____Halftime
I am but an exhausted fighter
Losing in many areas, many fields
Battered and torn by the war with life
Equivocating with reality and ideals
For the people still back in NTU, it is the start of the one week term break. It provides the undergraduates a slight rest from the hustle and bustle of school but for the more knowing, it is a wake up call for those who have not been making the best use of earth time.
This entry, though is a halftime report for me and also a reminder of where I should be and want to be. I think it is good to be provided with a 6 mth break from school so that there can be a comparison between the efficiency of time spent in school and back at home.
At the start of my period of industrial attachment, there were many things I wanted to do. Apart from the more important gaining knowledge of working life and also expertise in my field of study, I wanted to fix up my home a little and hopefully improve the quality of living. I view it as a step to prepare for future living.
So, three months into my IA, and besides clearing out some rubbish and buying new rubbish, nothing much is done. In terms of work, the progress is worse. I seriously need to buck up and perform better. This means lesser late nights, and more efficient time usage.
I MUST CUT DOWN ON TIME SPENT ON THE STUPID COMPUTER.
A big realisation is the amount I spend on the computer doing nothing but minesweeping and playing some stupid chinese chess programme. (And of course, reading MSN nicks and waiting for people to come online to chat with.) How dumb is that?
I need some direction. I need the energy that my Dad had. I need the strength to overcome the barriers in my life so that I can bring myself into the next chapter - into the next dawn. A sort of enlightenment that mentally and physically bring my performance to the next level.
And so, things I must do now for the rest of my IA time.
- Find out the things that is curbing the progress of the modeling project.
- Fix those things!
- Train, train, train to prepare for IHG soccer.
- Meet up with friends.
- Decide on what I want to do for my FYP and discuss with seniors.
I need drive. Sometimes we must take the wheel in our hands and drive.
