A good idea to keep it at bay my friend. Yeah, I remember that you mentioned the UNISA job and so congratulations. Soon you will be completely familiar with the article presentation system and just maybe you will again have a few winners.
Yep! Let me know!
!BEER
I am so sorry about this almost two-week delay in response. I also almost did not post anything. It seems like time management just flies out of the window in crunch times haha. I am flying to Pretoria at the end of the week, and I still have so many things to do.
Life waits for now one right?
I will let you know how things go! I am having a lot of beneficial conversations with some big names in philosophy and other areas of academia. They seems to like my work. There is also talk about beginning an association for philosophical counselling in South Africa between other big philosophers. So, there is some light in the tunnel!
I hope you are doing well?
Well, think about it this way, you have escaped the hassle of the power cuts, as we are supposed to be used to it, but it remains to be a hassle to get things done.
So I presume that you are in Pretoria now?
It seems that you are on the right track, and an association of philosophical counseling might just be what the country needs. I am glad to hear that they like your work, as that is always good news.
I am doing as best as I can, and you are obviously doing the same under the circumstances. So just keep on going. !LOLZ
Just keep jumping! That is my life motto now.
Not yet, I am flying on Friday evening. For now, I am running around trying to get everything done in time. Time management, as I said on another comment in discussion with Joan, is a rare skill. Even with it, it seems that time runs out too quickly.
When we get back in the Cape, we should meet up again. I will sit together with my other half and see when we both are together in the Cape.
A good motto, and so strange, as I have just now discussed the flying time lately with another friend on hive. So lately you just keep on jumping and the time just keeps on flying !LOLZ
Good idea to meet again and fare thee well.
That is the problem, right? For some reason it feels like everything is just speeding up. My dad and I both feel close to burning out and it is not even close to the end of the first semester, in fact only first term! Three terms remain. But these are silent wakeup calls to react before time runs/flies out!
Oh yes, the rush has increased 10 fold, and be warned that a burnout is not a thing to be played with. Been there and got the medal twice, so it's my duty to warn you about the aftereffects.
Sorry to hear that your dad is also taking strain.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. Yes, it is never nice to go through it yourself (me) or see others suffer from it (my dad). But in the end, if it makes us sleep a bit better knowing that we put in extra effort for the right reason, then it will be all worth it.
But you are right, you cannot burn the candle on both ends and expect to go the extra mile to help! I always like to use the analogy of a car, you can only drive so much on one tank of gas, and you can only go so far without servicing it.
