Herbal Soups
10.27PM. Having reheated herbal spare rib soup for dinner and continuing on my blog-reading binge.
Stayed up late last night, first to study for a midterm test today, then to help M with his SOP for the application. Doing that once again made me realise how much I still have to work on delivering constructive feedback and corrections in a gentle manner, even as much as it made me realise how much I've improved from before. Either that, or maybe I just know I really like this boy and didn't want to hurt him. Nobody likes going through their own work and being told this won't do, that won't do.
Nevertheless, it made me so grateful once again for the academic rigour that I've unconsciously gone through the past 4.5 years. It's good to know that time has not been wasted and that I have improved on *something* after going through university. Sometimes you come out at the end of the tunnel and you're not even sure why you entered it in the first place.
2.5 hours of sleep, waking up to unfortunate incident and having to do laundry helluva early at 8 in the morning, and then being a few minutes late and missing the (small) quiz I studied for did not maketh a good morning. Coming home for lunch with M did, even though he was SO incoherent and groggy on the phone haha. Taking a nap with a very tired boy who skips class with you helps too. Then well, going for the midterm which turns out very difficult despite having studied for it, just puts the day back in balance.
Having a rather heavy first day since a long while, and what with the lack of sleep, it's all taking a toll on me. Cancelled language exchange tomorrow because I already know with two days of lack of sleep and period and aching shoulders would not help me get up early.
Tomorrow's going to be a ME day. Hurrah.
Alright back to blog-reading binge, swallowing DIY posts, and drinking this lovely homey soup. I'm only half waiting for M, I promise. Kind of.
