School has started again! Sometimes it’s good to have a break. And when you go back to working on it, it just feels so different. Or refreshing I’d say. I don’t know why. But somehow I always feel good whenever a new term starts and I get into a class with mostly familiar faces, a few unfamiliar ones and a different lecturer. You get to meet more people and get to ‘evaluate’ the new lecturer. Of course, the customary self-introduction during the first class of each module is ALWAYS the most boring part. But other than that, when you’re learning something new, something different, its always a refreshing experience!
Now, how I just wish I can take a break from work (without using my leave. They’re so precious!!). Life as a student is fun. Classes, study, stress, assignments, stress, projects, lots of stress and then holidays. Recharge, face something different and CONQUER!
LOL, I don’t know if this is a self-fulfilling prophecy (psychological term) I’m applying on myself. Maybe I’m just looking at things on a brighter side to not demoralize myself. Or maybe not! But I really enjoyed my first class after 2 weeks of holidays.
Year 2008 is almost 1/3 gone (time REALLY flies doesn’t it?). And I predict this term to be really stressful because I’m taking 2 modules this term and both classes are on weeknights! I had 1st hand experience on how its like to have lessons on a weekday after work today. Its so stressing! I had to rush to complete all that’s supposed to be done for the day (to be in time for class) and for the month. The month is coming to an end and lots of closing of accounts has to be done. There were so many events over the month of April! Just the World Gourmet Summit (WGS) is enough to kill. Not to mention Food Hotel Asia 2008 (FHA), Premium Wine Tasting 2008 at The American Club and many others! Lots of wines lying around in my office from the events, not settled. Lots of new labels brought in, not allocated a space in the wine room. Lots of things to settle, too little time. And towards the end of this school term, I will be stressed with double the assignments, double the projects, double the workload!
New challenges awaits me. And I’m not backing down!
