Acting Busy

School has started 2 weeks ago…

I’m not exactly up to the neck with work, but I didn’t quit my job so I’m working on weekends and somehow or other, my brain seems to go into overwork mode whenever I attend a lesson. So that explains my lethargy and languid moods.

It doesn’t help that my classmates seem pretty studious and thus “inspire” me to work hard too. Something I never did in Polytechnic. And that needs lots of energy and work getting used to.

Answers to some FAQs:

Q: So how’s school?

A: Bad. School has never been good to me.

Q: Then why go back to school?

A: I happen to be a citizen of Singapore, where a degree does, to some extent, help you get a more high-paying job. Trust me. I’ve went on countless job-search engines during my self-imposed break of 1 year and most of the jobs I’m interested in, are looking for “degree holders”.

Q: How’s your classmates?

A: Besides a couple of them whom I chat to on a regular basis, I don’t really know the rest of them enough to judge anything.

Q: How’s the subjects?

A: Pretty boring. The study of the subjects will only be interesting if the lecturer makes in interesting of if I’m already very into that particular subject.

So while I’m still in the transition mode, please do try to understand my excuses of “having something on” and “busy” because I’m really trying to catch up on some sleep, earn a little money, keep up with my assignments and STILL meeting up with my friends.

Besides, for all the time (1 year?) I’ve had to put up with everyone’s busy-ness. It’s kinda payback time!
