Question: I know that you can be overwhelmed, but can you be underwhelmed?
Answer: I think you can in Europe!- from the movie "Ten Things I Hate About You"
I find my posts becoming more and more cryptic, a trend which is interesting because I now have less and less things I can talk about. It might be that I'm becoming a more reserved and private person, or it may just be that I'm acclimatising myself to work.
Just 2 months ago, I used to complain that my mind has been kept idle for too long. Of late, I have had to dust the cobwebs and go into overdrive. I can feel my shoulders stiffen up much earlier in the morning, around the time my mind has been used to waking up. I've had to quickly remember how to manage my time, how to juggle different thoughts, how to make mental notes that stick, how to think things through and think the conclusion again.
I'm exhausted - not because of the hours I'm putting in (which is measly compared to what I'm used to), but rather the demands on my concentration from various parties. Some of it is exhilirating, some not - but I still find myself exhausted much too early in the day.
How I miss the quiet times...
Disclaimer: This is my blog, so I can complain when I'm busy and complain when I'm not, if I so wish. If you have a problem with that, tell me over coffee - and be prepared to pay for it. :P

"but I still find myself exhausted much too early in the day" <--- May be it's not just because of your thought ... maybe it's because of what you eat (or do you eat properly?).
What we eat is as important as our mental state. I don't know about you really, but watch out your diet ... and maybe a couple of vitamins such as B complex, E and garlic pill will do ...
ooh...coffee with the goddess?
*runs off to look for something to complain about*
:P
najah, I would love to have coffee with you...still can't get over the photo Jikon put up...blink*blink...
anyway,...I think it is great to be able to be crpytic in your blog entry. You are right, it is your blog....leave the imagination to us readers, yeah...
As for me, there is still some sort of an obligation not to write crpytically, my blog is still new, still want to attract more readers(i'm an attention whore, yeah)...so sometimes I feel like pandering, writing the interesting stuff, easy to understand....but now that you've got me thinking...maybe I should just write whatever sh*t I want.
Have a good day...go re-energise !

Racheal, Fooji: Coffee anytime, just have those complaints ready... :)
Posted by: Najah at 2003年07月17日 14:24I'm going through one of those phases. Ntah apa-apa tulis dalam blog. But I write anyway, to keep my creative side from being stagnant.
Could I have a cup of coffee as well, once I'm home? ;)
