Just to pen down a few thoughts before this weekend is over.

Today is laze around day. There are actually other ways to put time to better use but am just tired. Today is the third Advent. "Advent"s are Sundays before Christmas - four Sundays to be precise. 

Very soon Christmas would be here and it would be the beginning of a new year. I usually get pretty sentimental around this time :) One year is over and what have I done for my doctorate so far? Frankly speaking - nothing much. However, I did learn much concerning automation industry this year. The department would be having "Doctoranden Kolloqium" meaning a discussion for doctorates and I am wondering what can I say about my progress for the past one year. Nothing much... gosh... perhaps I can start talking about how should I progress. Slowly, I am understanding Sian Lun's position and my question "Why is the progress so slow?" is being answered. 

Eventhough I am sometimes a little tired with "no progress", I am still grateful for what I have - family, wonderful hubby, good health, joy, enough to eat, able to sleep, lots of laughter and of course a still small voice knowing that I am God's daughter.

I am happy and contented with what I am having right now and I am
looking forward for the coming Christmas and New Year holiday. Perhaps this coming break would do good to my strategy for my studies.

Everyone out there... Remember Jesus as we celebrates His birthday!
