We say time flies, but there are weeks and days when it doesn’t seem like it’ll ever be over. This is one of those weeks. The week before Chinese New Year holidays. The week before paradise- El Nido. After going last year, it is definitely a dream come true to be able to go again. After this time, I honestly have no idea when I will even get the chance to go and who with.
Every minute of the day, I tell myself.. there are only so many days left until we leave, so hang on! But it’s hard to maintain a level of awaken-ness and alertness at school. It has been exhausting, school haven’t been the most friendly and one of my classes today were definitely enjoying my crankiness. I wanted to let everyone know how horrible and cranky I was feeling, but why burden others when they might be having a great day?
When things seem to go wrong, and time seem to be moving in snail pace. Take a deep breath and try to relax. You are not alone, there are many others experiencing the same thing you are. It might take a simple song to cheer you up, it might be a text message, it might be a friend around the corner or even a short nap.
Refresh yourself, look on the bright side and know that someone, somewhere out there is thinking of you.
