Today's a stark contrast to yesterday's heavy mood. Perhaps the workload has been a little too much to grapple with lately. But yes, it's a simple day today and I am really, really contented.
The day started with a lecture which I wasn't really listening to. I was dozing off the whole time and frankly was waiting for the end of it. But lunch was great with a bunch of friends. Like Mic said, it's been some time since we lunched together in such a big group. I don't exactly like being in a big group all the time but maybe I need that number recently because most of the time I find myself alone while rushing my readings or assignments. And so I am thankful.
I had managed to finish my book review in 45 minutes and I really thought it was badly done. At a risk of getting a scolding, I went to see LL for consultation thereafter.
Phew! He seemed to be in a good mood, and there of course, I came out of his office, unscathed ;)
Yanli and I rushed down to JJ to visit mainly Dr. Yee and other teachers. I admit, though, that my main purpose was to reminisce the old times by revisiting the various details in the school. It was still that barely ventilated and yellowish concourt, that seemingly endless four-hundred metres running track, and that sky that ever seemed so cloudy, but only when looked at on the running tracks. Nowhere else. Not to forget, before we left I stole a glance of that stretch to the porch which I didn't manage to walk today since we were in a rush to leave. That stretch where we met, again. After 4 years. Maybe I will come back again soon. I had missed it so much. Some say, it is not wise to live in the past. However, I think as time passes, I have learnt to live in it in a more positive manner (or perhaps simply because I am in good mood today) than before, so I might just continue to live in it and with it.
