Cute

From Metroid Prime

We stand alone, in the last analysis, and gaze out into the future, in awe, or wonderment, or even trepidation. It lies ahead of us to be explored, embraced - we are part of the future now. What we do now will shape our futures. So - have a care - be careful what you wish for, as it may come to pass.

You know how I detest labels. In this instance, i might make an exception. This looks fun =]

I guess sometimes we all want to do this. This week, I have felt like doing this several times: my students have been especially demanding, but all for selfish, and not academic reasons. Of course, I have tried to keep everyone happy - that is my nature. For the most part, it worked. And then I realised how unhappy it had made me.

Next term is another term, and another chance to get it right. Strike the balance.
