I need to sleep earlier....

I need to sleep. More. 6 hours each day is simply not enough for me.

I'm a pig.

Ever since I returned to teach, I have been struggling each morning to stay awake. It doesn't help that I have now less classes to teach, which means I am at my desk pretty often... zzzzz......

I resolved this morning to sleep before 11 every night... hmm....

It's almost midnight now. Heh.

...

Tomorrow is the beginning of the prelims. That means my 7 classes of marking is coming in. This Friday. And there's the two exam papers that I have yet to set!

Arrghhh!

Sigh... that's me. And I was doing anything but the above today...

I had a 2.5 hr nap... and promptly set off to put my newly bought lace to good use....















And made this simple pencil case for meself. Yay! I like how it turned out! Actually I tried to follow a pattern in a book (小さな布小物, p 35), but that didn't work too well...

Think I'm gonna make more for my mum and sis (if I can get around to that... ;D).

Used the linen from IKEA ($12/m) and the floral cotton from Arab Street ($11/m). It's pretty small and measures L20 cm by W7 cm. I used a 20 cm zip here.

...

Ok. I must sleep soon if I want to survive tomorrow. With invigilation going on, I will be even more sleepy!

I will work on my exam papers tomorrow...

Tomorrow.... yeah...
