A friend asked why have the post entries slowed down to a trickle. Well, so, here it is.

Days lately have been uneventful. The recent September holiday is short and hectic; so much so I don't feel rested enough. Had to conduct remedial extra lessons from Monday to Wednesday, went back to work again on Friday for work review, and in between, went for courses as usual, picked up knitting, showered the dog, walked the dog, and (supposedly) attended 4 weddings; 2 of which I declined, because it's my birthday date. All these in one week and, poof! One week of holiday is gone!

Anyway, lately it's been getting increasingly difficult to find topics to blog about. Maybe it's because life is getting kind of routinised, now that it's my 2nd year into the workforce. Or maybe it's because work has been all-consuming; I hardly have time to sit down, internalise, reflect, and think things through. Or maybe, discretion is part and parcel of the job. Nowadays I find myself thinking twice - sometimes, thrice - before blogging /facebook status-ing about something. Or maybe I'm simply just getting duller! I CERTAINLY HOPE NOT!

I miss being challenged. Miss the times of being a student. Miss the times when I can read books, shop for groceries, do some cooking / baking, meet up friends for outings / gatherings, getting involved in thoughts-provoking, meaningful conversations, or just doing anything that is mentally-stimulating. I don't know, but my brain feels so mash-y now. I feel like an ignorant airhead; a leaky and empty vessel. Going to work, setting papers, marking papers, teaching the same old topics over and over again. Uneventful. So dead. ARGH!

Anyway, on a sidenote, things are a little unbelievably crazy jaw-dropping right now. Just the other day, I was asking - in all seriousness - a friend if there's anyone nice whom she'd like to recommend. And I just found out (yesterday) that her husband sent out SMSes with, apparently, a photo attached. 

Now I feel like crawling into a hole and HIDE!
