things to do....

The next few months should be a hectic period for me. I have loads of things to do -- things that I HAVE to do. Once I'm done with all the exam scripts which would be somewhere around the end of next week, I will have to put all of my attention to all these:

1. conference paper for the Jogja visit in June which is due on 31 May.
2. proposal for the 3K research, due mid-June
3. proposed syllabus for IMC, already overdue but I'm giving it a new deadline, 25 May
4. book chapters on Corp.Comm, due mid-August
5. Notes for my upcoming PLK class

But of course, I do need to take a break which will be the most important thing that I need to do, and must do. May be the list can be altered a bit...

Can't wait....

I'm so looking forward to a long break away from all these craps that are around me. I've not been feeling enthusiastic about going to work like I use to (yeah right!). Betul. Selalunya I would leave home at 7.30am and will be at the office by 8.00am. I will leave for home around 7.00pm. Well, bukanle spend all those hours faithfully buat kerja. Ada gakle masa bersukaria. But off late memang I have lost my rythm. Maybe it's because of the work that gets growing every second. Maybe it's the people yang many of them selalu get on my nerve. May it's the place... Or maybe it's ME.

God, I really need a break before a strangle someone. That is why I am so looking forward to a long break in June.

A good friend of mine once told me that at this age (hmm) we have to get away for a good long break at some far away places. So we have decided that our annual KPI should be one international destination a year. I totally agree with that and in fact we have already made that agreement. Tapi masalahnya whenever I have the time, no fulus maa. Whenever ada fulus (cukup makan je), no time pulak. So, camno... and now that friend of mine baru dapat kerja baru. I don't think she will get a leave easily. Nampaknya Xian, Seoul, NZ, Aussie, South Africa & yang sewaktu dengannya will have to wait. Apa-apa pun, Cotton Island, will be seeing you soon!
