About studying
There are days when I just feel so tired that everything feels like they are sinking down and down and down.
I guess that's what happens when you are working full time, studying part time, as well as having a sick baby at home who wakes up in the middle of the night ... ...
Sometimes I wish if I could just have a day to myself where I can just snuggle up in my blanket, watch some soap on iPad, and sleep the rest of the day away ... ... now that's a luxury I would not have anytime soon.
But that's alright, life goes on ... ...
A while ago, I said I have found my calling. Two weeks ago, I finally enrolled in a Bachelor course in Naturopathy. There, something I feel strongly about. Hopefully by taking that degree, it would turn my job into a career and ultimately a lifestyle. What I want is waking up in the morning, looking forward to the day's activity, enjoy the work I do, not just for the money. I think I'm on my way already! That's the thoughts which keeps me going on a day like this one when I feel completely run down. Of course no one notices much anyway.
Studying so far has been OK, I can listen to the lectures while on the train commuting to and from work, participate in online discussion forums when the baby is in bed sleeping at night, I still try to score 7 hours sleep every night, so everyday I average about 2 hours studying, make it 6 days a week that's 12 hours, enough for two subjects. The first two subjects I took were History of Healing and Human Biology, both are my weaknesses. Never liked history or biology, but understanding that I have to go through these in order to reach my goal, it's OK, I can live with that.
Let me remind myself I should write here more.

I always have been wanting to go back to where I stopped in Graphic Design but the older I grow, the more it has become just a dream. I never have the courage to take that step, worrying that I will not be able to finish.
I salute you, especially when you already have a baby and you are not giving up
good job and wish you all the best in everything, work study and family
