It’s the second week of the 2009, and I can honestly say I have been doing a pretty okay job with keeping up with the resolution. I’m thinking positive thoughts, even chanting ‘I love Monday’ to myself this morning. I’m sticking to the schedule I made for myself (most of the time). Oh, and I eat my vegetables now (though I stuffed myself silly last Saturday, eating dim sum, and I still don’t exercise). I’m writing almost daily now, even if only for fifteen minutes. So far so good.

On a different note, school is going to eat me alive. Seriously. Our first test is this Wednesday, and more will follow. I still have a scene and a half to write on that script, an English assignment to be done, and practical exams worries. It takes all of my will power to not just toss them aside and play Wedding Dash 2 instead. Mini games are so addicting.

Anyway, I’ve been doing some thinking. Suddenly I’m not sure if I want to study English Lit in college. I’ve already picked it for my last choice for NTU, but what am I going to do if I get accepted for it? Don’t get me wrong, I think I’d be happy there, but what kind of career would I have? I still have my doubts about my writing skills, and in my head I know I can’t rely too heavily on it. I wouldn’t turn down a chance to get into NTU, but it depends on what my parents decide. They’ve been more accepting about my writing for the last few years, but I don’t think they’d be thrilled if I study it for my major.

*sighs* I worry too much, don’t I?

It’s only the second day of school, and already the assignments are piling up. Ugh. February’s especially looking to be rather gloom, or at least crazily exhausting, since it’s the month where most of the practical exams are going to take place. >_<

Oh, and guess what? The channeling-Mother-Teresa thing isn’t working at all. I don’t even want to talk about it – it’ll give me migraine – but let’s just say when it comes to group assignments, today is just not my lucky day. It’s pretty good, with the girls joking around and me actually getting some work done, but the script is still waiting to be written and I’ve yet to study for the ‘big test’. Not to mention I want to work on my writing but know that I should put it aside in favors of my academic stuffs because I don’t want to fail my parents again.

But you know what? I think I might pull through. I will make it through; barely, maybe, with many tears, sweat, and blood, but I will make it.

After many poking and proding, here’s my official list of more do-able resolutions:
1. Think positive.
2. Live healthier à start eating right and exercising routinely (maybe once a week).
3. Get into NTU or Melbourne (Melbourne is good, but NTU is my first choice atm).
4. Stick to the schedules I make for myself, aka start to actually use a planner and not just own one.
5. Graduate with flying colors.
6. Complete SAYS Epic Challenge 2009 (which consists of completing my original novel and a fanfiction).
7. Become a better beta reader and reviewer.
8. Learn to cook.
