Muhhh.................

I'm about to leave on a trip to Busan now with Sami, Jo, Selina and a few other people (Sami's friends). Rather excited! But I'm afraid I can't enjoy it 100% because I have a lot of work to do.........

As you know.. I'm a Teacher Assistant for one of my classes.. and also a team leader in that class. We had our first mock presentation on Friday and I could say it was a success. My team is dedicated and hardworking, but I fear that they lack the enthusiasm that I have for the subject + topic. Perhaps I'm taking it too seriously.. Perhaps I'm not. Thinking about it, I wasn't this hard working last semester - when I would rather sleep in class or play Pokemon on my phone... Maybe it was because of Sami's words on my FB status last time... when she told me to give it all I've got for assignments so I can prove to people and to myself what I'm capable of, and bring glory to God by being accountable in my studies... Maybe... or it could be because I want to prove to people what I'm capable of for my own benefit - to measure myself against others so I can have a better outlook of myself and my potential future...
Whatever the reason is, it won't save me from a very torturous next few weeks at uni... 2 presentations next week, synopsis due and a summary of other groups' presentations as part of my TA work.. On top of this, mid semester exams are the week after, and undoubtedly I will soon begin to feel the usual stress... But it's okay...

Anyway it's 5.15am and I have to walk down to the station soon. =].

All is packed and it's a wet morning... Shame...

Ugh... I've spent a lot of money.... Transferring another $1500 from my savings to my account because I spent unwisely in the past 2 months... Sigh..... Oh well...

Thankful: Good progress with assessments. A deserved weekend away with my closest friends in Korea.

Prayerful: Safe travel and good rest.

Dangers: MONEY.
