Well, the holidays haven't been that much of a splash for me. If anything, it was pretty depressing, not that school can kill the depressing-ness of it all. At least I'll feel more productive and existent if there's school, though.
So basically, I didn't really exist during this holiday, besides to my family. Haven't been going out because I have little friends and my closer friends are committed to other stuffs like their final year project or internship. No job, no community involvement stuffs (as if I ever had anything), and basically I've been rotting away.
I still had my tuition, though. It's not really a relief because each week I just get more and more pissed. I finally talked to the child's parents about his attitude, not because I wanted them to punish him, but because I feel like a freaking useless tutor and felt the need to justify my uselessness.
Went out for family dinners at Dian Xiao Er and tze char. Grandma came over last Sunday.
Once per week, or somewhere around there, had dinner with Guang Yi, Jt, Wei Jian and/or Joshua once. Chinese doctor every 3 days. That is how the clinic works.
And then there was the DTVM Awards. My duty was an iPad Manager, which sounds quite cool. Basically Avelin and I just did tedious things like downloading an app for viewing videos, rearrange apps, close notifications, and stuffs that I can no longer remember. The night itself was quite atmospheric. Half of my class managed to churn out a performance at the last minute, which kind of worked out fine.
Also had class outing. Sakura with DTVM/02 + Esman and Chee Teng :) I ignored the fact that I couldn't drink too much coffee and just went for it anyway. Great lunch, and quite a relaxing session of chilling and chatting.
Today, went to roller blade at Bishan Park with Guang Yi and Joshua. Felt like a little bit of freedom. Haven't been so tired for so long, it's fun. Also learned a little about longboarding from Joshua. Shall steal his longboard to try out more often.
For the rest of the rotting time, I had been watching lots of movies and shows, playing some games, and reading some books. Feel that as a writing student, it's a given that I should be exposed to lots of all these things. I've fell in love with 'The Office' (US show) and 'The Lorien Legacy' (book series about aliens).
Been playing Ni No Kuni, which was pretty fine, though I kind of got bored of it and went back to Dark Souls. The intensity just came back all of a sudden.
Maybe I should visit one friend in his school/work per day. Refuse to work. I just want to spend the holiday nicely :/
