Can't believe it's Sunday night already after a 4 day holiday. While I don't dread Sunday evenings as much as I used to back in NS, it still seems like the past 4 days have really flown by. All the CNY eating/snacking/visiting seems to have all blurred together even though it's actually be a pretty action packed past few days.
Besides having the customary meals with my relatives from both sides of the family, I also managed to catch up with a couple of friends outside of INSEAD over the break and successfully avoid email for a few days too. Chinese New Year really is the perfect time for all sorts of reunions and a great excuse for groups that haven't met up in a while to meet up again and renew friendships. Since Chinese New Year runs for 15 days, I've got reunion plans for next weekend lined up also!
I'm sure many of my classmates are probably just touching down at Changi as I'm typing this after returning from various exotic locales. I look forward to seeing their pictures on Facebook soon and hearing about the ridiculous antics that people got up to. As for the ones that were "stranded" here in SG, a couple of them came over to my place on the 2nd day of the New Year for lil' get together. Figured this might be the only chance for some of them to experience Chinese New Year first hand, take part in some of the traditions and sample some of the snacks. =)
From the relative calm of the last 4 days, we enter the home stretch of P3. It's the last 3 weeks and 2 of my classes end this week. 2 more end the following week and 2 more the week after that (just before the hols). I still haven't quite figured out what I'm going to do for the P3/4 break yet. Need to figure that one out. Currently thinking either NZ, Japan (skiing) or perhaps a volunteer project in Cambodia that I just heard about. But before then, I need to finish 3 group projects, do 3 more group assignments and take 1 final exam. >.<
Guess there's only one thing to do. Take a deep breath and plunge right in.
