Ops SEMEX (Operations SEMester EXams)

Did some productive studying in the library today. Managed to focus and achieve my studying objective. Only downside was a group of students behind me gossiping loudly about another guy. I don't mind them gossiping or anything but they should keep the noise level down at the very least. If not, go to the cafe or something. Not everyone wants to listen to grapevines. Nonetheless, studying in the library is a better alternative for me in the morning. It gets me out of bed and makes me stay away from it! Will do that from now on.
In military terms, I'm currently on REDCON 2B for Ops SEMEX. Not good at all! By next week, I need to be REDCON 1 or at least 2A, definately.

Started my daily running regime since two weeks. Been running almost everyday keeping fit to referee the upcoming NRC season back home. More importantly, it is a good break to have, after sitting down studying for the whole morning and afternoon. Healthy body, healthy mind right?

It's really nice to be able to keep in touch with the boys back in school. Good to know that they are doing well and still surviving for those taking their O levels. As they finish their Os, I will start on my exam. hah! For the younger ones, time to hit back the field and track. This is when you are going to start complaning that rugby is taking too much of your holiday time away. I'm sure some of them are already thinking of excuses to skip training. Been there before, worse actually. But that's the sacrifice you need to make, to win. Winning never comes easy. I believe there are quite abit of tournaments coming up before the Christmas break. Good way to gain all the experience they need. Wish them all the best for the upcoming SCC 7s.

Why must two things occur at the same time? Bledisloe Cup (Aus vs NZ) or Erica's End of Semester (Haloween) Party? Hm.. here we go again.. another decision to make. Brains already getting over heated of making too many important decisions this week. Of which I know some decisions have upset others.


Lyrics to express my mood for the day:

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

I don't quite know
How to say
How I feel

Those three words
Are said too much
They're not enough


.

.

Forget what we're told
Before we get too old
Show me a garden that's bursting into life
