tumultuous seas
————————–
and so, NDP is finally over. its been one heck of a journey and despite all the missing weekends and late nights, i can’t say i regret being a part of it. it’s truly been an honour to be a part of this experience during my time as a NSF: after all i probably won’t be able to be a part of another parade ever. unless something really strange happens to my life.
i miss the feeling of being on a stage. admittedly, carrying the colours isn’t much of a performance, but there’s something about an audience that just makes you smile. the quickening of the heartbeat, the applause and the feeling of accomplishment. i can’t wait to be part of that sometime, hopefully in uni.

today was a maximally crappy day though, despite the happiness(?) of being free of NDP after many long months. the fact that i already had to go back to work was already a bitch. and then, having to miss the movie and forgo the 4 tickets that we booked over the weekend just because of stupid work i had to do. i don’t know why i care when the people whose job it is to care don’t seem to. perhaps its time to take some advice and learn some balance. after all, the 20 days of off and 10 days of leave oughta give me plenty of opportunity to balance work and play. or even rest. that is, of course, assuming i manage to use up al those days.
