The Theory of 21 days..

I told myself not to think bout him. But it keeps coming back from time to time. The only improvement is, i'm not crying for him anymore.. I told myself i had enough of it.

A friend told me that i'll need at least 21 days to get over it. Why 21 days? Why not 10, 11 or 12? Why 21? She never answered me. Guess i'll need to find out myself. Let's see where i'll be after 21 days.

Perhaps this is how it's formulated:

1st 7 days (or the 1st week)
This is "The Mourning Period" where i'll feel anger, upset, guilt and all other negative emotions. Hating both myself and him, blaming all the secandary factors that cost me the break up. Should be going through the crying to bed moments. Sigh..Tough week ahead then..

2nd week (day 8-14)
Time to accept that we've break up. I'll remember all the sweet and painful moments that i've gone through. I guess i will stop hating him at this time, perhaps even loved him back for all the experiences and lifetime lessons. For this, i'll name it
"The Learning and Accepting Period".

3rd Week (day 15-21)
" The Getting Over You Period". I'll finally get over him. I'll live my life better than ever before. This is the period where i finally have the courage to hang out with friends and create new social ties with new people. Time to have fun again!

So. i guess i'll be fine in 3 weeks time.. Hmm.. interesting theory of the 21 days huh?

Road back home -A marriage of accounting, planning, and acting skills

What a jovial mood i'm in. Nothing particular exciting but just felt good, at least until now. Gonna go back home later on a 2 1/2 hours of bus travel... Sigh... Just realized that I've been travelling back home like this for years. During my uni days (hah, sound like it's been so long!), i couldn't afford to travel back home every weekends/month. Too far away and the only transport available is airplane. So, I went back twice or a year, sometimes during holidays, sometimes during term break. Remembering back then, we students are really good in calculating the lowest expenditures to go back home.. Many of us had actually mastered all the required skills (accounting and planning skills) and can easily passed off as travel agents or accountants. We even mastered our acting skills especially to the staffs in airlines booking agency and airports ( it's due to the fact that we are almost certain to bring overweight luggage every time we stepped on an airplane).. The who...

Disabled again..

Today.. is another sad day for me. They just disabled "e-messenger", which ended my pleasure of keeping in touch with friends lately. Sigh.. exactly 14 more days, and I'll be out. Just have to be patient. Had a long talk with my boss. Many things that we've talked through and I appreciate his acceptance over my rather harsh comment. We're more like friends now, rather than him being my boss, or me being his subordinate. Frankly, it's been a long 5 1/2 half months. Unhappy i may seem, but i do learn alot while working here. Strangely, i think i might even missed this place..

School No Fun!

"So, how many homeworks you have today?" "8." "How many done?" "4 more to go, with a spelling tomorrow and a dictation on Friday." "How are you doing today?" Face slammed to the pillow on the floor... "T...i...r....e...d...." Thats the usual conversation little Paul and I have everyday after school. 6, 7, sometimes 10 homeworks per day. Thats what little Paul is having everyday. Today, he cried over the tiredness of having to do so many work. Although he's more on the sensitive side, but still, is this how our education system deal with our kids? And, today, he brought a time table for examination through out the year, which the 1st exam will start on 13th February, 5 days before Chinese New Year. (WTF!!) That means he has to start studying the not-so-familiar words. 22 days into the new year, and he has to worried bout doing good in his exam. What's wrong with the teachers, school and the Ministry of Education itself?...
