Facing Reality
With the end of the deadline, the winds have ceased blowing, the leaves settled back to ground. I seem to fall into a static pace, waiting for time to pass, waiting for something to happen.
There are a lot of things I don't want or like to think about, primarily to do with stepping out of the academic institution and into the working world. I want to take the time off to do what I really want to do, because for a long time, I have been waiting for this day. The day u truly finish your 16 years of education and enjoy what the outside world has to offer, before coming back to work the rest of your life away.
Because once it starts, you really can't stop.
It's somehow easy for the same people who have comforted me through those days where I toiled day and night working at my final year project till I was completely drained of mental and physical strength, to forget that I really deserve a break after all this. I need the time to myself, to see the world, and get away from all that, rather than be reminded of what I have to do for myself to get ready for the working world.
I'm only woman, not machine.
I want someone to share my enthusiasm and my excitement of travelling and seeing the world, not remind me of the monotonous, but nonetheless important, stuff I have to do, because really, that can wait.

Well, since I am one of those whom you've described as having past the point of no return in working life, I really do look forward to you going on your exploratory trips, and hopefully share some of your experiences here on your blog.
Text and images would be the next best thing if you can actually be there in the flesh. I've really enjoyed your Being in Beijing blog writings. Very detailed and engaging. Would certainly be thrilled if there would be more of these now that you'd get to travel again....
