fm thinking abt going home...
today is saturday mar 26, 4.15pm EST.
im still at duke... sitting in a study room alone with all our stuff messily placed around me. darling is upstairs in her room, napping. she's been so tired, with her hectic classes, writing assignments, french quizes/orals, more boring classes (i can back her up on that). not been sleeping enough. not to add that having me around undoubtedly bogged her life down even more. sighz...
Sun 27-Mar-05 Raleigh (RDU) Depart 6:15 am Terminal C
to San Diego (SAN) Arrive 10:57 am Terminal 1.
im flying back tmr liaoz. la jolla, my home away from home. =( as with everyone else, no one likes school to start. well, not many. i certainly don't. as most would have known, winter 05 has been a bad quarter for me. results are out, though i certainly didnt do my very best (to perhaps what a* and the rest of the ratpack would think), i can definitely survive on what i got. what u get is what u put in. this saying is rarely wrong. life is not only abt studies and grades. there are other matters of higher importance to me than grades, and i wont regret my decision to do so.
Spring Quarter 2005.
this is gonna be the MOST hectic quarter im gonna experience. i signed up for 2 lab attachments, one in a plant bio lab, which is counted as a coursework (Independent Studies), the other in the VA Hospital on parathyroid hormone-related protein, which I am volunteering for. both will take up all of my weekday afternns, from 2pm till 6pm. this is all in addition to my usual courseload. wondering if i shld take 3 or 4 other graded classes? Pass/NoPass? sighz... will i survive, will i die? que sara sara, what will be will be. the futures not for ours to see. que sara sara, what will be will be.
Summer 2005
going home. my real home this time. singapore. not that its gonna be fun. lab attachment during most of the 2 or so months that ill be back, mid/late-june till mid-sept. but will i be going straight home after my finals? do i have money to travel around? should i fly back to duke to 陪 my darling for a week in her summer school? do i have money left over to buy an ipod to relieve my severe lack of hdd space on my laptop? arghz.
now.
accomplished little this break. slept little, ate a lot. no exercise, again. completed the frame for the jigsaw puzzle that we did over winter break. formatted my laptop, updated darling's. completed revamping this site. fun? not really. going for classes with darling and keeping her awake to finish her work. but it was certainly time well-spent. to shadow her across sch and seeing the professsors she's been complaining abt. the place, the atmosphere. i can now understand more, as she did. which couple doesnt want to spend all their time together doing nothing of consequence and watching sunsets and star-studdled skies? why wouldnt we want to do the same?
but again, reality is cruel. hearts break at separations, hearts melt at reunions.
i can only pray that reality will go easy on us two. till we meet again...
