giving back

I was supposed to have a (literal) all-nighter for this study session in preparation for Greenlight 2 on Monday so I decided not to go home and stay overnight at the office. I figured studying at home was not that much of a success since there were too many distractions and having the bed just steps away from my study area hasn't helped me in the last week (I would go in saying it'll just be a nap but when my alarm goes off, I just get too lazy to actually get up and do more readings and topic tests.)

The entire week has just been so exhausting. I have to be in the office at 7am for my class and I usually get off at 6pm to around 8pm, tops, to re-take previous topic tests. So that's more than 12 hours of lectures, studying and exams each and every single day of my Series 7 Training life. It has even gone to a point where I already thought about voluntarily going back to the floor just because I could no longer cope with everything that's happening. I know I want this. I guess I just never thought I'd be endorsed this early and so I am stil not over that fact that I have no right to screw this up and waste the opportunity others probably just dream about.

So after having dinner with Beh, we dropped by the Greenbelt chapel just to revel in the quiet and just give thanks. I know I've been really whiny lately but I definitely don't discount the fact that I am lucky have been given this once in a lifetime chance. I just hope I don't waste it.

*Here's the pic I snapped just before crossing the bridge on top of the little pond. Btw, it was the first time I ever saw live ducks walking around in the park. They were adorable.
