Too much of a good thing really did dilute the utility gained from it. And I thought it was just an economical phenomenon. Took my first half day off work today! And my goodness, it was only a short 4 hours, but the impact was definitely more than 4 hours worth. I mean seriously, all I did was collect my graduation gown and watch a movie during the hours that are usually spent rushing work, discussing ideas, planning projects... All I knew is that when I met my friends for dinner, their immediate response is that I was so cheerful.
And it is true. This is the one weekend that I get to really rest up and do something I want to do. A type of weekend that appears only a couple of times a year. Or once a year, I am not too sure. All I know is that this is a rare opportunity, and there is no way I will not cherish such a well deserved break.
I know that after this weekend, after this 48 more hours, it will be the same hectic schedules all over again. Reality setting back in again, everything running at full speed again. Once again it will be expectations to meet, arrows to dodge, traps to avoid. But during this time, I thank God for the break.
