"Post" New Year Mood
Is there a difference in the before and after? No, I don't think so...I have been working on my projects since the beginning of the new year. The only thing that I can actually remember doing is collecting Ang Pows and of course, the books, internet, phone calls, handouts, notes...you know...
Not nice at all... A new year spent like this is certainly a "first" for me. The first thing that I see when I peer out into the world are people all dressed up and chatting happily away; compare that to my sorry plight... Sitting all alone in my room, up to the neck with deadlines, notes and all else that would otherwise turn this day into a wonderful and fun filled one.
I do not seek to lament or blame anyone or anything for this sudden down swing of my mood. But I just can't feel the air of festivities, not even a teeny bit. Is it just me or are we all in the same boat.
I had a call from a "long lost" army friend of mine this morning. He said something like missing the good old "chinese new year" mood we all had when we were young. Everything seem so simple and enjoyable. Missing, gone, lost; nothing of that sort ever applies to our feelings for new year now. How I wish we could relive the moment of our childhood for just a day? I would really like to throw everything away...at least for a day.

if your goal is to finish your studies with flying colours, going through a tough segment will enable you to learn more so as to achieve your goals.
knowing that you are on the way to achieving what you want, should suffice in making you smile as you plough through the great deal of work..
but never forget to rest well when you need to! a good rest gives a great boost to morale and keeps you functioning at your best.
stay healthy!
