Dilemma

Ok so it's my 3rd day of work. One word describes it all - EXHAUSTED.

First day was training, telling me what to do. The 2nd and 3rd day's the killer. My work starts at 5.30am and ends at 1.30pm. For the past 2 days, I've been going in at 6am and leave at 4.30pm. Reason? Cause there's this HSBC project (for those who doesn't know, I'm in a News Monitoring Agency. All I do is to monitor my client's - HSBC- news and categorize it accordingly, whether if it is positive/negative news, investment, banking, corporate responsibility-related news) that we're currently rushing on. According to my supervisor, we have to complete it asap before the due date which is next Tues. So actually I'm done with my work today by 1pm. I think I read approx 400 news. But seeing everyone's being so stressed out, I offered my help reading an extra 150-200 news and the next thing I know is its already 4.30pm - stayed longer than I expected.

Mom, sis and Chris has been nagging and nagging and nagging me for staying late -_- and I'm just a part-timer, I don't have OT. And to be honest, I'm really tired. Reading news ALLL about finance is driving me crazy! But on the other hand, I really feel bad for not helping. Everyone's dying to get the work done and I just leave them like that.

What you guys think? Should I just leave next time at 1.30pm or should I stay in and help =S

Life

Most of the people I know is already done with exams. And here I am, still stuck with one paper on Monday and its at frekin 1.30pm deng.

Ever wonder why do we have exams? If say its for the sake of gaining and testing our knowledge which you thought it could hold on in my brain forever then you're WRONG! I used to love Econs back in college and first year in uni but now I cant even remember whats the basic principle behind the demand-supply curve. Oh wait, I can't even remember some of the facts that I've studied for my Abnormal Psych paper! Bla bla

4 essay questions, 2 hours. SEI.

Education

Local government schools vs private schools

Do you think there's a difference in terms of intelligence between students coming from these two institutions? ie: people from private schools = smarter?

Was browsing through Australia's Master Chef website to find recipe for smoked salmon. And guess what I found, there's actually Junior Master Chef. WHOOOOTS!! These kids are less than 15 years of age and THEY CAN REALLY COOOK. Imagine a kid with 2 missing front tooth and his specialty dish is TIRAMISU. wtf.


Avocado and Tuna Sushi Sandwiches

Prawn Tortellini with Sauteed Marron, Pumpkin Puree and Prawn Oil

One word. WOW. I'm really really impressed.

Kopi

I am not a coffee person. I'll get pretty bad heart palpitation even if I drink a tiny-biny sip out of it.

Ironically, I've been drinking coffee everyday for the past 1 week. Though my heartbeat tend to race up abit but it wasn't as bad as before. I guess my body's kinda fucked up after all the studying, staying an average of 10 hours/day in Monash. Yes Monday to Saturday, 10am to 8pm (sometimes 10pm) cause I have no life.

Bought Sanfran's Extreme sized ice blended latte the other day. Mmmmmm it was SOOOO good. Sorry la maybe I'm abit paria and there's better coffee out there but I'm currently happy with this one:


Drinking coffee makes me focus, for real and I'm starting to like the taste of it. Who cares if I'm using caffeine illicitly due to positive reinforcement? I blame Monash for all the stressful life events.

愿望

尽管我怎么努力,都是白费的。

梦碎了。
