Well, this is the third day I'm living in my new house. This post has to be quick because i have Speech Day at Victoria School later. It's so ironical that someone who has apparently received the "VAC Academic Excellence Awards" is at the 6.5th percentile for econs. And 27.7 for Math. Well, who's that? Yours truly... duh.
I actually meant to type something sentimental and emo about leaving my old house for the new one. However, two nights of inadvertently sleeping by accident due to tiredness (4am and 2+am respectively) has forced this back to now. Also, I found that I don't actually miss my old house that much. I think that the fact that i take only about 4 mins to jog back from house to house is a big factor. The proximity is simply too close for me to feel anything. And the place is still intact, at least for now. And I spent the first night being ferried from old to new house and back again. Something that i'm sure most people who move don't experience.
In short, I'm scrapping the farewell post... and it's also because i'm lazy. If you hadn't realised that by now.
But I have to say that i WILL miss the place. The greenery, so much like an unconventional condo, etc... I love the place. It taught me about biology, about nature, and so much else. It is the basis for all happenings in my life up till now.
So, about the new house. I spent Thursday night (first night) unpacking, and basically my room feels like a room now, not devoid and empty. Friday night was spent taking out stuff form my schoolbag and then sleeping. Again, by accident.. There's so much to do now that i can never finish it by Monday. Help.
Now, I'm not a religous person. GP says that you can have morality without religion, however... and I am self-professed a free thinker- who believes in everything. This may sound contradictory, but it simply means that i an neutral to all religions, and do what i see fit. I think religion is a kind of guideline for those who don't have a strong sense of direction to follow. There is a need to heed the advice of one who is more wise than you, more powerful- be they real or imaginary. Religion is a means to explain the world around us, just like science... okay, that's going a little oft tangent.
Basically, this is a prelude to what i did on Thursday after moving house. I kneeled in a Japanese-like fashion and closed my eyes and put my hands together, and prayed to whoever who would listen. (Sorry if anyone finds this mindly sacreligious, but this is how i do things.) Then i opened my eyes and felt slightly better.
