hell month is almost over! what a horrible month. first week spent agonising over 3 presentations, 2 term papers, and one essay. 2nd and 3rd week spent agonising over exams and gip matters. and being unable to study much. i think i’ve surfed every blog/news website i can think of almost everyday. even went onto viwawa for the first time since like june. come monday, finally a reprieve, where i can finally go do all the things i’ve been planning to do.
1) READ!! right after the exams i’m hitting jp library to collect all my reserved books. then after that’s done, i’m going to attack the twilight series, heard it’s good. actually, i read the first book in the series way way before all the hype, when i could easily find it in the library, but now the waiting list is probably hundreds of people long, so i might just buy it since borders is having 3 for the price of 2 sale. haven’t bought a book for ages.
2) open a facebook account. HAHA. finally jumping on the bandwagon. i steadfastly refused to join over the years despite being deluged with invites. was even asked to participate in a discussion of social networking sites in psychology and media last semester because i was one of the rare people not involved in them. but since i’m probably going to china next feb for half a year, maybe now is the time. can keep in contact with friends! (actually i just paiseh to admit that i wanna play word challenge wahahah)
speaking of word challenge, the way it has insidiously intruded into my life is quite scary. i was first drawn to the rearranging words thing, playing muddled on my brother’s iphone while we were in the hospital waiting for the doc after his dog bite. next thing i’m watching mk play word challenge during our study breaks. then i come back to school and veron’s playing it during class wahaha. and then yihui asks me about it on msn. it’s like fate, or divine intervention, haha.
3)SHOP!!! one of the things that excites me most about going china is the prospect of cold weather for quite a few months, which means i get to wear long sleeved tops everywhere! ok lah plenty of time for this since i’ll only be heading of in feb. if i go. okay, it seems like a foregone conclusion, but weird to just declare it here before everything’s confirmed.
one more day to torture myself with studying! and i MUST mug as hard as i can for my last paper because it’s my only hope. this is the worst exam cycle i’ve ever had. but no matter what it’ll still be over in 37 hours and i’ll be free!
1) ooh i wanna read twilight too! lend me!!!
2) add me to ur facebook!
3) haha i keep imagining myself all bundled up and stylo in beijing’s winter wearing boots and knit jackets and scarves like all those american kids. but i think i’ll prob be cheapo and just get functional stuff in the end.
