graduating syndrome

2nd of feb. less than 3 month to end of NUS.

it's hard to verbalise it clearly but somehow i feel that ppl are behaving differently. first there is this never-ending talk about career, all the banking, marketing, insurance selling, entrepreneur stuff... during lunch, during any time... and then ppl are becoming emotionally restless... love is in the air... formation and breaking up of couples are not uncommon. it's like a bug that infected so many... not mentioning the phenomenon of ppl coming back to labs after office hour or during weekends, almost camping inside sch. we are all so busy with all these things. no one would actually stop and stop, sit and stare. there is this uneasy feeling floating around... melancholy about leaving sch? i think most ppl will deny. stressed by sch work? nervousness and uncertainty about entering the work force? or the anxiety of completing the second fyp? or maybe a bit of everything?

i dun quite like it, but unluckily i m not spared. probably we are all having this graduating syndrome.

I guess it is not so much the melancholy about leaving school or anything like this, since most are not really enthu about studying in the first place. But the fact is we need to find a job or something to occupy us from now onwards and hopefully it pays enuff, so i guess that is reason for all this talk you mentioned. Stress about fyp and school work stuff mah, well it does not really apply to all besides, it may not be so much of stress but rather there is work to do, so do loh, hence spending of long hours in school. Depending on the nature of the project, some does it at home or in hall while others in lab, just a matter of equipment requirements.

All in all, I do not really think that it is a syndrome of leaving school.
