i’m so distracted by eat, pray, love. i wanted to do my work but everytime i stepped home, i can’t seem to follow through. i have tonnes of things to complete and not enough time at work, that i thought i would finish them at home. but a BIG NO.
i can have all them papers and notes but it can take me a while before i can accomplish something. but maybe it’s just my brain and body’s way of telling me that stop, it’s your rest time, you shouldnt be doing any work. you need to recuperate.
yes, recuperate. before i go on and rebelliously procrastinate things.
well, i’ve been to two talks for the past days. its mind boggling and as much as i missed those days back in uni reading all those books and attending lectures, and being in these talks somewhat brings back those reminiscence, apart from some fine information gained, i cannot help thinking, let’s leave all these theories to the thinkers, and let me do my work! irony. for one of the talk, or they call it workshop i went to was something on ‘thought’ leadership. very sociological and trying to instill in us on thinking strategically and having that sociological imagination, ok simply, having that bigger picture (for God’s sake, i learnt sociology back then). i mean these are good information for my work. i love knowledge. but am at a rhythm where i just want to get things done, practical mode. and i love thinking but if i want to think, it can take me a whole day just thinking and reading and trying to form hypothesis, but now i cannot do that.
and when people starts spewing those (word)-istic terms, with those oh-so-debating mode, i shut myself off. for knowledge sake, they’re just presenting and sharing their research. let’s not be too much argumentative about it?
and why am i so uptight about this?
oh yea, can i say it again, living in this small dot of an island is…difficult.
