I broke my own record, for taking a day off school for the first time ever since i came to MI. I'm not kidding; this is how sick i am. My fever hit a peak of 38.2 degrees celsius last night after i got back from school, and in my half-delirious state of mind, i could distinctly hear my mother muttering something in Mandarin which sounded a lot like 'She's like that because she's President. Tell her to give up her position to someone else....'. And it got me thinking....How people find it so immensely easy to blame NEC for every single screw up in their lives; just because it is supposedly 'the most time-consuming'. But guess what folks, i fell sick because of the crazy PW meetings for the whole of last week. Add to that the whole load of projects that we were expected to finish for the various subjects. Have i even mentioned that all the deadlines were either on exactly the same day, or just a day or two apart from each other? To some people (You know who you are), blaming NEC for your inability to balance all the aspects of your life properly isn't a very professional thing to do. Overload yourselves with commitments and this is the price that you have to pay. As for falling sick, my dear mother, EVERYBODY falls sick at some point or other. It does not make a difference whether or not i am the President of NEC. Period.
