- eating loads (carbo,protein,chocolate overload and according to some: the more alcohol content the better)
- stops brushing hair
- stops looking in the mirror and grooming is last on the agenda
- stays in pyjamas the whole day when at home
- talks to self all the time. sometimes argues with self.
- forgets the name of people in the household and calls partner as "hey' and mostly with a request attached to sentence
- word finding problems
- stops in the middle of the road,and shouts "aha!/eureka!" and jots it down on the notebook attached to their hip 24/7
- obsession over word count and methodology
- hates the word "ethnographic, empirical and phenomenological" with passion
- and has plans to retire as soon as June comes.

i love these textiles decorated around our study building.
i love the intellectual banter and jibes tossed around when part of our brain is worried about hand over deadlines and increase in parking tickets in our workplaces.
i will miss this.

hi Patricia, thanks for cheering me on all these years..im almost there na gyud..i do love uni, esp meeting the people i know now..and widening my circle.
thanks Patricia..you and tita loy have always been so supportive of me..you are my second family:-) and, if the pciture was any clearer, it would warn you not to be sleepless and tired.;-)
You mean you're sleepless? You look great! I don't look that great when I'm sleepless. From reading the other people's comments, I'm guessing you have achieved a milestone. Congratulations, Chel! :-)

Waahhh, honestly, in person, this face has black shadows under the eyes and my skin is blotchy,di lang mklaro sa pics..thanks Liz..i have overcome my laziness to research by doing this, and that alone is an achievment for me,Liz..but its a struggle. im prone to doing other things than studying (old age,much?,haha)..thanks so much,Liz..thats a great boost of cheer from you;-)
I'm with you, Chel! I know I need to study more. I'd like to take some short course or maybe even pursue MBA (on days when I'm feeling ambitious, hehe), but I'm not sure my brain can handle it now. It think it's the old age. I feel that the older I get, the less sharp I become. :-(
