Fast paced life

I never realised how fast paced life i had. It has never occurred to me how quick life can past, and how many things i actually am doing within a week. This brings me to another point, it is already week 6 of the 3rd term, and the exams are not far away.

Recently, i have had a china exchange student from Tianjin, by the name of Sam ling, or "ling xiang". i realise how much work i am doing when i explain to him what i do, and the number of tings i have to accomplish within a day. some people realise it, but apparently i dont. i am not really sre whether this is a good sign, cuz it could mean that i enjoy the things i do a lot, and hence do not realise that time is passing when i do stuff. or it could also mean that i have no regard for time and proirities and end up not organising time well.

I do enjoy students council too, though. the constant barrage of projects and things to do, ensures that i have things to do throughout the year. however, it is also kinda distracts me from my work, also, i dont particularly enjoy the frustations and the tension i sometimes feel in council.

The pace of life is just something i have to keep in check more often. if i do not realise how much time i have b4 the exams, i also end up screwing up my results in the end. I admit that i spend a lot of time blogging and i also MSN a lot. this then results me in using this as an excuse like sometimes online i would say i am discussing council stuff.

what can i say? no offence to sam, but i guess he kinda drags me and slows me down. it is kinda ironic as when i am alone, as in before the exchange programme, i would usually spend much time alone, and lamenting on the fact that i do not have much company, yet with him around i feel like i have a lack of personal space and time. I enjoy his company and all, but i need my own space too. maybe it requires balance, i need to have a certain output like maybe some friends i can spout my nonsense to, but i also need to have time where can self reflect. that is what my blog is for.

eugene once said, imagine the world goes at this pace *pitterpatterpitterpatter*, if you go at this pace *pat pat pat* the world wont wait for you.. true, and that is where i know i cannot change the pace of my life, but i need to find more time to keep myself in check and remind myself to slow down, and relax, before i go too far.

Honestly, life is fast paced and, like a roller coaster, has its ups and downs, extreme ups and downs, but just enjoy the thrill of the ride, and do the best to make the ride enjoyable! =)
