friday's finally here... highlight of the week... my hmb test... the bad news.. my lecturer has already predicted a '65% average' for this test. the worst part, i suck at genetics. oh well after 2 nights of cramming and lousy sleep.. i cant wait to get this over and done with..
went to the pontiac ice maze yesterday.. it was supposed to be the largest built in north america.. but it was pretty small really.. took less than 15 mins to get out... and that was also because we had to look for the posters to get the miniature 'ice cube'.. it was kinda low i'd say.. if i was taller i can actually look over the 'wall of ice'.. bt oh well its something different i guess.. hands were frozen though.. really should bring gloves when i go out next time..
its snowing again! weather is predicting 2 - 5 cm of snow.. but its prolly going to be a slushy considering its warming up a little over the weekend.
im hungry all the time! and its starting to bug me.. i was awoken this morning at 8 something because of my growling stomach! talk about hunger being an issue.. the worse part.. i actually had a snack at 4 something this morning.. the only consolation.. it gives me the comfort of believing that im using my brains.. cause i get hungry faster when im doing brain work.. or at least i believe i do.. now im hungry again... 11 am.. sigh... maybe worms make a better explanation..

how healthy is it to try and deceive oneself? do most people do it? been doing some thinking.. and i came to realize that i do it... often enough.. i guess the least i can be grateful for is the fact that i actually consciously know when im doing it.. but does that make it any better?

its snowing again... when is winter going to be over?
been watching 'desperate housewives'.. maybe that's the bad thing about hearing too much about a show before watching it.. expectations tend to get tooooo high.. im not saying its lousy or anything.. just that i guess i've build way too much hope.. so though it doesnt quite live up to expectations im not that disappointed or anything.. and well im hooked anyways :p
its the last day of reading week... a week where absolutely no academic reading was done on my part... i've not started on my bio writing project yet.. which is not a good thing.. and even my hmb which is due tomorrow.. is still not done... hai...

went out the whole of yesterday... time out alone is nice... havent done that in a long time.. pretty good day overall... except for the fact i had to wake up at 7 smt in the morning.. bt at least now the study's over.. so i can just kick back and wait for that cheque...
bt now im stuck with my hmb assignment... genetics is so not my subject.. considering the midterm is a week away.. i dont think i have much choice bt to finish up the assignment and start on my revision.. been totally slacking in this course..
havent started on my bio writing project yet.. that's another thing im not looking forward to.. i guess i still have some time to do that one.. but i'd rather get it over and done with a.s.ap. since i have another pcl test on the same day its due..
work work work.. reading week's almost over.. but i have barely touched my pile of work... procrastinating.... sigh...

i hate it when i cant control my emotions too well.. usually frustration and/or anger.. other than those two.. i can usually mask it well enough...
yang.. need to vent!

its been more than a month since i last posted..
went for a ski trip to mount louis today.. wasnt a great trip.. takes 2 hrs by bus to get there and the journey back took even longer... conditions werent good either.. most of the runs were icy.. and it was raining... definitely the worst ski trip so far.. was trying to get bertina to learn to ski.. she's pretty good at balancing ... definitely better than me on my first trip.. her only problem was she cant stop.. bt she definitely did well for a first timer.. she barely fell.. me on the other hand suffered 2 major falls... so now im stuck with bruised knees once again... its like a tradition or something.. everytime i have a ski trip.. i have to have bruised knees.. either before or during.. hai..
went for a hotpot dinner on friday with mssa.. the food wasnt great or anything.. then went volunteering on saturday at an old folks home... new experience.. and what a suprise the guy who was our 'driver' turned out to be guy in my chem tutorial last sem.. it wasnt a bad trip.. but it definitely would have been better if i have a better command of my cantonese.. and knowing how to read chinese characters wouldnt hurt.
