Mindless working

My schedule has never been so hectic before. I feel that sometimes, people pack themselves with so much obligations that they are unable to find time for anything else at all. That's what is happening to me precisely. My life currently revolves around work and i really mean work only, turning me into a lifeless machine and at times, reducing me to the point of incapacity.

Mindless working has not proved to be without any meaning at all. I manage to derive many satisfactions and fulfillment, and it feels good because i know that i am making myself useful. I have made some new friends, gained many invaluable experiences and learnt many new things along the way. Of course, there is still the joy and ecstasy of receiving the pay slips for all the hard work that one puts in. I really need the income to help finance my university tuition fees and also some courses that i have signed up.

Another huge change in my life is that i have started to drive to work every morning and it is not any ordinary car mind you! It is an old silvery toyota pickup! That's because my dad is a carpenter and i think it's really cool to drive a pickup as compared to a car as it requires more skills. However, i must confess that there is nothing good about driving a truck. The truck's tail is long and you have to constantly bear in mind that you have to make a wider turn in order to avoid the risk of hitting its tail. Once, i was maneuvering the pickup in a narrow carpark and i scratched its tail against a pillar because i didn't make a wide enough turn. That was really noobish driving and i still feel bad about it although it has been weeks since the freak incident. Yet, my dad didn't really reprimand me and told me that driving is like learning a skill, it will be good only with sufficient practice.

Jobs aside, i have tried to make time to pursue my own stuff despite my heavy workload. I am glad that i have passed my M5 test despite my ignorance. Well, i don't think that i should deserve to pass as i havn't really revised for it. Haha. Gonna start on M7 soon :). As for jap, i have completed basic 1 course, gonna embark on basic 2. Ganbatte!
