Time for FUN

Just for fun, let’s start with a riddle.

Until I am measured, I am not known. Yet how you miss me, when I have flown! Guess what am I?

- Answer: Time

And it goes to my favourite Chinese proverb - “An inch of time is an inch of gold, but an inch of time cannot be purchased for an inch of gold.”

Of course, I am not going to blog about the importance of time… however; I would like to lighten your mood so you can spend a few minutes with some funny moments!

Sometimes you just need to take the time to laugh; especially you have been working hard over the semester, right?

We’ve found a couple of humourous and inspirational videos, pictures and quotes for you. Let go off your worries, sit back and enjoy!
