Congratulations on your thesis defense, ya =)

Today

Woke up from a really bad dream. Dreamt that I was browsing around Path, then saw her update with Rizky, "dapat diskon di hotel Hermes bareng sama abang-- lumayan lah meskipun ga dapat ke SwissBel"
I reflexively commented on her status "wahh uda cekin hotel aja ya sekarang"
Couldn't remember precisely happened next. Only remembered that she started cursing and attacking me and we exchanged insults and flamewars on the comment section of her status update.
Woke up instantly.
Shit, do I feel horrible.

But.
That shock woke me up. It was a nightmare, but I'm grateful for it. I'm thankful for I was woken up from an unproductive nap.

Whilst it was not more than 3 hours ago, after Good Friday, when I didn't know what to pray, just swore to God that I promise I will be productive and get my shit together. And all I asked was just God to make the watermelon at the fridge still edible in case I need some powerups in finishing my tasks.

Well, I took THE nap. Didn't get productive. But that nightmare sure did shock me.
Finished quite a substantial amount of tasks on my to-do list.
Thank you, God.
And I'm sorry.

That ChibiYarou-- Turned into Quite A Sweet Young One

She used to be quite the headache in my class. Precocious little rat. Thought of me as a nemesis, not as her teacher. No respect. Treated me as an equal and actually challenged my suggestions whenever she consulted-- anything. With me.

Anyway, then came her chat that read:
"Sir, how's life?"
And that's when I was battling depression.

She encouraged and motivated me.
That was sweet.

No Strength to Leave
