Just went for a short jog just now, but ate supper after that. Been giving in to temptations too easily these days, which kind of makes me feel happy haha. Not wise to be too critical of myself especially in stressful times.

Put down some important dates on my calendar and saw clusters of minefields everywhere- project submissions, presentations, quizzes and exams. These few months are definitely not going to be easy. God bless me. Hands were itching for more Texas Holdem action these days, but have to keep control of myself. Sleep and rest is more important.

Before the start of the school term, I have already been thinking about what school life may seem from March onwards. Although I have tried to psyche myself up several times already, it looks like I can never be too ready for it. Felt a jolt of stress in me a week ago and was sharing my feelings with Laura. Just have to learn to take it easy, especially these few months. Have to take things down as they come in small regular doses, rather than allowing them to snowball.

Then come July, work starts. Hopefully the economy will pick up then and everyone’s safe. And before this new phase of my life, holidays are waiting. Thinking of going for some spiritual enlightening before work. So Tibet anyone?
