Frustration, dissappointment, low energy, makan ati keep breathing in; when I think it couldn’t get worse, it does… The word burnout has been surrounded me for quiet some time. Will there really be ‘a light’ at the end of the tunnel?
Tried my best to breath out my stress ~ taking two days off from my 55Hours 55 Minutes Overtime #5555
A little gateaway from me for me. Let’s have a slow day, shall we 🙂
First day, chose to spend it with Andrea. Went to her place in Münster, had breakfast in her garden, dip myself to a lake then have dinner nearby. Never thought I would be keen with her idea to go to a lake, am I becoming a German??? #Losing identity.
A day of relax? oh no no no, DB Bahn opposed, its having a renovation on some rails, in other words I was bouncing back and forth to a new trains, accompannied by my almost dead phone #Mental panic. You know what, I will bring power bank no matter where I go. However, I still do my good deeds on helping a clueless young Spaniard who got stuck in the whole messy schedule, with a targe to go from Rheine to Berlin, what a journey #Phew. I’m petty ~ at least I owned it, please return me a good Karma, I’m so in need of that 😀
Second day I shared it with KK in Dortmund. Not knowing where to brought her other than Westenhellweg & Phoenix See, until Alina said bring her to your Housewand. Duh! how could I missed it!
She craved for Vietnamese, easy let’s go! Then she wanted to drink Alcohol, hmmm where…. although I’m not a drinker, I have one bar that poke my interest since forever, called Chinba ~ let’s do it! As we talked in English, we attract the attention of one regular visitors who is half USA and half German. He was sorry he hijacked our conversation, don’t think about it for a bit, we should be thankful to you, our night just went upward spiral from there on 🙂 Who would have thought, at the end of the day we stayed there until 00:00!
Perhaps the phrase “there always a light at the end of the tunnel” is indeed true ~ you just never know that ‘the light’ could come in any shape or form. I really need a break before my body give up, resulting I got two additional Bekannte! Patrick Wiencek ~ I promise you I will send you Postcards from every places I go, you have my word. Marc Naujokat ~ an inspirational guy of the night who gave so many tips to KK about studying in Germany or to me about Amazon, he is such a complete breath of fresh air. I like your enthusiasm about your work, I really hope our professional path cross again. #Universe, do your job!
Thanks for brightening my days, Fellas!
For what I believe in: “This too shall pass”
For now…. one breath at a time, Marlyn ~ one breath at a time 🙂
