Of workaholic and time invested

Da Jie, you probably will laugh at my job schedule if I say it out, cause compared to you, it probably is nothing.

Still, recent weeks have been demanding. In terms of working and allocating time for other stuffs. I am working at the library mostly, from 8a.m to 3p.m. It used to be 9a.m. But then, an extra hours everyday will get me an extra 20 hours a month, meaning an extra of USD124.00 per month . And that is a lot! At least for me la.

Then sometimes there is catering which usually requires 8 to 9 hours of work in one single shift. So at times, it is 12-13 hours a day.

And then the days zip past. I mean ZIP.
*sigh*
The days past so fast and now it is the weekend. Know what I am doing on the weekend? I am trying to catch up with my summer course and the web-exam assigned. Summer has started for quite some time. A month in fact. And yet, here I am, still trying to orient myself.
Trying to grapple with time.
Trying to make everything makes sense.

*sigh*
The busy-ness makes me wonder whether I am just a walking zombie. Walking through the senseless motion of my routinely mundane routine. A half-existence.

I am tired of living a half-existence.
Being ruled by the appearance of moon and the rising of sun.

Don't know to cry or laugh?
I would choose the latter. Helps de-stress better.
Heh.
=P

Jiajia:
Thanks.

I don't think I have overworked myself at all.
Just, couldn't find time for my own space.
And I need a lot of my own space.
I guess that's my problem
