Time doesn't fly. It flashes past.

Like I said, time flashes by. Lecturer reminded us its our last lecture today. I could still remember quite vividly that on the first lecture, I was thinking that Lecturer is weird man. I still think he is though. Bangkok trip, cycling trip with That Person and dinner at a senior's house still quite fresh in my mind. They all happened 4 or 5 months ago.

Ok. I will not disclose who That Person is. Actually, if I am not careful, I could have called two other people by that title. Experience says that I am biased towards people who looked like they could use my help or who actually used it. Good thing that after That Incident, I smartened up. Unfortunately, I do not think there will be any progress with That Person. Unlike what you may think, there is actually nothing so far. Like a cup of water. Slightliy better tasting than Newater, but a far cry compared to say a cup of strong coffee. Oh well. At least I can spend all my energy on work.

Perhaps I have not escaped Kyoka Suigetsu after all. I am still too laid back for my own good. Or is this the backlash from the years of suppressed laziness? Or have I reached the limits of my ability?

Then there is the Covert Op (pardon me for my poor vocabulary). I still have not figured out Covert Op. I find Covert Op kind of strange. At first, Covert Op seemed nice. But somehow, I find Covert Op strange since the later half of last year. Was it because Covert Op was piling pressure on me? It did not help that Covert Op's "other half" is here. Who knows what they are doing?

According to Covert Op, Covert Op's friend made a fundamental mistake on an assignment. I told Covert Op to correct the friend. Covert Op said no need and that Covert Op is not very close to that friend. This is not the first time I heard Covert Op saying people I thought were Covert Op's good friends as friends who are "not so close". Like I said, I did not really understand Covert Op. I believe that it does not matter if that person is your good friend or not. If that person has a problem and you can help, you should help. This is how I see it academically and in the lab at least - I am not very rich financially unfortunately.

Now, this question comes to mind: If Covert Op does this to someone Covert Op calls a friend, then Covert Op might do the same thing to me one day as well. Scary scary person.
