I mentioned a lake on my blog entitled 'The University Life". Many may not know the greatness of this lake. Trust me when I say that this lake is greater than you think! This lake is situated in my university (It's called the Lakeside Campus for a reason DUHHH)
It has been some time since I sat there for hours just to reflect on life but that is not because I don't want to but it because schedules became so packed and I decided that even if I am going to get stuck in traffic; it is fine. I just want to go back to my apartment after a long and tiring day.
But last week, I did get to go back there and look at the lake and experience the calmness again. This time was actually much better than all the other times I have sat here just doing some thinking or letting my brain have a mental breakdown. Why? Because I had my best friend beside me after months of not meeting. "Come on. What is wrong with life? What is so hard? Why is it hard?" That's the thing. At that moment, nothing was wrong. It felt like all the hardship just flew away just like that. Maybe that was what I needed all along. Just some time off with the people I love you know. I can surely say that life has never been better since the university life started. Since finals are just days away, it was a great way to de-stress.
The lake is a place that I know many of the students here take it as a place that calmness can overtake the stress even if it is just for awhile. Bless me for getting the chance to study here and actually have that lake on campus and not just blocks of buildings that have robots walking all over. I can tell you that the students here are all working like robots sometimes but you always see the human side of them being goofy and you know; human.
As you can see by now, this lake doesn't do much but it does a whole lot at the same time. It is just some paradox or something but a really good one. I have never thought that a lake that is in the middle of a university campus can change how I feel and give me peace.
Maybe that is just the honour of the lake?
XOXO
Till next time
~Good Luck for finals everyone <3
