i started the day cleaning my room to making my laundry using my bare hands. i thought i can do the washing in the machine but i was greatly wrong because it was not spinning no more. so what i did is i sulked all the white clothes first into a detergent powder and hand-washed the colored one. i brushed all of the shorts and pants and skirts. i ended up during lunch time then took a nap. but what is not fun is that until now it is still raining. this rain has started since from the morning. oh gosh, my whole body is aching. and i am so tired to wake up and go to school for the grad practice.
is there any day that you felt so tired ever? share here and thanks!

Hi,
Most of the day end up with so much of tired and disgized due to long heavy crowded trains and long journey in the morning and evening. But for you, I think it is still better as it's one off activities. However, we all get tierd after doing something and it is better to have some time relax and continue work. Just relax for sometime doing nothing and lay down for 10-15 mts. or be free do nothing and it is really a relaxing experience if we do in between any house hold work or whatever we do.

Oh! No!
I thought you are a house-wife and now realised that you are still a student.
Mmmm, great, we are supposed to do all the hosue-related works and as long as we don't have a support hand, it is our duty to do all, from cooking, cleaning, washing, etc. etc. Anyway, be relaxed and try to adjust with the work with the limited time and try some short-custs to reduce the manual work and think of the best efficient way by reducing manual work and enjoy the work smoothly without much strain and pain.
Regards

hahahah! i am not even get married. i am still single - haha!
what am i thinking when i am doing such task is that the result of doing it afterwards. that is quiet a good award as your reconciliation for one self. so that is why, i never thought of how tiring is the work it seems eventhough you will probably get tired in the end but worthwhile. so thanks again :)

oh yeah, in fact, i slept after washing. i wasn't able to go to the practice. i just slept.
yes, i experienced that one too, where i headed to work at an early hour in the morning and gone to school after work then went home at nine in the evening. and during that time, there was a detour for the road was being renovated and fixed. so i got home at eleven in the evening. very tiring! but what can i do. i need to work and i need to go to school. afterall, i surpassed it and in fact, i am now soon to graduate this month. thanks to you for sharing your experience :)

oh yes, you are right pals. what are we being grateful from a hard work is that we ended finishing our works and that we will we will not think about it no more. although we undergo the same process later on but at least we are done with this worry and that for me, finishing my laundry. another day, another worries, another happiness, another accomplishments. we should be contented with what we have in a day and try to do what are the things we should comply all day through. thanks :)

The heat that we are experiencing in our country now makes it even harder to deal with things we need to do. I woke up early coz our helper usually comes in at past 6am. And even if classes are now closed for the school year, there are a lot of things that needs to be fixed in the house. And shorty before noon, I had to pick up the lotions that my sister in law ordered which will be sent to Italy. Oh good God, good thing that there was no heavy traffic along the way and I was able to come home by 2pm. The whole afternoon was hotter. I was suppose to do the laundry but I feared of fainting. So I just stayed inside my room and did Mylotting instead.

yeah, the heat of the sun make us so tired as well and feels like dehydrated and so thirsty if we can experience excessive heats in the street and outside the house. good that you spare yourself to do the laundry because it is not good when you came outside the house and the weather so hot then you will touch water.

i quietly agree with you. after the hardworks, we may get tired but the result is quiet fulfilling as well. there is not such exact or apt word to describe the happiness we feel after doing our works. life is like that in general, we need to work in order for us to live. and washing clothes is part of that task unless we do not wear clothes on not to have dirty clothes for us to wash. so thanks for joining here :)

i agree with you. to say, when i was in grade three, i already started washing clothes in the jetmatic pump. when i washed the clothes i pumped it hard and forcefully so that water would comes out from it. imagine, those days were the days (Saturday and Sunday) where i used my bare hands in washing clothes of my family. i am glad we have this faucet and electric water pump to pump water itself so that my burden in doing this task is yet more lighter than ever. thanks:)

Oh, I know how you feel! I have felt that this week! I was rushing to do some stuff and it's really funny how people decided to somehow disturb you all at once?! I mean, just when I was already very busy, people start calling asking for things and stuff! Whew!
I end up mainly doing work this week, I no longer have a social life, I guess. hehehee.. I just go to work, sleep and then wake up early to go to work again. I am welcoming the long weekend soon.
Perhaps you should estimate the number of clothes you need to wash next time. Just wash a few a day so that your hands wouldn't get so sore and tired. Anyhow, you won't be wearing them all-at-once. hehehe..
By the way, congratulations on graduating! Have a great mylot experience ahead!

Actually, I feel so tired now because I woke up at 4:20am this morning. I went to my hometown, 1.5 hours away from where I'm working to attend my son's school recognition day. I stayed there from 8:50am to 1:30pm. Then, I came back to work. I arrived safely around 3:30 in the office. It's already 5:42pm now and I'm so sleepy. Unfortunately, I have to work until 11pm tonight and I'll come home again tomorrow early morning. I'll only have a few hours of sleep again tonight. I'm going to take a long nap tomorrow afternoon at home to get enough rest. Is it your graduation practice? Hope you'll have enough rest, too.

You better had a good rest and replenish your energy.
Yes, there is certain days we are extremely busy especially
when do spring cleaning before Christmas Day and Chinese New Year.
The tiredness can be felt for the next two days. So, nowadays I
preferred to clean in stages. I also get my husband and my son to
help out. Sharing works is faster and fun.

Hi missjahn!
I have to travel for almost 3 hours in day. So when I come home in the afternoon, the first thing I want to do is eat some porridge and sleep. I'm lucky to have a wonderful husband who would prepare things, I mean dinner and everything including the laundry.
So when I come home I am a princess.
Have a great day!

One time when it was warm enough here, I decided to wash 3 of our cars by hand. It seems I got more than I can chew but it would be embarrassing if I stop my work half done. So after finishing it, I ended up with sore limbs. I am a small girl, so one car and 2 SUVs that are so high for me totally drained me. All those stretching and scrubbing are no fun.
