Of all the days, I just happen to feel down and depressed yesterday because of... school. I had been giving myself all the positive energy that I needed to stay motivated and strong to face the challenges of school life so far but I decided to have negative thoughts about it. Thinking of all the disadvantages and whatnots. Couldn't help it but to burst my feelings out to a group of my friends who encouraged me and was given a good lecture that night by my man as well. Thank you... I really needed that.

So far today had been a bright one and I hope it will stay that way. I came out with an idea and decided to give a more "friendlier" and "less stressful" terms to some words because I do think it does give out a positive effect which makes everything less intimidating, less stressful and hopefully, makes me stay optimistic towards it. I'm going to use the word 'homework' instead of 'assignments', 'volunteer work' instead of 'field practicum' and 'diary writing' as the neverending reflections. It does sounds funny as I'm typing it down but hopefully it works. Lastly, as to not dread attending lectures and tutorials, I'm going to think of it as a time where I get to gain new knowledge or information and either typing notes on the laptop or writing it down and for tutorials, it will be a time for discussions and revision. I just gotta remind myself regularly to just face it because I admit, it is easier said than done.

Well, I'm off now. To do my "diary writing" and maybe do a bit of my "homework" that I have. 

Stay posi!
