There are times when you are up there and there are times when you are bogged down and these last 13 days have been somewhat hectic and pressing. Starting with the new arrival, roundtrips to KL and Shah Alam, ferrying trips to the hospital, open houses, exams etc....
Tomorrow I'm going back to work after nearly 3 weeks off; have to see what to be done before school breaks for Deepavali until wednesday. Come thursday n friday I may have to go to Ipoh overseeing the kids shooting down the alleys.
All in all, it's a mixture of events; joining the crowd or organising functions within those 13 days. Yes, I realise that fulfilling the invitations was REALLY something which is being highly appreciated by the hosts.. Take for example, the gathering at a friend's house somewhere in Glenmarie last sunday, being partially responsible to make sure that things don't get thrown away and hoping that the 'tuan rumah' would get the satisfaction of being the host (not to mention the toil of preparing the dishes), it somehow affected me. It made me think off the things that you cant live without... Is it the family? Is it the friends? Is it the feeling of being needed? Is it the feeling of being useful? Is it the bond or is it the satisfaction of being able to JUST do something to make the days go by??
As the final school term is approaching its pit stop, I feel suffocated by the workload that needs to be cleared before the scripts come piling up on the dining table...
Hmm, time to get down to planned work again...
