So I fell into the same-old trap of procrastination. Life over the last few weeks, however, has been especially stressful.
For a start, the conference was amazing. I can’t begin to sum up what an experience it all was - truly life changing. We have a few more group meetings this year, so I’m looking forward to those. Isn’t is strange how we take things for granted in our lives? We assume that we have it so hard, but there are always people far worse off than us. But on the other hand, we can’t live in guilt that we are more privileged than others - that’s no way to live at all.
In terms of the whole “moving” thing, I’ve decided to go with Durban. My flat is nearly fully furnished (and is looking fierce in lime green and pink, with splashes of purple here and there), and I’m registered on campus (which wasn’t NEARLY as stressful as undergrad registration). I hope I’ve made the right decision - I still have nagging feelings about flotsam and jetsam in my life, and I’m not entirely savvy as how to eliminate such insecurities. Damn those penguins.
