Musing

Posted by Simon Welsh | 20 October 2009 | Comments (3)

I've been doing some musing lately, (if you don't know what musing is, Sarah defines muse over in this post) ending with me deciding that I really need to fix the text size in the tinyMCE editor so I can stop squinting. Aaah, that's better.

This musing has helped learn a few tidbits about stuff.

  • Calculus is my funniest subject.
  • When walkways say expected time of 4-5 hours, they mean for slow people.
  • The swings in Melrose Park are fun
  • My arms are pathetic
  • I still don't know how to act around children. Should make Cutting Edge "fun".
  • I'm still afraid of dogs and not that good at hiding it.
  • My name should be "Simon Handicap"
  • Wellington has awesome weather. (Gale force wins, torrential rain and sun, in different combinations throughout my walk)
  • The Southern Walkway isn't very well signposted before Mt. Vic.
  • Getting lost in Mt. Vic is far too easy.
  • The swings in The Crescent Play Area are fun
  • Church isn't very loud. If I didn't know otherwise, I wouldn't have known a service had just started.
  • The swings in Kilbirnie Park Play Area are fun.
  • I am still able to be happy (instead of just enjoying things).
  • People I don't know seem to be a lot less scary then I think they are.
  • There is almost no point in owning a phone, other than for Twitter access from anywhere with reception.
  • If 1 Corinthians 12:12-31 uses part(s) instead of member(s), it doesn't feel right.
  • Cocoa is awesome.
Only some of these actually resulted from musing, rather than just my normal random thought process, but musings sounds cooler.

  • Slow people or people who stop every thirty seconds to take photos. Which I guess is a way of being a slow person.

  • Simon Handicap because that's what one of the 8 year olds told me.

    I also don't know how to act around non-kids, so can't even apply that to them.

    I'm lucky in that I barely care at all if other people disagree with my beliefs or way of doing things. Like the current my literal 6-day creation belief vs everyone else in #aioc.

    The serious talk made me realise how much I really need to improve this comments system. Or the email it sends me at least :)

  • Why "simon handicap"?

    Also, I can relate to the small children and how to act confusion.
    I think what kiddies generally hide is that they're just as nervous, and mostly want the older person to initiate everything. Treat them as if they matter (and not like they're stupid, ie. no patronising) and things seem to go okay.

    I've noticed that kids often question my choices and attitudes to stuff, if it's different to their own (or how they've been brought up). I think there is value in staying true to how YOU do things/think etc but being willing to explain your choices. I'm trying to learn that I don't have to pretend away my differences, but instead having faith in who God's made me to be, without being unconstructively negative about how other people approach things.

    Nuff serious talk :)
