Somehow I always find myself on WordPress in the dead of the night where I really ought to be sleeping (or doing work).

My FYP group recently had an internal feedback session, where each of us did a quick self-reflection and exchanged observations on our working styles. All three of them unanimously agreed that I have a tendency to be blunt/straightforward whenever a deadline draws near since my anxiety levels would increase. It’s true; I remember just a few weeks ago I was worried that our project wasn’t progressing and on the day we had our weekly meeting, I plastered this poker face on and my tone was a combination of exasperation and urgency. The frowns on their faces told me I probably went a little overboard that day…… In my defence, though, it made them anxious and it pushed them to achieve a little more. Still, it’s not what I enjoy doing – being stern and managing people. Probably means I’ll never be a CEO.

I also shared with them what I felt was my key personal weakness but on hindsight, having rationally thought through what I said, it doesn’t seem like a weakness anymore. More on this another time, perhaps.

In other unrelated news, I have officially sold my soul to caffeine (I drink either coffee or tea six days a week now) and this is despite receiving an average of seven hours of sleep each night. It also appears that my tolerance towards coffee is weakening, with slight headaches developing each time I gulp down a non-sugared coffee. This is partly the reason why my tehbing and I seem to be inseparable in school. I LOVE TEHBING!!!!!

Ok goodnight.
