# Busyness
Psalm 23 in a busy world
The clock is my dictator;
I shall not rest.
It makes me lie down only when exhausted.
It leads me to depression.
It hounds my soul.
It leads me in circles of frenzy for activity's sake
Even though I run frantically from task to task
I will never get it all done, for my "ideal" is with me.
Deadlines and my need for approval, they drive me.
They demand my performance from me beyond the limits of my schedule.
They anoint my head with migraines.
My in-basket overflows.
Surely fatigue and time pressure shall follow me all the days of my life.
And I will dwell in the bonds of frustration forever.

Hi blog. I am busy. Hence I have kind of ignored you. Today, lecture at 6pm. Ends at 9pm. I feel like bringing my laptop there. Ok i shall.
Im going to get married to my Fujitsu Lifebook S6410 soon. This coming Monday willl be the wedding ceremony. Officially we will be married when my first tutorial starts.
So what am I doing now? Resting in my room before my GEM 2901 class starts in LT32 in Science Fac. Gonna have to leave at abt 5.15 to get there on time. Disgusting ryte? Im on campus and still have to leave 45 mins early. Saded.
Life has been quite nice off campus, but today, I shall make it a nice one. Txs Beverly for the convo yesterday (= or today rather. Hehe.
Shout out to Yumei, Pras, Sek, Kari, Joanne and Stephanie. Miss you guys. Makes TJ seem so far away when I met u guys, cuz haven seen u guys in three eternities already lar.. treasure ur JC life, cuz it doesn't get much easier in Uni. That's local uni if you're wondering. Go overseas! Pls do! Dun make me see u in orientation when im in Year 3. If i do see u also, be in the camps k?
Ok, back to NUS life. Met Amanda today who graciously lent me her CashCard cuz Vanessa's had not enough credit to print my notes. Ate at the fabled Arts Canteen. Ok only lar the western food there. Still haven't found the best which is apparently at Business. Which makes sense. Business, west, seems to click quite well. While Engin, food? Hmm.. the only thing we know abt cooking is how many Joules of energy the stove will provide and to find the best material to cook the food in. Oh, we would claim to design it too, but i think SDE takes credit for that. So I guess engin canteen will not be able to boast much for now other than our Indonesian Panggang. Which I have yet to try. I will. I have four years... How will I not...
Ok, time's up Blog. I've gotta sleep and bathe before lecture. Trying to figure out how to squeeze in DINNER when lecture's from 6 to 9. Oh well, good to be back in PGP, although im not too excited.
Oh, yes, there's one thing u can take back from reading this post, I now have a Facebook account! Yes, search for the ONLY,i repeat ONLY Kenneth Stephen Wilson on Facebook k? Cheers ppl!
