The past two weeks have been somewhat more relaxing for me than usual, as i was having reservist. It's a tad disturbing that in someways i've had a more enjoyable time these past two weeks than i've had at work, because one could argue that by extension, i'm better off leaving my job and signing on with the SAF instead. But of course the two weeks is a far from accurate picture of how life would really be like, and if not, truth be told, at least for a split second, i'd be tempted to make the switch.
Perhaps that split second would have come when i somehow managed to do relatively well for my ippt. The run in particular went far better than i could ever have expected. For starters, i came in first, which i don't think has ever happened before. More amazingly was the fact that i ran more than half a minute faster than i've run in living memory, probably attributable to me running longer distances recently. What really counts, though, is not any of this, but the fact that i managed to siam having to go for remedial training, which i was threatened with after having failed my previous ippt by one sit-up.
Anyways, while i'm definitely somewhat dreading going back to work tomorrow, after two weeks of relative mental vacancy (though the first week was spent desperately trying to visit some important marking), i'm also looking forward to seeing my students through their final exams. It's really just a matter of weeks before that's all she wrote, and hopefully after getting back their results i'll be going back to see them really raring to go. Hopefully. Heh.
