Take The Wheel

on exams stress

past few weeks have been insane; exams, projects and presentations come and go each and every day. been really tired and there is still finance management exam with its killer professor who is notorious for being super stingy with grades. my body's really tired and hopefully i can make it til next thursday, just two more exams to go

not sure who mentioned it first but somehow this song was mentioned during my light conversation with my friends just now. i've heard it quite some time ago and at that time, it didn't really have any impact whatsoever. just like any other easy listening song, it was easy on the ears but nothing much *shrugs*

just now i went to youtube to give the song a second shot... it's interesting how this song speaks to me in a strange manner. i've always known that my character failing is in trying to do too many things at one time and when everything crumbles apart i'll be complaining

this reminds me of a story back in my sunday church once *long long LOOOOONG time ago* when i was still a toddler. a child was making lego blocks of a tall building, he was so busy trying to figure out how to make the building higher, putting parts together slowly. when his father asked him if he needs any help, the boy shrugged off the offer saying that it's his own creation and he should build it on his own. the firm and tall looking building which the boy spent his hours making suddenly came tumbling down, broken into small pieces. the boy cried and asked his dad why he didn't try to do anything to stop the building from crashing down. the father answered, because you don't let me help you and take the lead...

jesus, take the wheel...
