3 July 2018

I can’t believe that we are now done with the first half of the year. Where has all the time gone?! I must say that I’m quite dumbfounded now. With workload and household chores. Work wise, I’m a bit stressed (but I blame it solely on me) as I think I put too much expectation on myself. I want to be a staff who delivers her work really well. I want to grow (not physically, obviously!) in my working environment. I do not want to carry a bad image as an academic staff.

Sometimes I feel good about myself for being able to pull through these difficult situations. However, there are times that I feel so lonely. It is not that I don’t receive any support from my family, friends or colleagues. It is just this feeling that I really don’t know how to describe it. If possible, I do now want to burden the people around me with my whining (borrowing this word from Shazwani :p). I know I can handle this on my own. I am looking forward to seeing what the rest of 2018 has in store for me. May Allah ease.

wotd: perceptive – having or showing sensitive insight.
