A Quick Review of Past Events

Random stuff happened during the past month, including the usual quarrels with mom. So here's a quick review:

First off, the job hunt suffered a painful failure. Despite my efforts, I received no reply from anyone. Yes, school has restarted and my class schedule isn't the best. I have two weekly 8:30 morning classes, including Fridays that also end at 8:30 (that's 12 hours in a single day, too bad I don't get paid for it)! At least it's spacious, granting me enough time to finish homework. I could even go to work - that is, if I do scheduled, especially after the stupid mistake I made during a purchase. Oh well. I'll have to leave that aside and concentrate on my studies. It's my last year and I have to do really well to get myself into a university and a well-paying job at the same time...

Last week Wednesday was Mid-Autumn Festival. At home, we don't do any major celebrating and so the day goes by like any other day. But this year, it felt different. I would always have lunch with grandma a few days before the event and she would always give us Moon Cakes (a traditional treat eaten during the festive event). This year, because she's no longer "here," I didn't have any. For the past while, I thought of her when I pass by stands or see TV commercials featuring the festive treat. I guess it's times like this when you realize how much you miss someone dear to you...
