Summer'17

10:01 PM


Its been awhile. And my summer break from school is coming to an end real soon. But let's start from the very beginning of it shall we? Before I was even done with my second year of uni, I felt really stressed out and unhappy(this isn't surprising at all?) due to various factors and maybe overthinking too. So during my study week, I just spontaneously asked my childhood best friend to go on a trip with me, because I really needed a break badly. A reprieve of some sort, before internship starts. We went to Bali, explored a little, ate lots of expensive food and climbed a mountain. I think I really needed that and also those 4 days were spent to catch up with my friend. She's awfully busy being an architecture student. Right after, we parted ways and she went back to Singapore while I went to Jakarta to visit my grandma. It was a lot of resting and reading. I felt refreshed at least. And I think, I managed to let go a little about the things I've been stressing about.

I'm really thankful that I managed to find an internship to clear my uni requirement, even though the stipend was not that great. I wouldn't say I hated my job but, its just that I was expecting a lot more, a desire to learn a lot more. So I would say the experience hasn't been as fulfilling as I wanted it to be. Now i'm left with 1 week to go!!! At least, I had a buddy for 5 weeks, out of the 14 weeks I'm here for. The bosses are nice to me so I'm glad. I realised how exhausting working can be, even though I don't do much? All I want to do is actually sleep.

Can't believe how fast time has flown by, caught up with friends who really matter and I think time away from school really helped me clear my mind. Really hope that the new semester would be a fresh start and push me to work a lot harder! I think for this summer, I can really say that I've let some things go (not all but at least some) and really thankful for what I do have.
