I Can't Wait

Around 2 weeks before Christmas I said to my self and to many people:

"I can not wait till Christmas!"

Now it's 2 weeks after Christmas and time passed so quickly without me even realizing. To be honest I start cursing up and down because exam is approaching in around two weeks and I AM NOT READY. Not a bit.

See how funny it is. All the time periods I mentioned is the same : two weeks. A fortnight. Half a month.

Before something fun, it seems too long. It was unbearably awful to wait for Christmas to come. My friend used to calm me  down every now and then, saying it will eventually come. He also needed to remind me every now and then that I would survive the remaining time (class-wise :p).

During and after something fun, it seems soooooooooooo quick. How can my two weeks worth of Christmas break gone in a blink just like that. POOF. GONE. Christmas day seemed to be so long ago, although it was just almost two weeks ago. I can still feel the spirit and smell the nice food I cooked for Christmas eve dinner, but it's gone. I can still feel the remains of excitement I had when I planned the short trip with my bestfriends, but it. is. gone.

On the other hand, before something not fun but important, it seems so short. I actually start to have trouble breathing at the approaching assignments deadlines and the approaching exam week. I will not have time to tackle them all! Two weeks are only enough to sharpen your pencil, no more!

*leave the computer to scream incoherently outside*

So. With those two weeks's in mind, I decided that it is not good to say 'I can not wait till...'.

I decided this will be one of my short new year's resolution: not to say i can not wait till. It brings you no good. You can't make the time goes faster with the phrase. You can't slow time down when it's the time. Just let time walks in its own pace, and be patient.

I can wait. You can wait.

Waiting with tremendous concern for the deadlines and exams,

January 6th
