i'm supposed to be doing my readings but i'm blogging instead.
been here since 10 in the morning, and now it's past 4 already. in that time i've been writing cards, had lunch, read only 4 pages of readings, napped for over an hour, printed notes, wasted time, and i'm still wasting time. the amazing thing is that i'm blogging first time on my cutsie lappie! haha. it can be very trying since the buttons on the keyboard are quite small, but it can be done!
thursdays are nightmarish because i start at 8am every thursday. that sucks since that would mean leaving home even before the sun is out. on even week fridays i start at 8am too, so sometimes i start at 8 two days in a row! okay well, at least all the nonsensical and unnecessary stuffs that bogged me down during the holidays are now history, although there's still a few things to tie down. silat training has started once again, and even as the 3 of us are trying our best to do as much as we can, things can get very stressful and taxing at times. not like anyone really understands it anyway.
for this semester, i'm taking 3 political science modules and 2 history modules. i think the only interesting ones are the history of the usa and the politics of china. although the lectures haven't really been a blast, at least from what i've read so far things sound rather interesting. i can't really say the other modules are drab and boring, but they've yet to capture my imagination yet in any way. but so far so good i suppose. other than that, mine and nana's timetable don't clash for most of the days, so i shan't see her much in school i suppose.
other than school, there's been nothing much except to catch the olympics. haha. but it's been great watching the olympics! it's not like i can watch beach volleyball, table tennis or even swimming live so often. it's been quite an event. with phelps becoming the greateast ever olympian, and bolt breaking the 100m sprint record (and from the looks of it he could have actually run faster! how scary is that?), the games have been a spectacle. watching the chinese weightlifters in action were mind-blowing too. i still remember that judo gold medal match in which the guy won in 13 seconds! freaking 13 seconds and he won a gold medal! and the amputee who finished well in the 10km marathon swim. all these are amazing feats! add to that brazil played horribly in the men's football against argentina. haha. and it's extremely surprising that silvestre has joined arsenal! haha, totally out of the blue kind of transfer. oh well, they have still yet to find a good defensive midfielder so i doubt silvestre's the last transfer of this season.
okay so that's all. i should really get back to doing readings. toodles!
