I was feeling very wonderful this morning cos I woke up early and thus felt very invigorated. Actually it's not really considered very early by any standards, but 7-8am is quite early for me since I've been lazing in bed for too long. I might try to return to my sec sch/jc pro-ness of being able to wake up around 4-5am to go to school and still being able to take it. (Ok la, except for the dozing off in class.) But it might help for these few weeks, if I reduce sleeping time it could greatly increase the amount of time I have to study. In any case, I love the feeling of waking up early. In the beginning it's quite sian and I always feel groggy but after I get used to it, it's actually quite refreshing. Nowadays the sun rises quite early too, so I feel more motivated to wake up... compared to in winter, when you wake up at 7 or 8 and it's still dark outside. How depressing.

Anyway, I was feeling very fresh and happy... managed to concentrate on reading for the longest period so far. Current count: 424 pages, or 9 chapters, left. That seems like I've done very little only because I've been slacking for the whole evening and night, and I took a really long nap in the late afternoon. I really achieved quite a lot this morning, just have to delude myself a little and think that tomorrow's going to be a better day.

On the other hand, I have been feeling rather disgusted at my increasing pigginess. I ate two sticks of ice-cream today... and tons of other snacks. People always say, 'Aiya, don't worry la, when you study and become stressed, you'll lose weight liao.' They are so wrong! Because when I concentrate on studying, or become stressed, I become more and more tempted to eat things. Of course the best way to solve this is not to buy those snacks. But without any snacks around at all makes me very restless, and I will feel quite sad when I want to eat something but there's nothing for me to eat.
