just fascinate me like never before.
And there's history. It's torturous sometimes to read through all the articles, but it is so fascinating again why the world is like that now. As the news blabbers away about various events, it's just so good to understand the motivations and the history behind all these, it really helps me appreciate things around me. It makes me appreciate GP, current affairs. I really love how events link up to one another and how everything has a context.
My friend used to say how it's really hard to discover about yourself, but by chance, I think i found something new about myself today. An in bulid curiousity to make sense of things around me and putting things in context. I don't care about waves and electricity or chemical bonding for that matter. I like things that I can see and feel and things that allow me to link up. Facts are pointless, really. It's how it's applied that matters. I think I will keep that in mind when I choose my uni course. Biology and International Affairs are still appealing to me. But I am not all interested in Medicine or Law . I am just strange. But I prefer to follow my heart. I mean honestly, you can earn all the money in the world and then what? You are spirtually empty, you are chasing all the stuff that is uneternal, that doesn't bring you joy.
Leaving you guys with something that was shown on REW --> What is life? (Ha. Sounds like a Biology Question no?)
i am turning more girly recently. they used to say love changes a person. i hope i am not in love.
P.S: I think I am doing it in JH style =) I am sure she doesn't mind
