Endless choices!

Lately, I’ve been really into taking pictures of the sky. Sorry for the Ambush!

You may have read this post and would know that this year I’m taking Duke of Ed . And the Duke of Ed is not just about tramping which I wrote about my experience, but it also includes Learning a New Skill, Physical Recreation and Service. So I have to decide on a new skill soon so I can get started. I checked out their website and found a MASSIVE list of options and under each option are specific requirements to be met. I am still contemplating on which new skill I should learn because of all the choices. Here is my list of possibilities so far:

• Computer Games –this is awesome! You have to investigate different games and consoles!!
• Cookery
• Drawing
• Donkey (handling etc.)
• Magazine Production
• Paper craft
• Still Photography
• Zoology
• Writing
• Confectioner’s Decoration (Cake decorating)
• Conjuring and Magic

There are way more options that I would like to do, but I think this is my short-list. I have no idea how I am going to choose only one!

Update: Had a netball game this morning. You know how they say, it doesn’t matter if you win or lose-just try your best. But you know what? There’s a certain kind of satisfaction in winning

Disguise

Note: Yesterday, an ice-cream truck (Whippy) came round the neighbourhood after school with that cool tune (all ice cream trucks have) playing through the street! I was so excited because I hadn’t heard one in yonks and it reminded me of my not so-long ago childhood where the ice-cream truck frequented the streets. Unfortunately, I didn’t get out of the house quick enough to catch up with it and get me an ice cream! -Warning! Notebook Series entry-(Descriptive!)

Watch me as I sink, I am falling through a deep void of shadows and unthinkables. Show me your confidence, the aspirations you once dreamed of, those budding ideas that signified you. Show me the laughter that used to reign over the land, hysterical and comical. The energy that was everlasting- now drained to the last trickle. A heart filled with excitement and eagerness for every day born. How could I plunge and dive to such a point?, I couldn’t even recall my own name.

Today I can cause those smile lines to appear on my anxiety-free face once again. I can jump as high as the trees can reach the stars and I can chatter away continuously to any poor soul who stumbled by me. My heart is now free of all impurities, beating against the joys of life and as I dream, I can dream of the mysteries of tomorrow, the adventures of the next week, month and year. And how did I discover myself again, out of the sink hole I had once tripped into?

I stood up, followed the road signs and climbed out.

The road signs, they are always there and almost always are wearing a clever disguise.
