Made it through the rough weekend... *gasps for air*



Started working on the english essay yesterday and finished with only the intro paragraph done. My other main points/arguments on the essay were still sorta iffy so I couldn't start yet. Instead, I started and finished my Japanese essay... My topic derived from Irene's topic, which was about Internet, while mine is about Homepage Visitors.. :P Lots of bs of course, but quite fun nonetheless. I could concentrate yesterday so I went and played some FFXI late at night to find all chocobo prices were as high as shit... bloody JPN players lol. Ah well.. XD



I woke up late this morning with a headache (slept too much again I guess)... started on the essay again and shut myself away from all instant messengers (by logging off of course). Started a bit, got stuck, listened to a few songs and started up again and it went through the whole day like that... pretty much. 'Cept I watched the first episode of "Smash Hit", BBS moderated and other miscellaneous procratinating things... BUT, very minor compared to the previous times. Went out to buy $16-worth of McDix at around 3PM (three combos and supersizing and everything.. most expensive mcdix meal ever. And finally I finished around 1AM (an hour ago) then I went on to do my english film review which took another good half hour or so.



I'll go memorize the japanese dialog and do my psychology paper tomorrow.

Had enough for today... treated myself to an orange earlier... mm~

Bad day...



Started with an argument with my parents about dropping Geography. Left me psychologically unstable... drove to school, got there to find that the girl I borrowed notes from didn't show up at her meeting spot. Got the results of my Japanese midterm... total disappointment. Then in the geo lab, the assignment was difficult and frustrating; made me waste so much time... I left around 1pm. Went and grabbed a better edition of the novel, Beloved, but still not the same novel everyone else was using in class. Started drizzling. Got to metro, walked around and loitered aimlessly. The longer we walked, the more uneasy I started feeling... We watched the dancing competition for a bit and caught a glimpse of a Z95.3 DJ... Old men, an old short lady and a ditzy girl budged in to block my view throughout the event. Came home and saw my dad; he saw me... we said nothing. Had two close encounters with other cars on the way there and back... Seems as though my mind was blank throughout the whole day. Now I feel like crap... with an english essay, english film review, japanese essay, japanese dialog, psychology paper due for Monday and Tuesday. I've yet to start........

After weeks of stress, more stress comes after...



Hmm, so I messed up my Marketing midterm #2...It was awfully hard compared to the first... it pulled down my mark quite drastically... Gotta work harder again... now it'll depend on my marketing project/presentation and cases with my other FOB team members... *sigh* so so so so worried. The big chubby guy that never comes to class an taw lai di yu no suggested a bunch of solutions to HIS lack of availability time to the rest of the group. The mainland china girl seems to feel that splitting up the group (so one solely works on the project and the other on the cases) is a bad idea, like me. Toothpick girl apparently didn't suggest or give opinion on this neither did the chubby guy's friend. Hmm, however they seem quite capable of doing it despite their horrible accents and FOB language. SO! I'm going to strive to do the least in the group by editing and doing computer technical stuff we'll require for the project. Lets just hope my persuasion works. Kekeke~



When I wanted to give up on my Psychology, I didn't study TOO much for the midterm. Though, when I took the test, it didn't seem difficult at all -- I was WRONG (again)... I got the results back to find that I got a crappy mark AGAIN.



In English, we had to do a Mes en Scene, where you choose a photo that caught your eye and then you analyze it. I chose a Always Thong Pantiliner ad that I found in an old lifestyle magazine that was lying around. The greyscale picture had a naked woman with her back to the camera with only a thong on. Yep, how COULDN'T it catch your eye!



The geo lab we had last Friday was awfully difficult. I was glad someone took my usual spot and grabbed one right beside a bunch of brainy dudes. Thankfully I got some assistance from them though I took too much time doing the first time, I lost track and had to rush the end of the 2 hours. I was hoping I'd get off early to revise my english film review which I last minute picked a movie I didn't want to really review at all (was Infernal Affairs II btw). I arrived to the class late and rambled so badly, the teacher stopped me and began asking questions instead... urg, so embarassing. I had to made up a few reasons for the movie -- why it was good, why it was not -- and when she asked for examples, I froze. It made it too obvious I wasn't prepared at all... Bad day, bad day...



We tried out the new Bubbletopia that opened right beside Bubble World on Granville. The customers were mainly CBC's for some odd reason when we were there... They had a $2-$3 opening discount, which was kind of nice.. but NOT when when you have to ADD another DOLLAR for pearls! That was a rip off... However!! The drinks were quite good... :}



WE WATCHED INFERNAL AFFAIRS III FINALLY! URG, Leon doesn't look like he belongs in that movie. I didn't like the ending either... well I like Andy that's why. :< We also had BEEF NOODLES for dinner that day and we tried to get in contact with Eleanor ALL DAY and luckily we were and she came. ....NO! I DIDN'T LIKE IT!



I didn't study as much as I should have for the Japanese midterm. I mainly practiced kanji but apparently there was this one particular character I didn't know, and that was for 'attention'... baah. Everything else went fairly well so I have high hopes for this.... lets hope it doesn't get crushed again by disappointment.



SO FINALLY! I got my geo weather report back, which I worked rather hard on to find that I GOT ONLY A PASSING MARK! The rest of the day was ruined... dammit to hell, the teacher's a prick. I recalculated my geo average when I got home to find that my mark's actually as bad as my PSYCHOLOGY! Holding this super shock, I think I'll drop Geo intead of Psychology now. I wasn't planning on taking summer school and I still have no intention to now but apparently a good teacher that lots of other people recommend is teaching in the summer. Now I just wonder if that same teacher'll be available in the Fall semester instead... should I take the chance and wait or take one course in the summer? I was hoping I'd only work in the summer, instead of a one hour class everyday that'll require either $2 for parking or $4 bussing DAILY, which is dumb, I think.



Mmm... Jo and I went downtown yesterday for the Hiring Fair. We parked 1200-800 = 400 digits away from the destination, so we had to walk in the rain. We arrived to find that the lineup was so long, we wouldn't be able to get in before it closes. We shrugged and walked back and visited a few stores along the way. We called up Eleanor and Fish to find that they were bubble tea-ing and suggested that we all go out and eat. We met them at Daimo, ate and talked and planned birthday things.



Jo apparently found a job classified that would suit me and surely it does... I can't wait to send in my resume when I get home~! XD

*listening to KOTOKO's major debut album promotion CD again and again*

Can't wait till the actual album comes out *dies*



Worked on my Geo Weather report all day... and only gotten around 2 pages done... wow it's... boring. I've yet to call my other teammates for the rest of the missing information from our charts damn... *looks at the time* I don't feel like it anymore... Hmm, I'll go shower and see if I feel any different afterwards.



Then I'll have to study for my marketing midterm...

Don't feel like that either... though I haven't seriously reviewed anything for that subject yet. That's no good.



I suddenly realized I haven't visited my favourite bookstore this month. Got a number of things to get... magazines and manga. Mmm... maybe I go down on Friday. Hn, I could have gone yesterday...



I'm itching to do some photoshopping... damn. Damn school. :<

*throws a tantrum*
