Diamond In The Rough

Exhausted is pretty much an understatement right now. My lack of absence here does really reflect that huh?

School's been crazy crazy busy even though I only have 4 days of school each week, 3 hours each time. But it's really crazy enough especially since this week till God only knows when, probably till school term ends.

While writing my topic paper for History of Management Thought yesterday, it dawned on me how rusty I am when it comes to writing "proper" stuff. It's been what? A good 3 years since I've left polytechnic, and yes, the 3 years have rekindled the bitter sweet memories of late night studying, last minute rushing to complete an assignment.

In these 3 years, I forgot how much I enjoyed writing and researching for projects as much as I complain about them. The amount of pride and joy when I know, I have done my best as I have could.Of course, there's the examinable/testable components where after 3 years, I still absolutely dread and loath.

I am stressed, but unbelievably happy.

It definitely helps when you have the sweetest girlfriend in the world. The one who willingly burnt her weekends with me at the Lee Kong Chian Reference Library, pouring over countless books, assisting the IT idiot me with the photocopy machine and being the friendly sunshine she is and making friends with the librarian (It paid off because the librarian kept an eye out for a book that I was desperate for).

With that said, you're my diamond in the rough, the one I've been waiting for. (:

"Oh, I remember you driving to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh when you know you're 'bout to cry
And I know your favorite songs and you tell me 'bout your dreams
Think I know where you belong, think I know it's with me"
