Goings and Happenings

Its about that time of the year. Finals, plans for the summer, presentations and projects…you get the gist.

Well, there are a lot of things that I want to say but I either forget or do not have the time at this very moment.

I have been listening to my music collection (yay for Smart DJ) and honestly, the songs that I favourite seem to have excellent lyrics. By excellent I mean they are practical, realistic and thoughtful…or maybe thought-provoking?

I’ve realized that my patience, a characteristic that I rely on heavily, has not a little, but a lot of room and need for improvement. College wise, I wish I could be doing better, but socially I am becoming more active. Naturally, using the same strengths that I have employed in the past: creation, coordination, communication, management, leadership.

I’ve learned how to swim and gotten better at it. I learned backstrokes too. My workout sessions sorta died the last two weeks with the number of meetings and the amount of homework I’ve had to focus on. However, there is light at the end of the tunnel and its entrance says “Healthy.”

Notice where I put the “.” (period) above? I’m a bit of a grammar-nazi, haha.

Fogo de Chao was an experience, of course I didn’t eat any of the meat, most of it was “Halal” per-se (permissible to eat, like beef) but it was not “zabiha,” which means the animals were not slaughtered or processed according to Islamic regulations, which put the animal’s peace of mind and painless experience first and foremost. Think about it, if an animal feels pain while being slaughtered or if it takes a while to die or the blood doesn’t come out properly, Muslims are supposed to refrain from eating it. I went for the vegetarian option (i.e. salad bar) but it was still an experience, seeing a glimpse of first-class service.

Well, that’s all for now, more to come later.

Peace.
