when a gotong-royong was initiated here! Lol! Thanks guys!
On another note, exams are starting in 2 days.
One part of me: aiya it's your last semester of exams, not unlike the previous, just chill and sail through it.
Another: IT'S YOUR LAST (EVER) SEMESTER OF EXAMS, WHY NOT PUSH YOURSELF TO THE MAX?!
Always a struggle. Always a balance.
I've been sleeping quite early these days, around 11pm (that is now), and setting my alarm at around 4am.
Yes 4am!!! Because I would snooze it every 10 minutes - till 7 am so this mechanical movement of turning towards the phone and clicking the snooze button goes on for 18 times every morning. Not that I ever remember the first 15 times, which is the whole point. But the last 3 ensures I wake up at 7am sharp.
Crazy I know. But this routine proved effective throughout this semester! Lesser incidents of arriving late/missing lectures!

Anyway today I learned a valuable lesson about living in moderation. And to haha spend more time minding my own business! And to be more mindful to not get too carried away sometimes! Thank you!
**
And out of spontaneity, I had dinner with Jian dearest and Ken!!! Thank you so much for the dinner and for the watch, Ken! :) A hearty catch-up, always warm <3 you guys! An unusually long train ride home, 1 hour and 10 minutes. Witnessed three "mischievious" scenes - by 3 different people, boarding and departing the train at different stations, at 3 different times. Ah - train rides. Made me thought hard, about them, the people sneering around them, and things I learn today. Moments of reflections.
**
I'm kinda in a semi-worried-semi-it'll-all-work-out mental state. But I must say my stress-ball (or rather anti-stress ball) is my loyal companion during study. People in the library who noticed probably think it's queer to be squeezing the ball while studying (and sometimes letting it roll off resulting in me bending under the table through the many pairs of legs to retrieve it). Oh and not to forget STARBURST gummies. Instant happiness/mood-lifter! Placebos haha.
Exams exams. You're finally here. Let's do it!
Guess I'll sleep now.
Good night!

I still cannot understand your snoozing for 1-3hours habit. It seems like self-torture to me. Waking up suddenly the first time is much less painful.
Hahahaha.
Doesn't it feel good to wake up but know that you can still sleep and know it's safe that you won't be late?
I can't wake up suddenly the first time, unlike u. Stronger will power to sleep lol.
Well, the quality of sleep after snoozing is not pure enough for me. It's like REM sleep or less than that not deep sleep so I don't feel rested. But that's just me. Good for you though whatever works =D
Agree with Sara! Snoozing for like 10-20 minutes I can understand lah, but from 4am?? Seriously. Sleep is too precious to be sacrificed like that.
