Let me rest a little longer...

Well, I'm back in my hall room now.

Another 10page social work essay to be done and submitted this Wednesday, which means another day or two of holeing myself up in my room.

After this I have another one individual literature essay, one counselling group presentation and two group projects (for my English language and Mental Health modules) due these coming weeks leading up to our final examinations in late April - early May. I have secretariat responsibilities in the social work society which I love. And I may have pissed off a friend or two who have tried asking me out for a meal but I had to decline.

Gawdddd, while I am sorry to do so, please understand that I haven't even had much time for myself. Let's not even talk about the piles of academic readings left untouched on my desk, or the fact that I go home on the weekends so tired, I sleep 9-12hours at one go, and sometimes having to go for meetings or running some errands and not spending much time with my family at all. I manage to squeeze in a run or two on weekday nights, running till 11pm+; catching up with friends is done online via MSN or Gmail chat till 3am. Though truly, I love spending time with some friends in the wee hours of the morning, talking face-to-face or over the internet~:)

It's crazy, everything is, but I guess I continue living it as if it's the only way I know how.

With the grace of God, I am able to handle all these. A little lack of sleep is alright on some days. But usually, it is the misunderstandings with friends I've had over my lack of time I have for them, or something else, that really wears me down; tires the soul with a wreck of emotions.

*sigh*

Can I please have some time for myself too? I would really really love some quiet time alone talking with God, a walk around town with my Lumix out for a shoot, or a simple relaxing time at the airport with a friend, just watching the planes take off into the skies...
