oldies

yes this is an update of my life.

welcome to the lunar year of the rooster. i am born in the year of rooster as well.. 24 years ago, that is. sigh.. nearing 24 in slightly more than half a year's time. nonetheless, the lunar new year is off to a decent start in terms of cash flow from blackjack. managed to cover last year's loss and got way more extra. i hope to keep this nice record until the end of the lunar new year celebration period.. when such activities will be deemed illegal.. haha.

back to reality, back to campus, back to school work. though i feel heat building in my body thanks to the unhealthy diet over the last few days, i have to power through and keep up to speed with daily classes and assignments. so yes, here i am back in the mundane life as i struggle to make sense of the things being taught and still hoping some internship application will give me good news.

came across a compilation of 90s hit songs as well this morning. started to feel nostalgic and been listening to old songs ever since. shall share some now and then until my music head is off the history books.. lol. until next time then, cheers.

mounting

yes this is an update of my life.

chinese new year is this weekend.. good slightly-longer weekend to end the first week of tutorial. i can feel the pressure from the time and workload daunting starting this week. weekly tutorials and what not will be the norm until the end of the semester. what is worse is the projects from various modules have yet to kick in yet. bracing myself for those as well.

apart from the stress from modules, the need to find an internship this summer is looming as well. rejections from companies are just like break-ups, not matter how much you know they will hurt or think you are ready to absorb them, they still will hurt in an indescribable way each time. nonetheless, the difference is that the hurt from rejection by companies can be used as a motivation almost immediately upon occurrence. the other one takes no one knows how long to recover.

amidst the mounting of all the burden, i am glad that the usual TV series that i follow are back on air again. school days will past with greater ease thanks to them for they in a way force me to relax and take a break from the hassle of school. until next time then, cheers.
