Finished!
luke
Well, I know you’re probably feeling neglected my poor blog… good thing you don’t have feelings!
So, where have I been? I’ve been finishing off Uni for the semester!!! IT’S ALL DONE!
Trained out at the riff (Penrith) yesterday – ’twas windy and cold ;( – but the pieces were getting faster throughout the day, quite proportionately to the rate, which is encouraging.
Anyway, I’m about to take Jesse to the movies as any good brother should – it’s his Birthday present from me
I’m sure going to miss my family, also some close friends and the rowing season – but apart from that… WHOOOO!!! I CAN’T WAIT TO GET TO CANADA!!
Peace out

Adulthood

I can’t remember who told me this:
“by the time you realise that you are an adult, you’ll be at least a dozen life-changing decisions into your adult life”
Aint that the truth!

Crash Course in Patience
luke
Here’s a quick crash course in patience:
Find something of incredible value to you, develop and understanding of its worth, then have it removed from you by means out of your control. Discover when you’ll be reunited, then wait… and keep waiting…”
It’s one of the hardest things you’ll ever have to do.
Surely after that you’d have a better understanding of patience!

Yeah...
luke
Things may be hard at times but when it comes down to it…
…I’ve got it so damn good!
The things I have coming up in my life are so worth waiting for!

So close, yet so far away
luke
I think this is just about the hardest part of waiting for something, the part where you are “so close… yet so far away” – it just sucks.
You’re constantly excited but simultaneously reminded that you’re not there…yet.
It’s the part where your mind plays tricks on you, where your thoughts can’t stay where they should, where nothing else seems to matter as much anymore, where you think you’ll suffer serious long term problems with your blood pressure for maintaining that consistent level of anticipation
I think the boys at rowing (as I see them all the time) are about to shoot me if I say “I just can’t wait to be in Canada…HURRY UP!” one more time… eek! The only thing stopping them is that I’m pulling bloody hard and they need me to race
Things will probably be more bearable once I’m finished with my Uni work, and much more bearable when I’m flying overseas because I’ll be en route
After Henley I really hope to try and enjoy Europe as much as possible considering my anticipation.
Ha…I seem to get some serious respect every time I mention all the things that I’m doing and why I’m doing them. That only makes my anticipation more intense!
Also in other news… ah, don’t worry I’ve got to clean up – just remember when I try and finish this post I was about to write about why my fist is sore from punching a poster of a good looking woman
…more on that after the break
