My school term has ended and Easter break has started, which means there would be one month without lessons. While many people have gone travelling in other countries and such, I continued to stay in London, because I need to finish my translation work, and because my final exams start immediately after the break.
For those who were unaware, I took up a translation work from Singapore, where they throw me this 20k+ word language research paper and I'm supposed to translate it from Chinese to English. I have been slacking with the work, partly because I have tests and stuff in between, partly because I'm slacking :D But now that the deadline is approaching (like very very soon aka 2 days), I have been camping at the library and chionging the translation. I felt that if I really did camp at the library from morning till night I would probably have finished it in like 3 days or something. Just that in the day time I'm sleeping (lol) and I would slack all the way till night before deciding I should really start doing the work, so that's why my progress is still not optimal. I have done 32/44 pages already, well technically 32/42 because there are 2 pages of reference which I don't need to translate. But it felt as though it's being stagnating for quite some time already. Like yesterday I rushed around 8 pages and today I only did 5? So it felt like I was translating anything lol. I have resorted to starting from the back of the research paper instead so that I can feel better about it..
ANYWAYS TIME TO SLEEP I SHALL CONTINUE WITH THE REST TMR.
