Plans plans plans

I love them, I'm addicted to planning, and I swear by to-do lists.

But recently I'm swamped over by the amount of planning I need to do. It is much easier when you have a million things unchecked, because all you need to do then is to decide which to do first. But when you are facing the expanse of a 3 month holiday in front of you, things become different. To some people it doesn't matter, but to me, it should.

How many holidays have I let slip by, not being able to accomplish what I envisioned? I really hope not to make that mistake again. So far the first 3 days of my holidays were fairly productive, and I am immensely pleased with what I have achieved thus far. But I have this nagging feeling that the productivity won't last, and I really do dread that.

I've been sending out applications for part time jobs in hope of landing something that could fund my shopping addiction. I'm pretty broke now and my bank account balance has decreased drastically. That isn't comforting. And the fact that I won't be having any income for the month of November does not do much to cheer my spirits. But I am glad I took one month off -- I really am. It gave me time to focus on my studies and channel everything I have into it. I never noticed before, but I do now, that one day really makes a difference. Having a Saturday free really gives me a lot more freedom. But I like my job (just maybe not when I'm overwhelmed with assignments, deadlines and my hair loss problem, but more of that later) and I need the paycheck.

Now that I've been financially independent (in terms of shopping and my personal purchases only, haha! I still rely on my parents to feed me and fund my educational expenses which is more than I earn each month sometimes) it will really kill me to beg for shopping money. And they shouldn't even give it to me anyway. So I hope, wish and pray that I could get any kind of part time jobs. Who wants to learn to play the piano? I'm patient, nice and free. And I have coached a student from a fail to a merit (Grade 3).

I plan to purchase an instrument too in due time. Everything does revolve around money, sadly. I am determined to make it big in future so financial matters will no longer be a hindrance for me. We'll see :)

Have a great weekend! I will be enjoying myself for sure ;)

External Review Checked, Completed and Done With!

Each time I post, my semester has came to an end. Well there you go, the hectic life of an Interior Architecture student. My 3 month holidays has just begun, and my initial excitement wore off pretty quickly. After our final drawing submission on Tuesday morning, I went out with ze collegemates for a hardcore karaoke session. Guess what? We sang for so long that we got tired of it and left early. A total first for me.

Yesterday was pretty relaxing. I just started playing The Sims Social! It was on the top of my holiday to-do list. Other things I'd checked yesterday is preparing my resume for my internship application, which I'm still crossing my fingers about. Chances aren't quite likely but if you don't try, you'll never know right? I'm taking my chances.

Today was more eventful. I mapped out my plans for December already, settling my class schedules and taking a trip to bandroom and the library. The 2009 concert video makes me feel nostalgic. And as a result of my trips today, I now have a purpose in life. A direction. Something to do! JOY!

I guess I just can't sit still and not do anything. Virgos and their high expectations of themselves, tsk tsk. But to make my quest for relaxation easier, I have borrowed a dozen Danielle Steel books from the library! 12 books for me to slowly devour. Mmmm-hmmmm :)

My holidays are looking up! :D

Toodles~
