Exams!

Shouldn't leave such an angsty post on the top for too long.

Till after exams!

=)

I have never ever been so stressed out since I entered uni.

There are so many things on my mind every fking second and everything single thing is so fking important that i can't give up any. seriously, my birthday celebration has to be the last on the list. i even find my own celebration a nuisance to my schedule.

i am not purely lamenting or exaggerating my situation, seriously i have never been in a bigger piece of shit before.

im someone who works under pressure. but this time round, its so overwhelming that it prolly won't work that way already.

im not just bored or sick of doing assignments, but I've reach the level where I feel I have no inputs to the assignments. staring at the stupid word document for half an hour not writing anything is so common i think its abnormal already.

I actually feel like I'm undergoing depression. go away.

i need to run away to thailand. i need to run away to langkawi. now.

that was wrong.

from now on..

As of now, my deadlines are as follows:

Tourism Essay (2000 words) (5^th April)

GE3227 Reading Presentation Slides (5^th April)

GE3239 Project (2000 words) (6^th April)

GE2206 Presentation (7^th April)

RE1805 Project (max 25 pages long) (8^th April)

Hobo Report Findings (10 pages long) (9^th April)

Learning Portfolios final (6 to 7 entries) (13^th April)

I haven't touch my readings for years. And my exams start on 26th of April.

Please give me a hard knock on my head if I appear to be not doing work from now on.

GEE.

Extracted from Mitch Albom's Have a Little Faith:

From a Sermon by the Reb, 1975

A man seeks employment on a farm. He hands his letter of recommendation to his new employer. It reads simply, “He sleeps in a storm.”

The owner is desperate for help, so he hires the man.

Several weeks pass, and suddenly, in the middle of the night, a powerful storm rips through the valley.

Awakened by the swirling rain and howling wind, the owner leaps out of bed. He calls for his new hired hand, but the man is sleeping soundly.

So he dashes off to the barn. He sees, to his amazement, that the animals are secure with plenty of feed.

He runs out to the field. He sees the bales of wheat have been bound and are wrapped in tarpaulins.

He races to the silo. The doors are latched, and the grain is dry.

And then he understands. “He sleeps in a storm”.

My friends, if we tend to the things that are important in life, if we are right with those we love and behave in line with our faith, our lives will not be cursed with the aching throb of unfulfilled business. Our words will always be sincere, our embraces will be tight. We will never wallow in the agony of“I could have, I should have”. We can sleep in a storm.

“And when it’s time, our good-byes will be complete.”

School at Sea

我.

这一年里,

对一些友情感到些许的失望.

是我的问题.

拥有的美好回忆越来越少, 有时甚至有点害怕这些回忆会变成只有我一个人在留恋, 珍惜的.

但, 人生就是这样. 无奈.

不知道老天爷为我安排了什么, 但目前, 我不是过得很快乐.

It's time I live my own experiences.
