Total Deflation


When you stop to think what are the things that have been driving your life and all you see are events, activities or things to tick off in your to-do checklist, it's total deflation time. Like a balloon that's been losing its puffiness, you will eventually become a piece of limp, flat, overstretched rubber.

No huge upheavals in my life, unlike last year. Simply everyone or everything that seems to need or want to warrant my attention.
The thing that signalled this deflation period for me was the immense drive and desire to chill out, hopefully with a glass of wine (or actually any alcohol-laden beverage), kick off my heels and NUAH. Can't seem to find a better word to replace this. Absolute nothingness. That led to the impromptu trip w shu down to Axis bar @ Oriental last night. Though a short few hours, doused with an excellent white in my hand, it seemed like eternal bliss.

A peek into ewok's life of living for other people, besides JC*...
1. Mega big arrow to do newsletter for the school from the boss himself. I do not mind at all - I forsee huge learning curve ahead, which is something that is exciting for me. Well, there is a slight difference between arrowing me via email and personally one-to-one. I prefer the latter. All you have to do is ask, nicely.

2. The need to prepare cell grp for chris's girls. Day in and out, five days a week I'm surrounded by kids. Now I face them on alternate Sundays too. If there is something called overdose, this is definitely it. Perhaps the harsh reality has set in - I may have been too innocent and ambitious to agree to help.

3. My CNY ang bao from my module coordinator - 1500 word essay due on 13 Feb. Dreams of my doing-nothing life has just been smashed. Make that total obliteration. Apocalypse. KA-PUT.

4. Rearranging my schedule or things to do around other people's schedules. No, I went for facial instead of cell reunion dinner. I'm sorry for not being there but not apologetic that I missed it. I booked the session beforehand, way before this came along. I shouldn't feel bad, should I?

5. Sitting around (Some call it resting) at home on a Saturday - working my butt off because through the entire week, there was zilch time to mark or plan or do anything other than meetings meetings and more meetings. Not to mention cover minimal readings for the modules.

6. Need to relook timetable schedules for the entire level so there will be (ideally) no clashes during the coming exams. I need divine intervention.

*Just to clarify, it means Jesus Christ, not Jay Chou. Thought you may be mistaken.
I caught you there, didnt I? ;P

Think I need a Linkin Park song and dear old Chester to screech out all my frustrations and lil' boring complaints.
Welcome to my life! (Oops, that's Simple Plan?)

On a positive note, J's concert cd is coming out soon and his movie's opening this Thurs. You know you are pathetic when you look forward to things like these. That is PATHETIC spelled in capital letters.
