holiday!

Yes! Finally i feel more recharged. I've been feeling fatigue recently, eversince i come back from Australia. I guess it's because i didn't sleep much when i was there and no time to catch up with sleep after i come back! So here i go, with all the problems that come along with it: weightsss gain (Sniff*Sniff*), lethargy and all the cravings for heavy and fatty food. Oh no~ and i have skipped my yoga class for 3 weeks. Bad bad me.

I actually planned to go to labuan to visit su yee and her son this long weekend. In the end, i cancel my plan because i think i should do something about my health and my body. First thing i do is get more sleep. For 2 consecutive nights, i sleep for 8 hours full. Now i feel so much better, more ready to do exercise. Next step will be incorporate exercise back into my life.

I'll be going to KK for shopping trip in 3 weeks time. Hopefully i can shed some pounds before that so easier for me to find new clothes.

In 2 weeks time, i'll be in Temburong for 4 days. Can't wait for it but at the same time, i'm surfing around to find information about avoiding mosquitoes and bed bugs (not sure if bed bug is still a problem there). I'm bringing an insect repellent made from Citronella oil and also bringing Eucalyptus oil with me. I've read that both are natural insect repellents. But i also read that Eucalyptus oil is an ineffective bed bug repellent. Oh well.. just try my best.

These days i notice that i prefer to spend time with my students than with my colleagues. With my colleagues, there is an age gap. After all, i'm in the same age group with most of my students. So i find it more relaxing and easier when talking with them. I am very thankful to have this group of students and also very responsible HOD. I guess that's what makes my job life easier than a few of my young colleagues. That's why i didn't get that mad by their jealousy. Not to be boastful, i really think i have the qualities that can make people go jealous sometimes, which also makes me insecure because it's too good to be true.

These days, due to my laziness and tiredness, i left out a lot of things and people. Now that i'm feeling more rested, i must try to catch up. I love to stay connected with my family and loved ones. I feel bad when i don't know what's going on in their life. Although i may not take any part, it's always sweet to keep in touch. I am contradicting myself, i guess. I love keeping in touch, but i definitely not keen in facebooking and net chatting. Emailing.. maybe. That's why i am so glad that me and the old ladies do blogging.

Nowadays, my work is a bit busier than usual. I appreciate it. Sometimes i may complain about it but most of the time, i am thankful to have the chance to get busy. To get busy means i can learn something, be it time management skills, stress-handling skills or the correct procedures of doing things with the government.

Today, since it's a holiday, i didn't bring back any work when i come home on thursday. I am so happy i made the right decision. When the work is left at school, my mind naturally won't be thinking about it. So i can really give my mind a break. I'm the type who will give my full effort when at school or at work place and when i reach home, i only want to unwind and relax, and do something which has nothing to do with my work. Complete isolation works well for me.
Also, today i finally have the time to sit down and read the books i have bought long time ago but didn't have the chance to enjoy. Holiday.. so nice~
