No lah, I’m just kidding. The earth will be rotating in the other direction if I ever go on strike!! *roll eyes*
After two weeks of intense work I’m just starting to feel some mental and physical fatigue, yet the sprit and will power is strong as I am still highly motivated to finish my experiments. Hence, my body feels like I’m the rope in a game of tug of war, one moment I’ll recall the famous quote: 休息是为了走更长远的路 , feel the muscle-ache and dullness of my thoughts and accept that I should indulge in a quick break, however the very next moment I would see the benefits of pressing on and be convinced to continue working. Heh, I think I can just about visualize a mini-angel and a mini-demon arguing on top of my head…. *LOL*
Well, sometimes I think it’s the planner personality in me that tires me out. Too much energy was simply wasted in the anticipation and preparation phase, such that when the real activity kicks in, my fuel tank is already half empty. However, on the other hand, it brings me great pleasure to see the activities acting out as planned, and the accurateness of my meticulous estimations just thrills me and keeps me going. Perhaps I should consider some kind of project management job as my second career or return to the OR field.
Anyway, the end (of my suffering) is near. I’ve cleared most of my tests and have just 2 more batches to go, which should take about a day each and is currently scheduled for the coming Saturday and Wednesday. Hopefully, I can start analyzing the test data after Easter. I meant to jump into the analysis right after testing, but I am now toying with the idea of rewarding myself with a short Easter break, although I have not decided if I want to be a hermit or go out and get wild. In any case, catching up with friends is a must and I guess by next weekend I would know whether my body needs a rest or go out and have some fun. I won’t be slogging away in college on Good Friday – that’s for sure!!
