Shadow of the Night

Thursday, 17 January, 2008

Sorry for the lack of updates lately.  It has been a crazy month starting from the finals, the farewell for Ricky, Orlando and Miami trip (Nassau was canceled due to not having Visa), to being back in Ann Arbor, the daily snow and wind… And then there is the ballad that is GOING TO SCHOOL.

For the past weeks I have been pushing myself, falling back into procrastination and then pushing myself forward again… It’s a tough job, but I have to get things done just like everyone else. I could say that I have been working too hard and I should be proud of myself, but then I’d be lying to myself. I can do better, much better. The state of slum that I am now, only god knows how pathetic it is, compared to how I was half a decade ago. It’s a joke, frankly. Really. Recent friends would know me for someone who’s always having that inner struggle, that cha-cha-cha and salsa and tango between being active and passive. They’re 2 separate people at times…

But I digressed. I was just going to complain about the things I’ve put myself through (you may call it my cold turkey period). Like doing homework ahead of time, waking up before sunrise just to get to an 8am lab, doing this and that and finding out about millions of stuff and… Haih, yeah there I went, exaggerating everything again. Anyhoo, I just wanna say I can do better. And I should really do better.
