i can't believe i just rejected a research project. what in the world am i thinking??? so many students out there would die to have the offer for the project T.T it's under such a prestigious professor and at the cool science labs of lawrence berkeley labs, and it's on superconductors and has real-world applications! sigh.
i'm hoping to get another research project though, and this one i got offered would take up too much of my time and i have to travel up the hills to the labs, which would be really time consuming too. i don't really want to compromise my studies, especially since i'm alrd overloading and taking really hard classes that can only get harder from here on, and i still want to do tutoring and a lot of other stuff, and apply for internships and go for career fairs etc.
i feel really bad though, the scientist spent quite some time explaining the projects and bringing me around the labs. if only i had more time for me to decide, if he gave me till next week for me to confirm whether i got the other project, i would say yes. T.T
though he would be better off with another student who can commit more time and effort. T.T sigh. why i like that.

soprano
can't wait to watch this! i love the hunger games trilogy, if you haven't read it alrd you should! especially before the movie comes out hee, hopefully it won't be a letdown the way movies that come from books tend to be...
so far the trailer looks kindof different from my expectations, the setting looks a lot more modern than i imagined, but the entire cast looks better than i imagined so that's great haha. hair colours and eye colours are all right so i'm happy haha.
i got into gospel chorus class! it's a singing class that involves sightsinging and gospel music, and we get to perform on stage quite a few times as part of our grade! it required auditions and i was kindof sick and i thought i wouldn't get in because they had to cut more than 100 people from the auditions, but i made it! my singing wasn't as bad as i thought xD
anddddd i discovered i'm actually a soprano! soprano sounds so cool, like prima donna and first lady xD i got allocated to soprano 2, and i was like whoa. i always thought i was an alto xD seems like i can sing both! lalala i'm really excited about this class, first time i'm doing singing in a more formal setting, hope i'll get to learn a lot about gospel music and singing properly! it's been a while since i've done music, so hopefully i'm not -too- rusty, especially in reading music and stuff.
also, i was very touched by this song by demi lovato, "Skyscraper". Her singing style is so different in here, i could feel the pain in her voice and all that she had to go through to sing like that...my respect for her increased a thousandfold. i think she had an eating disorder and depression because of the pressure to look good in front of the camera. she has an awesome voice and i think she should focus on that instead though.
