I’m currently at MacDonalds, tapping on their facilities to do some blogging. It’s rather cool that the whole Singapore is getting wired up, it makes things so convenient anywhere, everywhere.

Taking a break from the long haul of physics revision, allow me to once again bore you with my daily updates.

How interesting could a day begin and end during the exam period. Time spent could be nothing more than studying and more studying.

Starbucks@Novena proved to be quite a good place for mug hards, with the rather quiet atmosphere, and the aroma of the coffee, giving some perks to the monotonous studying.

They had decent tables and chairs, with power plug for my notebook. Couldn’t ask for anything more than that.

I was bored after awhile. Spot the difference

Yes, my drink from a piping hot one turned icy cold at the end. This shows that I’ve been sipping real slow, because that’s my passport for the day.

The coffee had managed to keep me awake, till now.

On another note, i realised that these burn outs are making me unhealthy. My body symptoms shows it all. My sensitive scalp has started to peel once again, this only happens when i lead some irregular lifestyles. Like staying up late, and inconsistent food intake.

This studying period has decreased my workout time greatly. Its been a long time since i put on my running shoes. For that, it will take some time before i hit back my prime again after A’s.

After A’s, after A’s.. My mind’s all revolving around the events that’s going to happen after it. Though i know it’s not the best time to think about it now. Sometimes, its good to let the mind run wild before capturing it back to concentration, unless you want to see a psychotic Daryl being drowned in notes and more notes.

Studying can really make someone grow fat. Its just eating and sitting and eating and sitt… Those brain and arm movements aren’t going to burn that much of calories from your body. One way i’ve tried was to eat little but take small bites, SMALL bites in between break time. Eating too full will result one to become more lethargic, having no mood to continue studying and meet the zee monster. Coffee is too a good companion, especially if you are caffeine addictive.

My dad’s like finally back from India once again. 3 months flown by just in a tick. Well, i can’t be sure if his presence will add to more pressure to me, having to do well for A’s, but one thing for sure would be that the house would be more lively with one more person. Got to treasure the time left with the family before entering NS, though i know it’s pathetically little. With me always out, my sister having her O Levels now and my brother and mum busy with their own stuffs, its quite difficult to get everyone together.

The atmosphere of a whole family gathering together is something that is not attainable with other group of people, no matter how close you are with them. That’s the power of kinship, the blood and bonds that run in us.

On a happier note, my dad brought back more merchandise from Adidas, Nike..

I guess that’s about all for today, back to more burnouts with the books and notes.

Till then,

all the best for the O’Level kids meanwhile, before it’s our turn to shine!
