Exhausted

It’s been a really full and trying day. i started the day off thinking that i would be working from 11, when it’s really 12. there were no customers till 1 either, so not only did i have a huge lack of sleep, i was bored stiff for a good hour and a half, and then some. Cookie decided to “cheer” me up by “gifting” me with a plate, because none of the shops we normally “borrow/lend to” claimed it. so he started telling me, “YOU NEED A PLATE!!”

“erm, i have 2 at home.”

“so? you’re a povo uni student! now you can have THREE!”

This idiot can count.

Rushed for classes, and i had a couple who sound like they were making out right behind me…. and i was seated in the front part of the hall. i was starting to grow a little testy when someone “whispered” to them pretty loudly, “shut up or get out!” i silently prayed for this angel. thank you God. i was starting to get tired by then, and coupled with the usual lecture slowness, i was slowly being lulled into a sleep.

don’t get me wrong, my lecturer was awesome. the class was great. infact, both lectures were uber. Law and Society had some movies up, to show the differences between a french court and the local aussie court. It also showed some fairly “dark humour” kind of tape. Some reporter caught a footage of a boy being beaten up. instead of lending a hand, he recorded the whole beating THEN called the police. and yet was still hailed a hero, because he caught such an awesome footage. oh, this video was based on a true story.

Am i the only one who see the irony here? and people wonder why nobody can be bothered to lift a finger to help the troubled ones.

in the mean time, my other lecturer decided to go through the process of policy making - thoroughly. it’s not like it’s a bad thing, but by then i was struggling to stay awake. while i didn’t manage to get any good notes down because of that fatigue, i think i can start making policies now in my dreams.

Oh, and as you can see, my readings have pretty much quadrupled, and i still have one more lecture tomorrow before i am done for the week =/

i just received this on monday. i been wanting to show off to you guys, just coz i am kinda.. exhilarated. This is the child i have been sponsoring since july 2004. see how she has grown! the bottom pict is the latest. she still can’t read yet, but just the fact that she’s now 4 warms my heart. i wish i can do more though, than just sending her money and cards. well, technically, since she’s receiving supplies, it ain’t purely cash. but.. you know, i kinda want to carry her around and just talk to her and just be more involved in her growing up.

Anyways, i will discuss more about classes tomorrow. time for a good sleep… till 7am anyways when i need to get up and make myself lunch or something.
