Week 2.

Jump to Comments

My holiday was unebelievably dysfunctional. I did work during the holiday, which, in the sense, takes away the whole purpose of it being a holiday.

Thus, part of my reflection today is: what is a holiday?

Is it a day whereby nothing productive happens? That cannot be true either, considering rest is essentially productive, because by resting, you are preparing for the day(s) ahead.

Is it a day to spend with family? Perhaps, but not all holidays are public holidays, such as the already-past-us Childrens’ Day.

Then maybe, it is a day to spend with friends, perhaps old friends that you have not met for some time? Possible, but friends I have not met in some time are in Secondary School now, and life in Polytechnic is quite topsy-turvy. When the poor Secondary School people have their exams, we are enjoying life in the midst of our holidays. Two weeks into our school semester, they begin their holidays. Talk about making it difficult to plan family holidays if one child is in Polytechnic and the other is still having Primary/Secondary education.

Anyway, on with the main reflection.

I thought working without actual contact was difficult, but it was actually quite easy. I got the content for the presentation and compiled it. Later today, we’re gonna get together to have a short rehearsal for the actual thing.

I wrote my fifty word stories before, and after sending a friend off at the airport. It was quite strange; I wrote three at Pacific Coffee Co. located near City Hall, then wrote the last two at Pacific Coffee Co. at Changi Airport Terminal 2 Arrival Hall, and yes, a few of us camped overnight at Changi Airport.

I felt workload this week was quite heavy, with the presentation, then the weekly reflections, and finally the 5 fifty-word stories. Nevermind the stories, as I enjoy writing. Well, that’s about it I guess. Goodbye.
