It's a long time since last time I posted a blog--even can't recall what I wrote last time.
This is not because I'm tired of blogging but of the limited time and energy. My life is not super busy but all the time the chores can keep you distracted and you can hardly focus on one thing.
One month long winter break, my first holiday in US, just flied by. I'm now trying hard to remember something that I did during the break, I do remember several however without the feeling of achievement with any one of them. I made a study plan at the beginning of the holiday,including what to learn, daily time table,etc. I was dedicated and decisive that I was going to learn a lot! Actually, I did go to school library everyday when it was open, spending almost whole day there. There were few people like me kept going to school during the break, so I was always alone.
People who noticed me may think that I was really hard-working. However, the bad thing is that I did not study effectively at all! Surfing the Internet and online chatting always took a lot of time of the day. It always happened to me that at the end of the day I could not tell what I learn that day... Finishing reading The Little SAS Book is the only thing that I achieved this winter break regardless how well I read that book and how well I learn from it of SAS programming.(haven't finish the reading summary!)I didn't touch Theory nor Applied or Epi II, which were all included in my study plan. If the working described in the plan is hundred percent, I guess 20% of it was done. This's how terrible I did on my study.
The first week of the spring semester has just pasted away. This semester I luckily got a TA job from which I can benefit a lot for the recent. The TA job is not hard, but can not be said to be easy. At least 10+ hours of my time is occupied by it which means much less time for study compared with last semester. And I have to change my daily life schedule a lot which makes the new semester stranger to me, feel like that I am just a freshman and need to adapt to this new kind of life.
Not only the study, yesterday I move into another apartment, share it with another Chinese student here. So actually my life has totally changed in this semester!
Right now sitting in the dark room with only my lamp on, I'm thinking about the passed week,nothing makes me feel good. I don't feel comfortable of this new life right now. I am and going to do some adjustment to it. Hope things will turn out to be better very soon.
