Bad for Good, Good for Bad

My parents just gave me a gift. But... yeah, there's always a but. I can't use it until after graduation and right now, I want nothing more than to pull the graduation day closer. Can't help feeling so excited. I can't tell you what it is yet until I have it to myself completely. And oh by the way, there's still that thorn in the path to graduation. A reason why I can't be so sure of everything right now.

Here comes the thesis. It is not being good to me these days. It is the only thing that's keeping me (us) from smelling graduation. However, it's also the only effective method for me to sleep shortly after I lie down, which is a surprise because it normally takes forever for me to drift into the la la land. It's probably what they call a balance. A bad for good. And I'm wondering maybe mental exhaustion is the best sleeping pill. You know, like brain abuse. I can certainly do that. And circumstances may just help me.

Last Friday, we re-defended our thesis and finally this time, succeeded. That doesn't mean anything yet though until we comply everything the panelists said during the defense. And what the panelists said almost covered everything we put into our document and a bit in the system before the repeat, which means there's a LOT of work to do in the foreseeable future. The foreseeable future is within a week, by the way. For now, we are passed. It'll expire if we don't have our thesis perfect next week. The document part is mine since my group mates are doing the program. If I screw up, I'm dead. Talk about pressure. Lol.

Going back now to the gift, at least I have something enough to hold on to.
