destress stress

The accruals problem has got the better of me and my patience is running short on it. after working on it for the past 3 days I am faced with a big question mark on how the 790+k came about. There’s a missing piece which I am struggling to locate. It’s been frustrating and i seem to be trying to grapple something in the dark. I need someone to guide me through this, just like I was on my wits’ end trying to find a mentor during my obu research.

No one. There is no one here who’ll stretch out a hand to help. You are very much on your own.

I find solace and comfort from having company of dearie and running. I just rant on and on about the day’s frustration..and going for runs helps give me mind a break.

There’s a assignment to be handed in by Friday and I am facing problems to sit down and do my reading. Much compilation of notes is required but I am no where there yet.

Everyone has their share of stress and frustration..and it’s a choice we can make to be defeated by it or be over and above it. I have a whole long list of assignments, revisions, work..etc.. waiting for me. the list is looongggg.. work is not always at its best either..because I’m like a garbage collector doing everything.. and investigation work is sometimes crap work with no leads and no guide.

Despite it all, I am girding myself to face to challenge. what is the fun of life if everything simply falls from the sky? There’ll be no sense of achievement if everything is easy within reach.

I hate assignments..i hate the tons of reading I’ve got to do.. yet when I look at it.. it’s during these times growth thrives. A person is not strengthened unless he/she is once broken. We won’t know how fast we can run until we try running fast.

I can very well identify with a kin who faces stress in her own realm of life too. my word to her is to not let stress get the better of you. take stress by it’s weakest spot and tell it that you are over and above it. stress is created by ourselves and can very well be overcome by ourselves too.

Do whatever makes you happy..have a long bath..go out for a walk..eat your favourite food..or talk to someone.. anything. After that, stand tall and brace yourself to face the challenges again.

For me, I’m going for a slow long run. After that, it’ll be assignment and reading for me. haha. can’t run away from it!

on a final note..i hope dearie gets a place at nus to do his masters!! i think the learning bug rubbed off onto him! =)
