currently listening to : hallelujah - jeff buckley
it is that hour of the night where complete silence greets you in this largely empty house because all its members are asleep. you try to focus, you try to be occupied, hell there's alot weighing on that exam on wednesday etc etc and then the brain just refuses to listen to reason.
so you sit there wondering what you could be doing.
then you hear this song and just drift off, not to sleep (you aren't tired) but you're just empty.

Listening to: Annie Nightingale on BBC Radio 1 (online)
Break Beats and Mixes.

Yes, she is THE Annie Nightingale.
Trying to study virology and perhaps some retake rubbish for tomorrow.

Not happy with new Pope.

Casino got a go ahead here in Singapore.

The world has been going to hell while I have been stuck in Uni trying to get through exams. I swear, what would you do without me? :P

as I try to study, the mind wanders to thinking about the more inane things, small trivial things that have no place in the mind right now, considering I still have an essay due this friday and my first of 8 exams starting on the 14th.
So the picture is clear, I have set myself up for sheer mugging these coming weeks and yet I keep dwelling on things like...
I pledged today that I will learn shorthand! Why? because i think it will be useful and it looks really sophisticated. And then the guilt-pangs, I still have a bass to learn how to play, sitting in my dorm room, just lying there. I am a horrible pig.
Oh and the parents called today. My Dad's secretary in HK is going on maternity leave for 3 months and he's offered me to be a temp BUT i have a general elective that I signed up for, leaving me to really not have those full 3 months of a summer but only like one (if I also include going to Brisbane for Australs). But I need the money and the experience....=X
Lush is absolutely one of the most indulgent bath product maker ever. They have fantastic names for their soaps and whatnot and they smell great! I managed to get a hold of a whole bunch (while burning quite a big whole in the good olde wallet). Am currently using Extra Virgin Olive Soap, which smells like one of those good old Amla soaps from India which I could have bought for a fraction but something in my weird mind tells me, for the price I paid it must be good. My verdict for now is that it cleans pretty well.
I need to master waxing myself unfortunately I am a disgrace when it comes to that as I just discovered.
On less self-absorbed topics, the pope passed away today. I first discovered that as I got an msn message from someone at 6 am. I am not much of a Vatican watcher but hey, the man had power and managed to influence the fall of communism in Poland and whatnot. I predict coverage in the paper would mirror the likes of the time Mother Theresa passed away, but lately have been a very incompetent newspaper reader (i blame it on staying in halls). I am full of excuses.
Oh, I never mentioned that I did indeed watch MDB weeks back, as well as Lemony Snicket. Just to keep up the ermm, movies watched list but I digress.
I will perhaps write an entry that's worthy of more linkaging and discussion in the near future. For now my hands are tired. >.<
