Comrades!

Heya! Yesterday after lectures I went to the library to study a little. After a couple of hours, I got hungry so I decided to leave the library. As I was leaving the reading room, going through the corridor outside that leads to the stairs to the main library, I met Mohammad, my coursemate. He's done a degree before in Pharmacy and he's always the one who answers questions. He's married and everything la. I haven't really spoken much to him but when I do, it's always been good conversations cuz he's knows how to joke around. So yea, I met him and we talked a bit. He asked me how I was doing and he seemed really concerned about how I was finding the course and everything. I guess he was asking because right now it's like, we're in a battle zone with all tests and the upcoming exam. Everyone is working really hard, and everyone (except those super smart ones like Yong, probably) (hahaha) is finding it really tough. Including myself. But anywho. Because he was at the library with Pouya (the London dude), I asked him about it and he said that he's trying to make Pouya study because Pouya was really distracted. That was really kind of him lo. And when we ended the conversation, he said that if I had any problems, we could always do a study group kind of thing. I don't know. That kind of touched me lo. Like he's so thoughtful and concerned about everyone. :) 

I guess, in a warzone, you become comrades even if you're not really friends. :) 

Btw. I've been finding it really tough, like I mentioned before. How I lost myself. And I sort of gave in yesterday. I put in my earphones and played some hillsongs, looked up the lyrics and just tried to find some meaning in them, tried to ask God for help. Cried a bit, and just listened and sang. Then I put everything away and started working. And I felt like my old self that, still gets distracted really easily, but that's actually capable of doing work. I don't know, maybe it was just me knowing that time is seriously seriously what I don't have and that I absolutely HAD to get a move on, or maybe it was God's grace, giving my some inner peace? Who knows. But I just hope it continues anyway. :) 

Know His power, in quietness and trust. I will be still and know You are Lord! 

When times get tough, don't forget that God is there with you, don't forget to surrender to God and pray, recognising that He has a plan and that He has not abandoned you. :)
