Give yourself a break.

after the holiday seasons, i have just ONE advice to everyone.

give yourself a break AFTER your overseas holidays.

you know how people often plan their holidays swee swee so that they can squeeze as many days as possible out of as little leave as possible? i think that's just wrong. you end up feeling so lethargic and absolutely moodless for work/school.

and vacations can be really tiring stuff, especially if you try to max out the trip to go to every single place of interest/shopping.

so the way to go is, plan your vacay such that you do 1, or at the max, 2 main things a day. plan smaller stuff that you can do in-between or on an optional basis. and for the shiong stuff, spread it out to have at least 1-2 days apart so that you don't tire yourself out.

and once you come back from the trip, take more than the weekend to recharge. it it NOT enough! give it another day or two, preferably on mon or tues when the mood is usually very blue and everyone is whining.

trust me, you'll feel much more re-charged. =)
