A breath of fresh air

It refreshing that for once in
what seemed like forever,
I'm online without rushing for an assignment
there's still  more to come.
but at least now there's finally a break in between

Life has finally slowed down a bit
to have time to focus on those
tiny but meaningful things in life.

to have those witty conversation,
to enjoy that cup of coffee slowly
to laugh together at things we find funny
to sing without a care
to just sit down and enjoy their company

these little things that just brighten up your day so much
you forget why you were so stressed up before
you remember that there's more to life
than the bulk of overwhelming assignments
and multiple deadlines
as well as
to remind you that life's good
just as it is.

Thesis is much more than you think.

This does describe it a certain extent...

I suppose this shows what's ahead.

Writing my thesis would be the focus

of many of my waking moments?

Then I found something else...

Below are mottoes rumored to be on the wall of Harvard's library

1.Sleep now you'll dream; Study now and a dream will come true.
2. I leave uncultivated today, was precisely yesterday perishes tomorrow which person of the body implored.
3. Thought is already is late, exactly is the earliest time
4.Better do it today than tomorrow.
5.The pain of study is temporary; the pain of not studying is lifelong.
6.You never lack time to study; you just lack the effort.
7.There might not be a ranking of happiness but there is surely a ranking of success.
8 Studying is not the only component of your life, but if you cannot even overcome this single component, what can you overcome?
9.Enjoy the pain if it's inevitable.
10.Get started early, work hard, it's the road to success
11.Nobody succeeds easily without complete self-control and strong perseverance. 
12.Time passes by.
13.Today's dripples will be tomorrow's tears.
14.Study like a dog; Play like a gentleman.
15.Stop walking today and you'll have to run tomorrow. 
16.A true realist is one who invests in future.
17.Education equals to income.
18.Today never comes back. 
19.Even at this very moment your competitors are still flipping pages.
20.No pain, No gain.

Although none of this is on the wall of the famous library,

I suppose that they do speak for themselves.

Now...

Study!

Sometimes I just wonder

Why do I even bother working so hard?

I used to believe that what we do today,

every single little thing would come up to something

that actually counts in the future

Now, I realize that a lot of things

are just inconsequential.

So then, I ask myself again,

Why?

Then I heard this

And then the lyrics didn't tell me why I was doing all these

Just that one day I might miss them all

More than I think.

Still not really making much sense

to why

but 

maybe when I look back

I'll really know

It seems like life is always filled with so many questions

maybe it's just me being curious and all

nonetheless,

are we just muddling through life,

not really knowing why and how?

we're just there

just like that

not knowing better
is that all there is to it?


I dunno but I did find this 

Maybe. Just maybe then.

Indeed. Why?

Writing here before assignment deadlines has almost become ritualistic
Even more when all you wanna do is to get it out of your mind
but you can't seem to start
or stop the thought process

Newest music obsession : Clay Aiken!
Can't believe that I just found out that
there's such musical talent around
since Idol season 2!
Now that's a long time.

Nonetheless, the man sounds awesome
I kid you not
He might have been the runner up
but for me, he was clearly the winner.
He initially did look like Einstein, the musical version
Looked so cute with his hair sticking out
and looking all so geeky with his glasses
Then, the transformation began.

After the competition,
he looked even more adorable!
Looks like the stylist really know their job.
Must get his album.

And now, back to pressing matters of reality
and the heaps of assignments with
oh, so very close together deadlines.
along with Clay Aiken's awesome voice.
Lol.

Why do you hate the ones you love the most?

They seem to be the most annoying

Hurtful

Heartbreaking

Inconsiderate people that you come across.

At the same time,

they can be the same person

who cares if you brought an umbrella on a rainy day

who wonders if you need someone to get you lunch

who cares that you got home safely

who makes you laugh at their dumb jokes

who makes you feel that they sometimes genuinely care

Its frustrating to know that they can be both

At times you wonder to yourself

Are you doing the right thing?

At some point,

you no longer know if there's a right thing.
