Today hasn't been exactly a good day. I didn't sleep well last night, I actually woke up at 2.43am to get a drink. I just kept tossing and turning all night in bed, dreaming about the magazine, what kind of cover designs to put, my workplace. Argh. I want to finish the mag asap so that I can focus on my other worries. Such as what university to go to in the next 2 years. I may have 2 years to decide, but in actual fact, I have a little less than a month to decide.
My parents were very against me going overseas due to the fact that we cannot afford it. I found that tremendously irritating. I really cannot depend on my family anymore the higher I go up. I will have to find a way to finance myself if I want to go overseas. I felt really bitter after that unasked-for tougue lashing that mom gave me for no apprarent reason and I think I will not talk to them about this anymore. I guess it's all up to me to cough out the money. Talk about being bitter all over again just when you thought you found reprive in your life.
For me it's work at work, then at home it's work all over again. Not to only mention that, the flash-rain was so heavy it soaked through my suppositely water-proof bag. I was wet waist-down, dammit why didn't I wear water-proof apparel today. It was miserable and was it my imagination? To think with each step I took, the rain seemed to increase in intensity.
Of course, I have been working on the mag for nearly over a fortnight. But at least today I had a eureka moment. Finally. I got something that I can say is workable.
I'll finish the design by this week, post it out for all of them to decide, by then articles would have started coming in. Maybe by 2nd week of May we can actually see the whole magazine on screen. Then we'll get it printed out, send it to selected lecturers, and find the printing company. =)
I am just so tremendously busy, hopefully after next week, the work load on the ece magazine will ease up abit. And all the hardwork will pay off when we actually get to hold the mag in our sweaty hands.
It's work all the way till mid-May, then we'll see where I'll go from there.
WORK FX WORK!
