After quite a stressful period of time, i handed in my portfolio for the review panel coming up. Now i need to prepare my powerpoint presentation and do some back-up reading for the day…more at my pace though. I wrote an email to Colin the other day (when things were still seeming daunting with laptop breakdown and a lot of work to do) and in that email i wrote sth that i want to cultivate more:

“stress is part of being alive. I seem to be becoming more stoic and  to be taming myself
against the ‘disasters’…maybe there seems to be a shift, as if am becoming more accepting and tolerant of the chaos.”

I seem to have moved from enthusiastic (idealistic) to cynical and now to stoic….(too many Greeks around once again!)
