poof

The days are passing really fast with me going to work. But it's good coz i feel productive and useful rather than lazing around and not doing much but sleep and slack. I have avoided doing research for my honours, which will come round to bite me in my ass soon i suspect. Been trying to work on my earrings and accessories stuff, but haven't had much time. I realise that the 5.5 work day thing sucks coz i don't get much time to rest and recuperate to face the onslaught of the following week. Well it's not that bad really, just the lack of sleep during the week which i don't really relish. Well work will end soon, my birthday is coming, everything is fine and dandy. I've been getting a pay raise for every month, so my measly allowance starts to look more like a pay. But i am leaving so, well. Wanted to swim over the weekend but it poured relentlessly yesterday, which was pretty annoying and very much a shame coz i've been wanting to swim for at least 3 weeks already. Well the pool in Safra Mt Faber is undergoing maintenance anyway so perhaps this coming sat i'll get to go there finally and also swim and tan and be healthy.

It's quite amusing that yesterday i posted a comment on someone's blog saying how much my relationship with my mum has improved once i started seeing her more as a friend rather than my mum who lords me around and tries to "teach me" the ways of life. And perhaps it was facilitated by our growing up. Today she does something really annoying to my brother. I got very pissed in fact. Sometimes i think she's just itching for a fight. But anyway everyone bandied around my brother and she had to retreat. But sometimes as parents, as i was reinforced from yesterday's talk, you have to choose the battles you want to fight. Some things are really trivial and is it really worth your mother-son relationship, if the answer is no, then just bite your tongue and leave him be. But it's not always easy i guess. Oh well. But after yesterday's talk on transitions to primary for your special needs kid, i guess i wanna go into the field of a educational psychologist. It seems to fit into what i'm interested partially, the other part is parenting. Well at least getting a little closer to what i really wanna do in psychology. The other option is opening up my own little business. Well i sorta am now but it's not the real thing at the moment, just really small scale.
