Hm...what a day.
Today, I finally got Silver for NAPFA!!! 1st time ever wah haha.... And I amazed myself too cause I finally achieved one of my goals haha... Ok believe it or not I was like stuffing myself with potato chips while I was revising bio notes last night and the only exercise I did was on Monday. Ok at least today turned out quite well. Rawr! Completed everything at one go. Well, that's one less worry to think about. Still have to maintain my fitness though. Exercise exercise!
Well, after school I decided to stay back in school to do work cause, like yeah it takes time for me to settle down at home, so why not just study in school immediately? I dont bring so BIG bags to school for nothing ok? But I must admit... sooner or later either my arm or my back is gonna break. Or the bags. Wait, they ARE breaking already. My mom had to do a bit of sewing to the bag I always wear on my back. Oops... Well as for the other bag I hold in my hand, it's two compartments have "combined" cause the centre portion tore liao. Ok....time to look for a new bag soon. Maybe one with a sling or something, I dunno. Ok I cant really imagine how I'll look like walking around school if I got that. I'm like the only guy in school who uses 2 BIG bags for dunno what. Sekali people thing I want attract attention only. Ok actually I think people think I'm some nerd and just forget about it haha. Carrying 2 bags after completing NAPFA today was yet another obstacle lol.
Besides that, oh well today was quite productive so far when I was studying in the council room. One of the more quieter places in school where you wont get bothered at all. Its quite far away from any noise pollution too. Put on the earphones, listen to music, and off to studying. Though studying alone has its cons too. No one to approach to when you have questions. But questions can be asked another day as long as you note them down.
Well, I must admit I'm quite happy cause I didnt end up falling asleep while I was doing work alone. At least not like last time. Ok I got a bit giddy at one time and like enter into a stone trance, but it got over after I looked out at the window to divert my attention away for a while. After spending around 3+ hours doing work at one go, I decided to take a break and went down to see what the councillors were doing. As I were informed, some of them were busy preparing firewood for council camp. Lots of hammering, breaking wood, pulling out nails and stuff. And well, I initially intended to just walk by and ask how they were doing, but as I stood there watching them work, its like yah I just felt I had to help them out. I would have felt so bad if I were to just walk off like that. So as a last minute decision, I ended up helping them out too. Labour intensive industries again haha. Well I admit, I enjoyed every moment of it. Feels like the old times when we always worked together through thick and thin. Which is what made me feel so strongly connected to council. Me and my strong sense of responsibility again. Or as people say.
Well, ok I could have spent the time on studying, or rather I should have, but maybe I just needed that break. I havent felt so satisfied as today. My past week was a terrible one. And nowadays its just studies studies studies. So using some time to get my mood back isnt so bad an idea after all. The sense of having revived feelings. Haha. But yes, priorities are always priorities. At least I aint rejecting myself from studying at home now. Even after today I still feel ok to contribute some more energy, no matter how little, into doing some revision after such a busy day. I can sense a slow improvement in me I guess. Just have to continue working hard.
Hm, at the end of the day, I'm reminded of another one of the philosophies which I always remember in my heart. That is to always be accountable to yourself. Anything is ok as long as you know you contributed your part, and you dont blame yourself. Haha...I seemed to have forgotten that for a long time. Its suddenly back again. :)
Ok. Back to work. After all that talk, its back to action yet again. I must not let myself down again. Nor the family and friends who care for me and support me as well.
Continue forward!
