The urge to learn (4th of January)

4th day in 2015

Same as usual, I jogged at the park in the morning

The only difference today was, halfway through the first round where I reached the top of uphill

There was a string between two logs hanging 

and I got tripped over heavily like a fat whale 

knees and palms were hurt

scratches and bruises everywhere

With pain, I picked myself up from the dust on my body

and kept on jogging regardless

soon completed the first round

I just realised I left my hat from where I tripped over

I jogged back to there, and found my hat lying next to the log

walked to a toilet nearby

to clean my wounds

I blamed myself for not seeing things clearly 

and the one who set this up for fun

But after all

it was just me being unlucky in the early morning...

Back home, an hour of nap

Had a dream of me driving by myself with mum next to me for the really first time

the only I remember was she kept asking me avoid hitting with other cars

I begged her not to use the word 'hit' 

A taboo word when driving on the road

like a curse or a magical spell which may cause car accident...

blog post updated

plastic sleeve folder designed and showed that to my president

He said ok, great

great then, I finished another task for the day..

With above and beyond's best tracks company

I continued to read that article that left finishing from yesterday

The one that is about 11 essential camera techniques in filmmaking

During my reading time

she was watching that reality show in which is for hiring people

There was a few times when she asked me to watch it with her in some particular points

where I also have the same problems with that graduate

who seem to appear big ego in the way she speaks sometimes

and was being judged by some bosses

Attitudes could be the determinant to win over someone's heart

I should learn from that too, as mum said

Now we know what kind of noise was made a few days ago

the really eerie grinding noise that appeared next to my window

was creepy like hell

using mum's word 'it sent chills down my spine'

I assumed that it was the possum

so I searched noise of possum on Youtube

Trying to find out if it sounds like what we heard

My prediction was right

It's totally the same, especially when it gets angry or moody

And I remember it came all the way from afar last night as well

as I heard some branches outside of my windows

were weighed down by some heavy creatures climbing up and down..

For the rest of the day

I learned some idioms again

and some phrasal words that I don't know of

And I revised that by doing several tests from the same site

as well as some words which go quite confusing, even for locals

Next I had a read of a few pages of that business and management vocab 

as well as that book for adjective memorisation based on the rules of base and affixes

These are all my plans for me to have some productive learning throughout my uni holidays

I don't want to waste any precious time on insignificant things now

Just like photography is something I need to learn too

Both for my own benefit and the need for helping the society

It has become more than an interest that urges me to learn

In that 2 hours of experimenting from taking pictures and reading from the instruction book

I started to feel pleased making this a part of my life...

PS: Thanks for Haiwon's invitation, I can't wait to see you on Sat :)

PS1: Cut my wounds open in order to clean them all up, because the sands got inside of my skin...she said I had to do that...I've been through that painful almost 2 hours slowing cutting my wounds open...worst time of the day...
PS2: Feeling loved for having parents' caring though. Distance is really not the problem, I still feel the warmth coming all the way from China. His words made me go 'Yes dad, I'll take care of myself..because I don't want you and mum to worry too much..' The huge love, is continued to grow without ceasing...
