this has not been a good week so far

This week ended and started out pretty badly. I was studying in Liang Court Macs without an MP3 player. The up-side is that the radio in Macs was playing some really cool songs and that kind of perked up on my readings. I finished a huge chunk of chapter for Gender and started on Urban. Waited until 8plus for dinner. Was famished by then and yet still no gratification when the dinners came. It was a crappy Saturday.

Sunday was spent studying at home the entire day (couldn't concentrate). Met Chris for dinner at Chong Pang which was the only highlight. Pigged out at rojak since it's been ages since we had that and ate our childhood food. I remembered how my mum and I will always eat chee kueh after my swimming lessons and I'll always request for the rojak =) tried my best not to tear.

Monday's gender paper was a massacre. It was massacred. I was massacred. Yes, I think the excessive verbs were necessary to express my feeling. It was HORRIBLE! Absolutely horrible. I didn't have time to finish what I wanted to write and it left me largely unfulfilled. Walao, 7 news articles by the time I finish reading I had so much ideas to the point I didn't know what to write first. Dwiddled for about 10mins and realised I only had 30mins left. It was a horrific experience. However, going back to YJ made me smile. I'm happy that I'm called back to run the concert. It's the 25th anniversary concert and from the looks of it, the 3 figured budget ain't gonna be enough. I'm really proud of the YJ band alumni. I think largely thanks to guanyu for getting everyone together. The least I can do is get the band room on Saturday for us to practice. I'll handle the adminstrative stuff - should seriously consider a career in being a Producer.

In any case, my evenings were spent figuring out the complex readings for Urban. I almost threw Peterson and Castells out of the window because I don't understand a shit they are talking about. Ok, fine, I was pretty drained by then anyway and my concentration is lost. Furthermore the excitment of the concert kind of distracted me. Called YQ for a last minute SOS explanation on the 2 buggers and I think I can understand a bit of urban sociology now.

So today's urban paper, I'm hoping that Prof Ho goes easy on us.

Wednesday meeting Jesline and Thurs dinner with my girls <3>

Saturday meeting guanyu for a theory lesson that, hopefully can help in my thesis analysis. It's so busy this week! Hopefully the rest of the week can be awesome to wipe away the disgusting weekend last week.

A note: I need a life. One that is less and more at the same time.
