- Overload -

My title reminds me of Sugababe's song which used to be stucked on repeat. I went on a half-hearted, overdue off-in-lieu yesterday and took a good rest. I have a total of 23 days of annual leave, 2 days of family leave, 2 days of off-in lieu (from public holidays), 6 exam leaves and occasional off-in-lieus from working over the weekends (to date, I have 2 such off days). I don't know if I will be able to consume them all. Maybe carry some of them to next year because I will be graduating!

I'm glad I took the day off even though I didn't really complete ALL my projects. It was meant for my discussion board posting, business analytics applications project and multivariate analysis project. It was restful and relaxing at the same time. Initially (like always), I didn't want to take it. I'm very stingy with my leaves. My peers take them (+ medical leaves) like breathing I tell you. If I don't take I will be overloaded one day, somehow. Better take them before they MC on me, urgent leave or take leave when I really need to.

Went for a jog at 6ish in the evening and felt like crying because I only did 4km and I was terribly slow! It took me 30 mins and I actually walked my last km :( A little scaredy that running is no longer my liberation and am soon taking after the pups's vice, ICE CREAM! Been constantly craving for ice cream and getting a quick fix from Macdonald's Soft Serve.

I have an individual project coming up, due on the 26 April 2010. These 2 weeks' gonna be a rough rough ride. Nevertheless, I think I have to break my psychological barrier. It is the most vital step to accomplishing things. Exams are coming soon...weekends are kinda packed too with work on Saturday morning, project meeting in the afternoon and meeting Lydia for mutarbuk in the evening. Can't wait! She will HUG me again!!! SUPERLOVES. Sunday will go for run again then work on my project and revise my Japanese since class will most likely be cancelled. Late afternoon meeting jolynn to check into the pasir ris bungalow.

Work has been ok. Have been meeting up Pris and Lingy for lunch. Caught up with PB and Lingy for dinner & coffee at SAM's DOME the other night and was reminded of my sad past. Surprisingly, I managed to forget alot of things. The dramatic happenings that they held me through were completely off my mind! They remembered I housed them in my room for some periods when they needed a sanctuary. Amazing how the past 4-5 years breezed past and had sorta overwritten the entire history before. Of course, though I don't remember details, I remember being slapped, having my money all withdrawn, being cheated and so on and so forth. I knew I had been crazy, I had been emotional and I had also slapped people. Don't remember details though. When I relate them, they're just factually written across like scrolls on bloomberg or something.

Besides those moments, we had a good laugh talking about boyfriends in general. I'm so over boys now. They're never gonna take me seriously so I am just gonna be superficial and not let them into my world. We'll see how things goes. I guess it is my way of protecting myself, if it does at all.

In short, to quote Rozz's words, 'LIVE WELL'. I'm trying to get myself on a 'training' schedule of sorts, from running to cycling and then eating more greens and grains. Age is definitely catching up!

Oh, before I forget, gotta thank boonie for helping me sell my camera. Sold my sexy red-soled, black peeptoed gripz heels to pris and want to sell sparky (my hybrid) for a road bike in preparation for next year's race!

Be Good and have a blessed weekend.
