This weekend has probably been the most tiring of my life. Definitely something I'll always remember.

The trip there. Our actual stay. The race. Its aftermath. Saturday night. Sunday morning. The B-movie-filled trip back. Our quickest Pancake House meal ever. JP's house. My interview with Sir Krip after.

Haaaay.

One of the longest weekends of my life, but looking back it's felt like one of the shortest. The full spectrum of emotions within 37 hours. I've learned so much within these past two days.

It's best not to get your hopes up when it comes to people you've just begun to get to know. Maybe it's best to stay guarded for a bit before believing the best in them. It hurts to be disappointed.

Sometimes others can be quick to judge what they don't understand. Maybe it's hard to outgrow that sort of narrow intolerance. The two-facedness that comes with it is difficult to understand though.

Still of course, not all of it is negative.

I learned a lot about what I'm capable of achieving - when you're forced to push the limits, sometimes you really can.

I learned that most people are extrememly kind, despite their own troubles. How wonderful it was to see selfless generosity acting in people. Truly selfless. Wow. It's experiences like this that just reaffirm my faith in humans.

I learned that I'm extremely lucky to be as spoiled as I am, not necessarily in material things, but more of with my friends. I'm glad to have a friend who will always be able to cheer me up and make me smile. As I'm glad to have a friend I know I'll be able to get past almost anything with. I reembered how much I love having knowing people I can to about almost anything about. Thank God for those people.

My brain's pretty much fried na. More on some other day. Or maybe in my LJ.
