Quite a few of my friends have been giving me constant encouragement over the past 2 weeks, be it over MSN, in blogs or in verbal form. And not forgetting the fact that they always remind me to go home when the clock shows it's 10.30 pm. Their kindness forms a very important motivation for me to complete my work, because without it, I would be feeling upset all the time and not be able to focus on my work.

Thank you. Each and everyone of you. It really makes my day to see your messages.

No, this is not some belated April Fool's joke. That 'joke' is not funny anymore.
