Fade away..
Tuesday, August 11, 2009
i'm so tired.

work never seems to end, even after a crazy rush of duties fulfilled during the 3 months when every normal student is enjoying life and relaxing. i seriously need a break, a getaway from all the work and responsibilities i need to shoulder once i get back on track.

not to forget, this sem's 7 module workload is going to be yet another obstacle to handle. i really wish my last sem in NUS before i leave would be enjoyable...=x

there's always a recovery period for every person, and i'm pretty sure i've reached my breaking point after 2 years of service. it's funny how something so enjoyable becomes that much of a sacrifice once you grow old, but i'm running out of steam and fighting really hard to maintain myself through this final semester. i need a big break away from NUS, from all the work that people need me to do, or the things people expect me to fulfil.

somehow, i just can't stand anymore politicking. i'm out of this arena, and i've nothing left to offer. i'm spent. so please don't heap any more work to me, i'm already reaching my neck in shit that i cannot solve by myself.

i just want to complain.

There's a Hole in my

Sidewalk
I
I walk down the street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I fall in.
I am lost...I am helpless.
It isn't my fault.
It takes forever to find a way out.

II
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I pretend I don't see it.
I fall in again.
I can't believe I am in the same place.
But, it isn't my fault.
It still takes a long time to get out.

III
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I see it is there.
I still fall in. Its a habit.
My eyes are open.
I know where I am.
It is my fault. I get out immediately.

IV
I walk down the same street.
There is a deep hole in the sidewalk.
I walk around it.

V
I walk down another street.
