If I remember correctly (because all the days just go past without me realising it), it was Graham Tomlin who gave sermon on Sunday on Sloth.

Sloth is defined as spiritual and/or actual apathy or laziness, putting off what God asks you to do, or not doing it or anything at all. Sloth can also concern wasting due to lack of use or allowing entropy, expanding into almost any person, place, thing, skills, or intangible ideal that would require maintenance, refinement and/or support to continue to exist. The modern view of the vice, as highlighted by its contrary virtue of zeal or diligence, is that it represents the failure to utilize one's talents and gifts. For example, a student who does not work beyond what is required (and thus fails to achieve his or her full potential) could be labeled slothful. - Wikipedia

And I thought gluttony was my deadly sin. Idle, uncaring to the extent of being unable to do something simple like delivering a good piece of coursework, it's time to change (I always say that but it never seems to happen). I have no idea if this is the cause or result of procrastination.

Ah well... enough of that. The end of the term is here! I'm not particularly happy about it. While it means that I have more time for myself and to catch up with whatever I need to do, it also means that I'm becoming older. And as that happens, it becomes more and more obvious that I don't really have anything in my life. I see people who have found their passion in certain activities and here I am, completely uninterested in anything. If you take away all the people in my life, God, chocolates, you'll be left with a girl who doesn't know what she's doing on the earth.

It's really strange considering that a few years ago, I was so hyped up over the idea of being able to take more active role in protecting my family (by working in DSTA) and now I'm not really sure if DSTA is for me. I guess it's all partly because I picked a course that I had no particular interest in. Oh well, it's too late to change course and be a forensic scientist (my interest in forensic science is really just a phase... I'll probably grow out of it when the entire CSI series end.)

Don't get me wrong, I'm not suicidal or anything. There is so much in my life to live for. I'm just lamenting the fact that I have no hobbies (and absolutely nothing to do during the hols... except a crappy lab report, an essay, some computing exercise and a group project). Baking, drawing, gymming, trying to play music is all fun but at the end of the day, there's still no PASSION. But I guess there aren't a lot of people who found an activity that they will give up everything to pursue. Oh well, for now I'll just and pretend that EEE = my passion. =) In any case, I'm luckier than many people in this world because I can still find reasons to pull myself out of bed in the morning and face the day rather than hiding under my nice warm duvet. On certain days we may want to sleep in but if you could just get yourself to draw the curtains open, you'll see how bright and sunny the world is (even in gloomy London).

"Always up for a laugh, she's a pain in the ass. Every time that we meet, I skip a heartbeat." - Scouting for Girls' Heartbeat =)

Lol, the first few times I heard this song I kept wondering why someone will skip a heartbeat for a pain in the ass. It was only until I listened properly to the full lyrics that I realised what the song actually meant.
