Sadness is...

Discovering that your normal workday on good days already clocks 9hrs;

Realising that your hourly wage is downright pathetic;

Suffering from chronic lack of sufficient sleep, tired eyes and frequent headaches frm working 10 or more hrs a day;

Realising that you have lost your love for food and satisfaction from eating due to stress and the need to weight watch (as it affects your ability to dance);

Knowing that the brief reprieve in Germany you're looking forward to will only end - all too soon - in more separation for months to come;

Bracing yourself to hang in there till Fri when the event is over, then hang in there till post-event work is completed, then hang in there till the performance (which you tried but failed to get out of) in end Nov, then hang in there till JLPT in early Dec, then hang in there till ballet exams next April.
