Im exhausted , the assignment which is due in tomorrow is ready but the presentation needs to be done , its taken its toll , my body hurts and my eyelids feel as heavy as garage doors. Its been two continuous days that i have left the house at eight thirty and returned at 11 just barely dragging my feet in. Its been two continuous days that i have felt guilty for not being able to go out and buy fruit for my pregnant sister and for making her eat her dinner alone.
I know that tomorrow my presentation wont be the best and that there is a weak link presenting for us , but then i have also learnt that its not all about marks and sometimes its more fulfilling to see someone try to improve oneself then too see the marks. So by choice i choose to see it through .
I have struggled through these two days knowing that they are looking up at me , not in admiration but in distress, or maybe thats just something that i have set in . Anyways I also know that tomorrow will be another in a series of long days , with another assignment due and then exams following in another 10 days.
I can see the shattering hours ahead of me but then I wonder whats in it all thats making me smile , thats making me take pleasure in the aches that i have , in cherishing these laurels and that makes me feel that i will ride this through .
Ans so i smile and now ill go and take my drag , cos my eyelids might be heavy but the heart feels light and maybe thats all that counts.
Goodnight ladies and gentlemen
