Pausing For a Reflection

My mid-semester exam is 2 days away from today.

As I was burying my head in my books, I found myself cursing and swearing.
KNN! What the hell?! How many names, structures, theories, rules, mechanisms (and the list goes on...) must I stuff into my head.

Then, I paused to get a drink from the kitchen. And a moment of reflection came upon me.

I remembered cursing and swearing to myself before. But there was a stark difference then. Then I was covered in camo, wearing a green set of uniform unwashed for 2 days and with a pitiful amount of sleep. That was then.

I took a sip from the cup of tea.

Thank goodness.

Why am I cursing and swearing to myself for?

I went back to my books with a lighter head and in brighter spirits.
Count your blessings Chern. Don't be a fool.

A PICTURE TO CHASE THE BLUES AWAY...

8 DEADLY SINS

1) Knowledge without Character

2) Pleasure without Conscience

3) Science without Humanity

4) Commerce without Morality

5) Politics without Principles

6) Religion without Sacrifice

7) Wealth without Work

And the DEADLIEST of all,

8) Life without Love

Are you guilty of anyone of them?
