Frozen in a picture,

Finished 《交换星夜的女孩I》 on my bed last night. Actually I dread reading books that come in parts! My excitement and anticipation were gradually built up, and then I realised that the second episode is not even out yet. What a spoiler -.- I think I must quickly finish Ahchew's Man and Wife which I'm already halfway through. I always thought I would spend half of my awake time in front of the television after exams. I was wrong. I did anything but watched television. Shows that dramas these days don't have much appeal. To me at least. But I do enjoy lying on bed and read a book. It's just that many a times I put myself in the story and become too affected by the ending, be it happy or sad.

It's considerably a short day today. Yet I'm so drained. I came home and collapsed on the bed for nearly three hours. Can't imagine how I will survive in days to come when the workload piles up. 白老师 came over to my desk today and said, "年轻时拼搏固然好，但也要为将来保留一点精力。”I don't consider myself as being very busy yet. This is nothing compared to the stress I grappled with last semester. But I know very soon, I will be burning the candle on both ends. Being occupied is good:)

I'm beginning to record my daily expenditure again. I feel like a miser now. It's quite painful to do this everyday especially when you realise you don't really have a lot to spend per day. But I guess I will feel more disciplined and constrained this way.

Max texted yesterday. I miss him!

Edits: I think I feel a little upset about people not replying me when I actually try to squeeze out a free slot to ask them out for a catch up.
