This is the first time in a long while where I am feeling so relaxed. Even though the Chinese A Levels are coming up soon, I have decided to let loose and take things easy for a short while. I absolutely agree with what many people have been telling me — that I am too uptight about my promotional exams and have a tendency to overstress myself over small situations. Yes, I have to admit that I have a low level of patience and I am a perfectionist, always striving for high goals which are unreachable. So for the next week, I am just going to spend my holidays relaxing. I really need this break.

This long break can also be spent on doing all the things which I have procrastinated for a long time. I have yet to redecorate my bedroom wall with the new SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals) posters which my mother had purchased for me yesterday. So many posters of puppies, kittens and other furry pets which I absolutely adore. Staring at my bedroom wall should be very pleasant from tomorrow onwards as the mere sight of little animals would make me smile.

On another note, I spent three hours combing the entire Parkway Parade for a nice sports windbreaker but wound up empty handed. Converse no longer stocks up on nice windbreaker designs and I cannot find any decent looking ones at Nike, Adidas and the rest of the common sports brands. The design which I am looking for is mostly pure black with a few grey/white stripe designs, the usual “sporty” looking ones which used to be found at Converse. If anyone out there knows where I can find a windbreaker like this, please let me know! Thanks.

Besides going shopping as mentioned above, I spent most of the day online adding new updates to this domain. A new piece of writing titled Pain and Torture had been added under the Literary Section and I have re-edited and modified some existing pieces in there since I had too much time on my hands. The portfolio has also been updated with new digital artwork pieces and layout designs which I had done over the past two days.

Talk about wasting my time away…

With regard to my previous journal entry, I had a few requests to post some photographs of my cousin’s kittens. Sadly though, I had forgotten to bring my camera when I went to my cousin’s house 2 days ago so I am unable to provide any photographs. I would *try* to get some snapshots before my cousin releases those kittens back to the wild, but I am not making any promises. I really like a photograph of those kittens as a momento as well. I may probably leave my camera with my cousin for a week and bribe him to help me take a load of photographs for me…
