Goddamn Seasonal Shift.

[sechan19]

It's as good an excuse as any, I suppose.

For some reason, I've felt worn out and hopeless for at least the last week. Tired of my work and wondering what the hell I got into this mess for in the first place, etc. Practically the only thing that relieves the pressure and enables me to keep (somewhat) on top of things are my friends and Japanese action flicks. Mainly, I just wish I could hibernate until the end of the semester. No thesis rewrites, no grant proposal drafts, no construction of Silk Road seminar paper and paper abstract for submission to a conference next term; no more translation of devilishly difficult Japanese articles on the case of Crown Prince Sawara.

Like I said, I think it must be the ever-nearing winter season. I'll be a bonafide grouch until sometime in March. You have been warned.

i'd like to comment that I am also feeling totally lethargic about my work. weirdly, the only thing that makes me unlethargic is forcing myself to work. which makes no sense at all.

Nah, you won't. Clearly, we should have a mission to keep the grumpy amused and entertained. Since this is part of my self-appointed purpose in life, I shall encourage such behavior as much as possible.
