Anyway, CNY this year was pretty normal and as usual. Going to the same old places for visiting, seeing the same faces that you see only once a year. Every time you see them, all they can say is that you've grown one year older. 长大了. wow thanks for reminding me, like I wasn't aware of it. The only new thing I've experienced is playing bridge. Which I must warn is a highly addictive and evil game. It brings out human greed and excitement level is 200%.
My very first cultural night was just over, and I feel satisfyingly good about it. I've finally managed to perform on a stage in front of a crowd like I've always hoped for. I'm glad that my parents were able to make it. Got lovely flowers from my family and friends. Made all the effort and practice worth while.
Projects have been piling but I've been diligently finishing them up on time. Somehow I feel that I'm putting in more effort in my work as compared to last semester. More daring, unafraid to try, putting in more thought into my ideas. But then again, art is always subjective so it may not turn out as I'd expected. Elective sprung a relatively last minute test which I only found out the day before since I skipped previous week's lecture. Tried mugging for it and thankfully it wasn't so as bad as I thought.
Next week's recess week thank goodness, but I still have a lot of work to do as usual. I've had enough of all the bullshit about people in ADM being slack and chill.
Sometimes I feel like I think too much. Become over sensitive.. brood over issues and refuse to let it go. I let it accumulate and cause myself so much unhappiness. Sometimes I feel like I'm so fickle. When a seemingly new and better opportunity comes along, my initial resolve will start to waver until I reassure and convince myself again. So many things so many things..
