6th: chinese new year out, problems in.

I met with my supervisor. She quickly threw in her rules.

I must admit, we're in for a tough ride. But in all neutrality, the toughness of it means that we'll be cracking our heads more intellectually. Therefore it means there's always opportunity to sharpen our wits.

By sharpening our wits, I'm not talking about outwitting my supervisor. No. Our supervisor wanted us to do something on a 'fresher' perspective. She wants to break us out of our comfort zone. And to her, breaking our comfort zone means we have to do literary pieces that we've not been taught from our entire selection of materials that we've studied thorough the years as an undergraduate.

But I am not at all affected. My comfort zone is "outside" the syllabus. To yank me out of it means a literal death for me.
