So much to deal

I HAVE SO MUCH SCHOOLWORK TO DEAL WITH IT'S CRAZY

Pardon me for the excessive use of caps, but this is how I feel right now. Can you feel my desperation seeping out from the caps? I have SO much work that I have no time for anything. It is hard to even join my family for lunch or dinner. For eg, I have a meeting at 11.30am and 10+pm tomorrow. It feels like I'm just living for the free one or two days I have after meeting a deadline, before another deadline beckons. If I have to live life like that, I would say my life sucks. 

I can't wait to break out of this cycle. I have no time to meet L. Only met him for a mere 2-3 hours on Monday and the next time I will be free will probably be Fri/Sat. I can no longer check my Instagram/Twitter as frequently cus I'm often caught up with work. 

I don't know if the problem lies with me. Either I have some major time management issues or I took the wrong modules this semester.

Currently I'm living for the end of week 13.

Hello World!

I have finally emerged from my cocoon of work. I was so happy when midnight struck, cus there was no need to look at my equity research report anymore. For the last three days, my routine was: wake up -> do equity report research work -> eat/do whatever is necessary to survive -> work. I had no interest in blogs/instagram whatsoever. I had 3-4 chrome windows open, with each tabs filled with information about the stock.

How stressed up I was! My prof did not teach us any skills related to the report at all, so I had to google the different valuation methods. This report is exactly the stuff I want to do in the future as a career. It was a harrowing experience of desperation when my valuation methods couldn't work. My group mates weren't exactly friendly so I didn't ask them for help, I could only depend on myself. However, the experience was good! Even though I felt stressed out and had no time for anything, I had a strong sense of satisfaction when I finally finished my report.

Anyhow, these are pictures of my second trip to Timmy Ho. I didn't post it on instagram cus I got sick of posting food photos. Below is my review of the must-order food there.

#1 Char Siew Bun. Duh. It's a MUST-ORDER. If Tim Ho Wan didn't have this dish, then it won't be worth queuing more than half an hour for. Best bun I've ever had!

#2 Egg white spring roll. I normally don't like spring rolls cus I don't have a good impression of the taste. But this roll exceeded my expectations as the filling of this roll tasted so smooth and delish. Again, best spring roll I've ever had.

#3 Century egg congee. Again, I love this! I like century eggs so this was awesome. Love how they added in salted egg, gives a twist to the congee.

 These three dishes are my must-order dishes when I go to Timmy Ho. I didn't order their Malay cake as I had it the first time I went and I didn't really like the taste even though it was quite fluffy. As for their siew mais and prawn dumplings, they didn't stand out. I probably had better ones elsewhere.




I will blog about my trip to BKK soon!
