a day of work...

i think i have passed the darkest stage of my depression. i feel much better now. yesterday i spent the whole day at home, helping my bf's uncle to translate english power point slides and script into chinese. i was asked to do this favour for his uncle on saturday night and it was urgent as he is flying off to china today. the entire translation took much longer than i have expected. altogether i spent more than 10hrs in front of my laptop and didnt have lunch or dinner until 9:30pm last night. it was kind of frustrating and stressful for me towards the later part because my hand was aching and i didnt have much time left but the work seems like never ending. also because it was a favour, i wasn't expecting anything in return. however, his uncle gave me some money and apologised to me when he came to collect the work. this is the first time in my life that i work for someone and get paid. i was worn out but glad.
