Well, I guess the honeymoon's over.

Cracks and crevices are beginning to appear. Lines have appeared and divided people.

Expected really, but what can we do?

An interesting fact

I noticed something interesting today.

I sleep later in the holidays doing work than during the school term.

Plus, if I stay up past 11.30pm, I can't sleep till 1am. And if I manage to stay up past 1am, I can don't sleep till the next day.

Hmmm, makes me wonder sometimes what I can do.

A little reminder

Remember in the previous post I mentioned something about a spastic SPA? Well, it turns out that I didn't do as badly as I had imagined.

Well, today was the last day of Term 1 of my JC life. How quickly time has flown and how much time I have wasted.

I was keen to work hard, motivated by the makeup of my current class. Keeping that up for a few weeks seemed manageable at first, until I succumbed to temptations of relaxation and basically slacking.

I have back-slided. I have not completed or fulfilled any of the goals I had set out for myself, academic or not. I have failed thus far.

It is fitting that this post serves as a reminder to me as I type it out that the final goal of my academic life in RI(JC) is not as far as I might like to believe. I said so myself during Econs class today.

This is a reminder to me to stop slacking and start working. They say that life is not just about academics, but I beg to differ now. I am a student, a occupation that can be found on many of the internet drop-down lists during registrations. It is a duty, a burden but burdens only make one stronger.

I am in no way on par with anyone in my class. I can be considered one of the weakest relatively and thus am in no position to procrastinate, slack or waste my time away.

I need to start working harder, smarter, faster. I need to stop whatever I am doing wrong and start doing things the right way. I need to stop failing in my self-discipline, stop failing to control my urges to watch videos or surf websites online.

I have a potential to fulfil. I cannot let the people who have expectations in me down. I cannot fail my own self-pride.

I cannot fail myself anymore.

This may perhaps be one of the last posts on this blog for a long, long time. Should there be an update in the near future, it will be one of necessity, or I may have changed my mind and decided that time is not wasted here... let's see how it goes.

Until next time, this blog and blogger bids adieu to the blogosphere.

And another one!

Just realised that the previous post was quite an achievement for me! It was my 100th post on this blog and I did not even realise it until now!

So just for the sake of it, this post is to celebrate the time spent (read: wasted) on this blog and to commemorate my 100th post!

Yay!

P.S. Yuxin, I don't have stuff to write about, that's why no new post. I don't even want to blog about the first day of RI(JC)... Too boring for nuts.

Of assignments and late nights

It's been a really long time since I last updated this blog, but as you guys (those that actually read the posts) can see from the title, there is a reason for it.

To tell you the truth, this is the first time for this term that I have stayed up to this time (that I am posting this post) <-- (sounds weird "posting this post"), to complete assignments. It's procrastination on my part and I will not lie about it. All the assignments that were rushed tonight were all part of a vicious cycle of:

1. I have tomorrow to do it.
2. I have the next day to do it.
...
x. I have the day before handing in to do it. (x being the numerical value of the number of days between the due date and the date I received the assignment)

In between the x number of days, some other assignment will pop up, and thus the cycle continues.

I need to do something about it. (But... that's what we all say)
