My first midterm is Thursday. It's only a short two weeks into school and work is already demanding devotion from me; talk about a one-sided relationship. That, together with freezing my ass off in the cold chasing after the kids at daycare, has led me to the conclusion that this semester, if anything, will be a much needed one to finish.
A recent argument with a close friend makes me wonder if it is really possible to successfully separate character from execution. Can business really be devoid of personal? Can a man be more than his politics? I think the world has made it okay to criticize a man, not only for his policy, but for his heart. Don't get me wrong, to no extent do I wish to defend a man for his careless decisions, but perhaps we should also acknowledge that there is more to a person than a media portrayal and a mess of jumbled up words.
As of late, I have gathered a fancy for taking rain checks. I have always been one to have trouble meeting social obligations, and this winter semester is not looking promising at all. I am thinking about going into hiding (yes, I have unresolved spy aspirations), but I promise that only as a last resort. For now though, my umbrella and I are taking the time to get better acquainted (:
