Late Night Musings.

It's been only two weeks since campus reopened but I feel like months have passed wtf.
Lately, every waking moment has been filled with things to do, problems to settle and meetings to attend.
From the second I jolt out of bed till the minute I flop back in, I've been bustling about, working and generally being kept busy till the routine goes numb. Even though a class might end at noon, I've learnt not to expect nap breaks nor the slightest chance of going back to my hostel room.
Cause in the last minute, something's bound to crop up and we almost always have to run off again.
But other than the lack of sleep, I reproach nothing else.
Sometimes being caught up in hectic schedules make me happy, cos it feels productive.

Also! We get to do fun stuff like the videoshoot we had a few days ago  :)


Basically what we did was camho throughout the entire session hahaha.



Doesn't the theme look so nice and pastelly? 

Now, in our final year and very possibly the final semester, all of us have these crazy urges to experience everything and document as much as we can. So I especially treasure moments like these.

These days, even with crazy packed schedules, we managed to fit in a rendezvous or two. :D
First, the early dimsum trip last week!
Though we've been to Ipoh countless times, this was the first time that we actually got to try the famous dimsum restaurants that people always rave about. At last we ended up eating in two places haha cause we were greedy and wanted to try  more after eating a little in the first restaurant. Wasn't cheap though but it was worth the trip cause waking up in the morning and leaving for Ipoh felt so good!
It was a temporary escape for all of us, where we pretended that we had the whole day to chill and it was an awesome, stress-free morning.



But the cruel truth was.. after the breakfast we had to rush straight back to Kampar again and get to work on campaign preparation stuff and attend more meetings. Haih, what to do? This is what you get in final year fml.


Then there was the AV/PR Noisy Kids gathering steamboat!


It was fun to hang out with them again after so long! Still remember how we'd always hang out with them on the weekends during our internships. But now since we're all back in campus, the AV vs PR difference becomes more obvious.. We're the slogging workaholics with no time to slack, while they're the happening people who can ONZ anywhere, anytime. Whaii    T____T


And recently Celyn's moved back to Westlake again so we've been meeting up more often for dinners and catching up with each other  :)

So far lectures have been going great and it seems like we can still cope with the so-called killer syllabus, but it's still too early to tell. Campaign is slowly killing all of us, with late nights working on stuff and tension high in the air. But everyone's coping, or so it seems.

Some issues have cropped up during these weeks, mostly personal but have already been resolved. Through it all I've come to learn and understand a few things.. As we grow and mature, many things become inconsequential. But what falls into that category depends on your evaluation of what matters most to you.
What will you allow yourself to forgo? How your life pans out isn't entirely reliant on fate, but is largely affected by your decisions and actions. I find it hard to grasp the dynamics of these relationships, the thoughts of some and principles of others, oftentimes.

I want to cuddle up in a cozy window seat, have a good book in hand and a hot chocolate on the other.
Daydreams like this make me want to escape the clutches of this stressful reality.
When can life give us a break? Soon, I hope.
