Stone-ing
Sorry for those bloggers who have been reading my blog and for such a long time since I last updated you all about me for the past few weeks... keke

Well for the past few weeks, think it must have been the most tired weeks that I had ever encountered and gone through so far. Its because for the past few weeks, its either been juggling my time between work or my NP preparation for the upcoming camps and the area campfire.

To think that we've actually been doing the planning quite early but still don't know why in the end we still have to much things left to settle and tidy up the loose ends. Then maybe its too packed hence during that period when I'm on morning shift, I actually don't have enough sleep in the night then after work still need to go to the school to help out in the preparation.

Then on after my first night shift instead of catching some sleep, I still had to go for my scuba diving pool lesson in the early afternoon. Overall the lesson quite interesting as its my first time able to stay underwater for such a long time and learned how to do scuba diving. But for that I need to pay a price for it which was to forgo my sleep and the lesson actually only around 5+ in the afternoon then finished.

Hence by the time I reached back home, its already around 1830hrs. So I had to repacked my bag again to get prepared for my second night shift before going out for dinner with my family members. It was like dragging myself to everywhere that I went. Then night time is the worse, to that I actually had to force myself to be wide awake in order to perform my duties.

Then after the second night which is my off day when I reached home, again instead of resting and catching whatever sleep that I need, I just sat at the sofa and stone for a while before repacked my bag again to get ready to go to the school to help out for the camp and also for my work the next following day.

Thinking that maybe I may be able to catch some sleep in school, I was totally wrong. The moment I reached there, I had to take over so much stuffs for the area campfire alone. Gross really have to be multi-tasking in order to carry out the jobs. Then at night again only managed to catch some sleep around 3+ in the morning about 4am, and had to drag myself to wake up around 6am.

But thank god that for the camps, nothing much extra happened as it's a peaceful camp for me to handle. After the break camp, settle some admin stuffs with the officers before I rushed back home in a cab to put my load at home and lastly to have a nice bath before going to work.

Think its only at this period in which I truly understand the terms of stone-ing. Its because for the 1 whole week, I barely had enough sleep then still have to perform so many things.

But luckily that now is sort of my lull period in which I can slow down my pace to catch up whatever I need. Then last Thursday during my off day, went to Malaysia for a day to jalan with 2 of my colleagues to rewind especially for me after 1 long week of hectic schedules.

Then I also had revamp one of my blog in blogspot by changing the layout but sad to say, still unable to find a day to fine tune it to make it more perfect. By the way I think I've penned down too many and maybe some of you bloggers are already starting to curse and swear at me. Hence shall stop here for the moment and shall share this meaning quote with you all.

"Cease, warring thoughts, and let his brain
No more discord entertain
But be smooth and calm again."
