It had to end

Sigh. This is the first time I ever missed school. Sigh. What is the world coming to when one longs for the very thing many others dread? It shows it is getting better. At least that is what I think.

It was a bitter-sweet moment. As much as I wanted the school year not to end (I know I sound mad, bear with me), I too looked forward to the new school year. It had to end, sometime.

And, I am glad that it actually lasts for three more years.

sighs of life

The following list categorises what I call the 'sighs of life'. This may or may not be applicable to you.

Sighs of Life
1. When people score better in life than you do, yet they complain.
2. When no one stops when you hitch-hike or hail a cab, just before an interview.
3. When you can't reach a switch.
4. When the toilet refuses to flush when it's 'full'.
5. When you expect reciprocation, you don't get it.
6. When the printer breaks down the night before a deadline.
7. When the computer hangs on you at a 7-hour download at 95% status.
8. When, at 5 am in the morning, you realise that you have to wake up at 5.30 am.
9. When you are tired and sleepy.
10. When you got plenty more sighs, yet the 'sighs of life' list has ended.
Sigh.

over and out.

The exams are over. And out of my schedule. Over and out. I'm lame.

But, it's not over yet. Projects and more assignments are awaiting my attention, to which sparsely I shall give. Tell it to Them. But, never mind, I shan't blame Them. After all, work is what keeps me going. (Note the serious expression on my face and my grim voice.)

Isn't it so?
Work, is what keeps us focused on achieving our goals.
Without work, I would just be whiling time away, doing nothing at home, twiddling thumbs.
I'd feel wasted. Like, there was nothing to live for.
Okay, maybe work is just one of the many commitments we have in life.
Maybe it isn't really much of an issue in life to some.

Well, too much of a good thing can be bad anyway.

ignoramus.

I didn't know that Science was this tough.

Until now. Sigh, the woes of calculations.

What an Ignoramus I am. Well, who asked me to. No one, right?

I didn't know that Science was this tough.

diversity and subject combinations

I have to choose what I want to study.
Sounds good?
Not for me.

Spoilt for choice?
Nah.
Depends on how well I do.

Isn't it true that we should always be balanced?
So. Does that mean Einstein should make way for Fleming and Bohr?
Or should it be the other way around?
I have no idea.

And does that mean I should choose between Livingstone and Macaulay?
Or can both keep the balance?
Again, I have no idea.

Subject combinations. Education's interpretation of diversity.
Amazon rainforest, here I come.
