NUA in our Hokkien (Fujian) dialect
literally means to rot / rotten
somewhat similar to HEA in Cantonese
it is something like
you loiter / laze around
doing nothing and
rot your day away
exactly what I am doing right now
basically not sleepy
yet I felt that I have had a long day
since I woke up at 5:30am to
finish up a project due today
well that was partially
how my January was about
hey it's not right
I usually write this post on
the very last day of the month
and gees
half of February is almost gone
and I am writing the backdated
summary post for January
the first half of January
was totally so in the
long weekend cum
post holiday mood since X'mas
since i was given a rather
quiet week to start with
was really not in mood to work
then being crazily in love
talking all the way until 3 am
and waking up at 6:30 am just to
make sure he wakes up to go work
and abruptly falling out
which did give me a heart break
but yet that was the turning point
as i was back on track
and during the same week
got a piece of badly done work
rejected for amendment
which was like
yeah you got it right
adding salt to injury
i vowed that
that would never ever happen
ever again in my life
the silver lining about this
turbulent period was
i am suddenly the healthy me again
sleeping really early
and avoid staying up late
instead I choose to
wake up very early
start the day afresh
as early as 4 or 5 am
with a brand new project
and by 10 am
i am half done
hungrily ready for a proper breakfast
before I head back to work or
ready to head on to
do something else
as the month started off
really quiet indeed
it turned out fine towards
the second half
yet not too busy as
i was able to make time for
some Lunar New Shopping
and even traveled 200km down
for a meet-up with my fellow unicorns
which should have taken place
way longer time ago
gradually sticking to the
healthy bedtime routine
as we are moving into February
wait
February is half gone
soon it would be March
two short vacations
are about to take place
in a month time
hooray
for the time being
keep calm and stay focus
