Viagra for brain

Exams just a couple of days away but I'm still doing nothing about it. Can't concentrate at all. perhaps, I'm both physically and mentally dehydrated ! Totally burnt out. Mind was dog-tired but unable to enjoy a good night sleep. Neither suffering suffering from insomnia nor over indulgence of caffeine.
Don't know why...maybe too stressed. Oh gosh...what should I do?

Tonight, I'm practically brain dead and I could feel my body weakening. Could all of that stress be the cause of this ?

I think I should take a proper rest now (best to ignore everything). Tomorrow still have to attend my last tutorial. Another boring day....as usual my lecturers would be babbling in front and I would be day dreaming behind.


So now,I am sitting here, writing, thinking of things to relieve myself. Any good stress relievers?Got any remedy to relieve stress ah ? Perhaps blogging could help a lil.

Can someone please recommend "Veegra" for strong powerful brain....so that I can absorb everything that I studied....

Contributions

Judging from the rate of my posting, you can say that I haven’t been blogging as often as I used to. Surely there is no lack of motivation nor ideas…but simply lack of time. "Time ain't enough". I was so tied up with my studies esp my assignments that I hardly have time to log into my blog.

As today 14th November is the last day of school for 2008, let me share a lil bit about my job. Not teaching though.... but my contributions to my present school. You see as a Library teacher, I teach less but concentrate more on the administrative of the school resource centre. In malay, it's Guru Perpustakaan dan Media. This is a new post introduced by the Ministry. I was officially appointed in 2005.

Back to my school punya cerita.....

I am the one of the pioneer teachers (at that time only 15 of us including my headmistress and 3 senior assistants) in my current school which was opened in 2002. All of us started from scratch. A new school with bare building, empty classrooms and bald field. The furnitures started to arrive as soon as school commences in January that year. Too bad, I didn't take any photos then...or else I could post them here so that we can make some comparisons.

I was in charged of the school Resource Centre..aka Library. It was a huge hall situated on the 2nd floor of Block B. The size is equivalent to 4 classrooms. Imagine how big it is..? It was completely bare when I first step into this building. Nothing except the windows, doors and air conds.

I was telling myself.."Oh gosh..how am I going to set up this library. I have no experience what-so-ever in this field ! First timer..!"

And that was history.... And today..after 7 years of hardwork...my school Library looked like this. All because of Ann's punya effort...la. Give some due credits to me...will you? Of course..there's still rooms for improvement. Thus far, I'm proud of my job. I'll let the pictures do the talking.

Wanna comment anything..?

"Happy holidays."

Blessed

My ex classmates are a group of successful people....in terms of career and educational backgrounds. I've got in touch with them only recently where we got to link to one another thru online facility. I have seen them a couple of times for lunches and dinners.

Initially, I felt that I wasn't really belonged in this social circle and my feelings of not belonging were strong. Many of these friends come from generations of money. Most of them are successful in their respective fields. I can't help but feel ashamed about my level of education. Even though, my friends never compare our backgrounds but I was still feeling left out.
They all have great educations and have had fond memories of university be it locally or abroad. Most of them are over-achievers and really have their acts together. Most of them have bachelor's degrees, masters and are in a good income bracket.

Yes, I admit that I did have insecurities and some low self esteem.

But I no longer have that kind of feelings now. I won't refrain from socializing with them as I do have a lot of fun with them and they are very nice and I do believe they like me. Although, we are different in terms of educational backgrounds but we could get along pretty well. We have similar wave length and chemistry.

Well....I am proud of my job. Noble job. As a matter of fact, I'm nurturing the future generations. And I'll be getting my degree soon and perhaps a master in the near future...(haha). Therefore, I shouldn't have looked down on my ability as well as capability.


Quote.."Material possessions don't bring happiness".
Oh, well.... there is quite a lot of evidence indicating that, sure enough, money doesn't buy happiness -- or at least the rich are happier than you and I but not very much so.

I quote this..
Some researchers said, "when one is carefully control for other things, more money actually does not make people a bit happier". Being married is far more important than being rich; having a job is much more important than how much the job pays.

Now..I feel blessed that I have a loving son, caring family, decent job which provide me with comfortable living and most importantly a healthy body.

What else could I ask more..?

First Blogging Anniversary

Today is the 1st anniversary of annlim07@blogspot.com. Yup..I managed to keep this blog kicking although initially it started out as a play-play thing. Honestly, I didn't expect that I could maintain this blog for this long as basically I am not a keen blogger. I am not a good writer either. I don't think I have much to write or tell..!

Anway..I manage to hit the 1st year...and hopefully..I can keep up the blogging job. It was fun to be able to pour out my feelings here. A punching bag of kind. I have learnt a few things after joining the blogs world. One thing for sure..creating a post aren't easy. Although they are not easy but they can be extremely rewarding.

I want to utter a massive thanks to everyone for reading and commenting on my blog. It has been great to post and at the same time receiving your feedbacks over this one year.

Thank you.

Desire

I started out late but that doesn't mean I am a slow learner.. coz eventually I will catch up with my buddies. Ya....

Basically, I'm not someone whom is academically inclined. I was a slow learner during my sch days. Every child or student has a button switch that need to be trigger before he or she could move forward. Mine was very much hidden until my late 30s...where it was switched on .......when I woke up one morning and decided to go for a change. I want to further my studies. I want to get a degree. I want to upgrade myself to another scale...and don't wish to end up in my present position.

With that burning desire, I placed my application for a distance learning prog. To my suprised, I got a place at OUM, a joint ventured with Ministry Of Education.

Thus far, I hv already completed 3 semesters.....and will be graduating in 2011. Still a long way but I'm adamant that I will pull thru it.

Am I still suffering from inferiority complex like a few days ago..? I guess NOT.
