Dark skies

Remembered back when 

my worry was then

of rainy days and cloudy skies.

but now as books and I are partners

I rely on those skies of darkness

to release me of my sorrows ending with demise.

Today has been a cold, horrible day in Dunedin. I can hear the pitter-patter of raindrops on my window sill and smell the familiar scent of rain, but sadly enough I haven't caught glimpse of the dark skies thorugh my window. The stress of exams is really taking its toll. Coffee infused. Loss of appetite. Anhedonia. Everyone else seems to be working hard and yet in the past few hours of studying, I felt I've learnt nothing. Urgh, I hate ersatz learning. My mind sort of wondered to this blog, blog SOMETHING to fill the void in my heart. Glad to say that the short poem I wrote gave me a satisfied feeling. Felt that I've done something outside medicine for the first time this week. With this I celebrated with 6 hours of youtube. fuck.

Also I find poetry fascinating. I've just added to my post-exam to-do-list to revive this hobby. I used to be good at poetry slams in secondary school, what happened since then?! Walked past a couple poetry books in the library today and I nearly squealed (in a masculine way) lol glad I'm staying in Dunedin.

Tomorrow I start afresh. Forget the past, focus on the future.
