All about February

Can I dive? Off the ravine into the narrow ribbon of glistening water. Because it is what I feel like doing now. I am so restless. I think I have this overflowing reservoir of energy and I am too jumpy to settle down and do my math. Am I developing symptoms of hyperactivity? Please... please spare me.
This month, I have been mistaken as a Malay four times which is averagely once a week by 2 taxi drivers, a KTM worker and a German. I guess my face is written with "identity crisis" all over. Is it?
Well, my life is full of yearnings and desires lately. My psycho self keep screaming "I want! I want!", looks like my third eye is opened to neurotic responses particularly stimulated by skates and smoothie.
Well, talking about the only sport that I'm doing, I've been falling with a crescendo in frequency. It's not that bad..which is why I feel a bit ambivalent about. I don't mind the blue-black patches on my knees or the consequential embarrassment when there's a resultant torque about me(actually rather thrilled with the entire experience-physics-in-real-life) but I want to move up the levels fast. I am still in beta(after pre-alpha and alpha), have to surpass gamma and delta to get into freestyle one. I just hope that next week I can get my snowplough stop fixed and perfect all the elements in alpha.
The most important thing is the fasting and praying period is starting and I've been thinking of the food that I want to abstain from partaking in a Daniel fast. This time it's going to be a vegan month with no meat, dairy products and anything that contain butter, cream, milk, eggs or cheese. It's hard...because I live on lactose but faith sprouts determination. Anyway the focus is not how I survive with my own will but how God carries me through. I'm looking forward to this exciting experience. Good things are waiting.
