Today is the first day of the new year, but for me, it also means that I only have 6 days left before term 5. Now that I’m getting into my second last term at VFS, things are more serious than ever and I’ve got pretty nervous about my final project, too.

I still have lots of fears and worries about this project. Maybe I’d have more confidence after finishing all the research part, I hope? And also, I’m a little bit behind the schedule (already!) because I’ve been having too much fun with all those gatherings and events over the holidays, more than I expected before.

So, there’re six more days left for me to do 40 hours of work. In other words, I have to work, with full concentration, for at least 6.7 hours per day for the next six days. Otherwise, my new term would not be very happy from the beginning and that would kill me with all the excessive amount of pressure by the time we get to week 3.

I hate having too much pressure on me because it makes me weak and grumpy and I become ill. And I hate being ill because it just makes everything worse; I cannot do anything when I’m ill and the school takes 5% off of the final mark when you’re absent no matter what.

I keep saying to myself that this is not a practice. It really is a serious project that could lead me to something great, and I will not take any little possibilities away from this by being lazy! >_<)/

Go me!
