Out of Touch
right..so this is the second week of exams and i must confess that i'm indeed not used to seeing my undergrad friends mugging for exams and complaining about stress and the lack of time and sleep....well, because I dont have exams this semester....
what i'm also not used to is the fact that i've been in uni everyday although semester has ended and i'm not used to the fact that i've to continue working at times like this...times like this referring to exam period and the imminent coming of sem holidays...=(
when my undegrad friends finish their exams, they will be free to go and play while i'll be loaded with tons of work cause i'll be marking exam papers! i'll be marking 2 subjects...not really complainign about that cause i know i will earn lots of cash from that...haha! but the thought of not being able to go out with them as often as i used to....it's kinda sad lar...
on a more serious note, ever since i started PhD, i've been asking myself whether I've grown to become out of touch of what undergrad students go through now...sometimes i just feel i cant connect with my undergrad frens ...sometimes i just feel i dont understand them...and sometimes i think they dont understand me...
Sometimes when i think about the times that i had with them that arent really possible now, i just let out a huge sigh....it's sad....
A random reflection of the state of mind...here's what you get =)
