So the last week or so has been ENGG, ENGG and ENGG. Oh, and a physics midsem. The number one thing I dislike about projects is that you can spend forever on them and they just don't care. If they don't want to work, they won't. Reports and assignments, at least, will be whatever you put into them.
Anyway, so while waiting for a go at the test rig this morning at 4am in the labs, I decided to have a look at how much time I've been spending at various places throughout the week:
On the other hand...even though the toil has been hard, I find that life has been going quite well :) I have been getting to know some of the other ENGG3800 people quite well (fellow campers-in-the-labs), and just being able to joke and encourage each other (at least secularly) has been a good experience. As I've been going through this semester at uni, the more I can appreciate the sentiment of Ecclesiastes:
12 I know that there is nothing better for men than to be happy and do good while they live. 13 That everyone may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all his toil—this is the gift of God.
-- Ecclesiastes 3:12-13
Tis a gift from God to be able to enjoy the ups and downs of uni, learning and doing ENGG team projects...because in the end, they're not the most important thing. Eternity is.
Hope you're all faring well in these last 2 weeks of uni before swotvac/exams, and may God watch over you in all that you do! :)
