Well, it seems that I speak in the language of Burgess’ A Clockwork Orange.

You see, because of the strike that was ended two weeks ago, I had to spend my Saturday at university, spending eight hours in the same classroom (although we had breaks and lunch and the last one and a half hours were overtime we put in to work on a team project).

I have been quite frustrated with a project we’ve been putting together. Working with a team is never easy stuff when you’re building an LES. Ah, you don’t know what an LES is eh? Don’t worry about it. But anyways, lots of misunderstanding, immaturity, pride, selfishness, tears, bitterness and a lack of good leadership were involved. I’m glad that after a time we all resigned to simply start working as a team and humbly do what had to be done.

I am tired and sick of this project that I find somewhat uninteresting and not engaging. I’m tired of the pressure and the mending that constantly needs to be doing. People are so easily upset and bitter. I’m at a point where I don’t really care about the end-product and the grade we’ll get, I just want to be done, done with it all.

I knew you would enjoy such an entry. Sorry. The good thing right now is that my roommate is playing some nice guitar, which makes me feel like day dreaming for the rest of my days.

  3. No, I don’t do what they do. People actually call me to chat with someone who won’t make them feel under pressure and will help them relax a little. I always try to promote peace among my team members, hoping they get curious and wonder how I am so peaceful myself. Which already happened and that gives me the opportunity to share about Jesus.
