i succumbed to the scissors again.
hehehe.i've got so many unaccomplished tasks floating around in my mind, it's almost bursting. articles to read, essays to write, movies/dvds to watch, books to read, places to visit, stuffs to buy... the list goes on. if only there are 8 days in a week, of which the extra day is classified 'weekend' of course.
it's been only about a month since the trimester began and i'm in need of a break already. i wish time would pass faster so it'd be the holidays again soon, but then there are exams/deadlines that come right before that so maybe it's not such a good idea after all.

there has been a lot of changes in my life lately. it's not easy having to deal with them while trying to maintain equilibrium so my lifestyle wouldn't change too much. but well.. i'm learning. unfortunately, the stronger i try to be on the surface, the weaker i become inside; my moods swing from cheery and relaxed to insanely negative in split seconds. i find it difficult to answer sincere questions of
"how are you?" these days, because while i have not been
affected to the extent that my world has turned upside-down, it gets pretty straining both physically and mentally sometimes...
ignorance is bliss, only
after you've found out the truth.

i extracted my upper left wisdom tooth yesterday.
despite all the horror stories i've heard from my friends, i felt rather light-hearted as i walked into the dentist's room.
i was kind of prepared to go through a 30-45 minutes long battle - between the dentist and my tooth.
i closed my eyes during the crucial parts of injecting and tugging, refused to look at the tools he was using and kept telling myself, "the worst has yet to come"...
so imagine my shock when the dentist's assistant told me, "okay we're done!" FIFTEEN MINUTES later!
hahahaha there was no drilling, no insane pulling, no huge pliers inserted into my mouth, no stitching.
the only part that hurt the most was the anesthetic injection, which felt somewhat similar to the sharp pain you feel when the tail of a fried ikan bilis get stuck in your gums all of a sudden as you're enjoying your nasi lemak lunch.
i was kind of glad it was over so soon and painlessly until i woke up this morning.
the soreness at the back of my mouth, very near my left cheekbone, made it impossible for me to smile or even open my mouth.
all i can put into my mouth for lunch was plain porridge, which had to be mixed with cold water by the way.
i can already imagine myself having porridge for every meal, probably for the next 3 days... oh my.
the only thing impossible to get mad at:

finally the school has shed some light on the whole issue.
we ALL, and i mean the whole cohort, had to bear the consequences of one person's misdeeds.
of course, we all couldnt take it lying down that we had to take our exam all over again when it isnt our fault... but what's done cannot be undone and the executive dean seemed really sincere in helping us resolve this issue the best he can, so i guess it's give and take.
today was the start of my new trimester!
had 2 lessons in a row and boy, im already feeling the pressure.
lots of readings and assignments to be done, tests and presentations coming up...
but it's all good - pressure makes me feel like a university student all over again.
hahhaha sad but true, pressure motivates me! (but
stress is a totally different story...)
anyways. i have lots of free days this trimester!
there are several morning classes and on
most tuesdays, thursdays and fridays, i've got no school! which makes it somewhat like a 2-day week. lol
but like how i've been telling myself since my first trimester ended, im going to study much, much harder this time.
no more procrastinating (okay, maybe
lesser will be a better word...), im going to do my pre-lecture readings and start on my assignments early!
oh and im going to be jobless 3 weeks from now. sighh.
im gonna try hunting for a part-time job selling cookies/ice-cream/yoghurt!
or maybe i'll just work at subway. haha!
oo and i just have to say this: just like there are Apple fans out there, i would like to declare myself a Nintendo fan!
yes, i love my DS and have recently fell in love with Wii. hahhaha
and because my mum loveessss Cooking Mama, she has agreed to getting Wii!!! woohoo!
hmmm. im actually craving for Kungfu milktea, chocolate milk and marina's steamboat bbq now....
