Day 125: 8/3/2018
Waking up on time at 7.30, I then did not work or even try to force myself to. Though at the back of my mind, I knew that I had to finish the research method section I have been working tirelessly for the past 5 days and it was due today. But at the same time I did not know how much was left undone. After all, I decided to let myself enjoy the morning hours into the foolish non-sense conversations with P’Gluay. He told me about how I talked in my sleep as if I had so much to worry and it affected me even when I was unconscious.
One thing I realized as soon as I woke up today was my neck became sprained and I knew right away that I must have ground my teeth so hard while sleeping. If this happened two years ago or so while my physical health was much worse, it must have been worse. Lucky enough, now that I am healthier, despite the sprained neck I feel, everything else in life still functions normally and I still feel fresh and energetic most of the time.
Still, I did not rush myself but slowly do things at my own pace. Nonetheless, something was certain, I needed to go to school today, first to print a document and second to finish writing the research method section of my proposal. There I went arriving there around 2 which was late compared to my usual arrival time at the school or my office. Also, I decided to stay at the library as opposed to the PhD student office at the Science Park. I needed a change and a shared space would be a great alternative for the day! It was a perfect choice actually since it is now summer and less students are on campus and library has been deserted. I stayed there, printed the document, read, write, emailed, and chatted. Still, I would say that the entire time was relatively productive.
Hours later, I decided to stay longer and that I would leave before sunset or around 8 pm. Then I went down in search for food, went right back up at the desk, had a quick dinner, continued working and finished the section eventually (well, 90ish per cent now). :)
At the end of the day, I left the library around 8 and decided last minute while riding my bicycle back home that I should stop by a Chinese grocery store. I had a quality relaxing time riding the bicycle home knowing that I have done well today albeit some being distracted at times.
The reward after a long hard working day was the stunning summer sunset. I was completely mesmerized by how the Mother nature helped me to celebrate my productive day. Thank you….. :)
