my classmate and i  have agreed that procrastination is a mother of all wonders. we discovered sudden re-interests in games we haven’t played in eons, and managed to perform so many tasks with patience that is NOT related to our assignments.

isn’t that a wonderful thing? i guess it’s a motivation, and therefore they should set up fake schools to give us assignments that we may get MORE things done that isn’t related to that school!

i am just being silly. 

while doing my assignment in the lab yesterday, i was busy trying to do every thing else but my assignment. it was no biggie, i could have come home and get it done as well,  but i wanted to have the resources of the library close at hand. everything went to shits though, because i forgot to bring my wallet with my student id in it, as such i couldn’t even zap copies of the sections i needed. regardless, i sat in the lab, trying to work my way through the assignment as best i could. it’s due tomorrow, and i just needed some minor clarifications.

i managed to play around  with some of livejournal settings and skins, and finally grasped something that kinda took me ages to understand: those "customisations" really meant that you can change whatever the skins allow you to change. i know that kinda sound stupid, and i should have realised ages ago. but previously, when i attempted any changes, they were not obviously reflected.

of course, i decided to test if my options carry over if i change the base skin, and… it didn’t. and wiped away the options that i made, which got me mad.

so everytime i got mad with livejournal, i had switch back to my essay and start typing it furiously. not because i was all that mad, but because i type fast.

and this crazy lady beside me would suddenly turn over and look at me. from the corner of my eye, i could feel her peering at me, staring hard.

the third time this happened (i was messing heavily with the codes by then + figuring something out), she literally moved over to stare at my screen. i looked sharply at her, and turned back to livejournal, and started typing some inane stuff about crazy people staring rudely over shoulders. she frowned, and went back to her station.

when i finally decided it was a futile attempt to do my essay, and packed up and left, she stared at my station then at me again, as if i was doing something wrong. i have a feeling it might be because it looked like i was busy plagiarising. see, i brought my essay that was already corrected to be re-typed. however, i forgot to save my essay on the school computer, and everything else was home (another reason why i ended up doing virtually nothing). so i was re-typing virtually everything from nothing, and had to furiously "copy" from my draft.

but that doesn’t mean it’s her business either ways. 

i hate busybodies.

that’s what i was doing anyways, changing the colour schemes plus making 2 icons. i made a green panda avatar ages ago, but decided that it simply doesn’t suit the layout. so i made a pink one. somehow, this pink panda look fatter than my green one

but i am glad i adjusted the colours somewhat, and rearranged the settings. it was all too manly for my liking~

i have decided to make full use of my other blog spaces i have created. well not exactly full use, but just so that each post isn’t all lengthy and incoherent over here. i don’t really need to chuck all my lunches here after all besides, i decided to join a community there as well, so here’s my lj on my bentos.

 

i got back the draft i made for communication foundation. out of 10 marks (coz it’s a draft, and they mark drafts here for some odd, irrational reason), i got a 9, sans 2 marks for lateness (what’s new?). which effectively put me the closest to perfection i have ever gotten for any single essay so far (that’s not fiction that is).

 

considering the shit that i have gotten from another lecturer about how “singaporeans” and “international students” were “expected” to perform at a certain par, i am not quite sure how i should handle this barrage of hd the lecturers are giving me. would this mean they are going to expect more from me? than i rather be all reclusive and “stupid looking” like cheater is, until my final essay is truly due.

 

this is not to say, i am preparing to slack, or am not ready to give any single essay my full attention. however, each lecturers might see me again next semester. and if they expect me to fully perform up to this level as well in every single course, then that’s not possible. i only like certain things, certain courses, and obviously am only well-verse in certain areas of these courses.

 

if you put me in another course i utterly dislike, e.g econs, it’s not going to work out. i am not a hd student in both that, maths and anything that is related to econs, except perhaps bullshiting my way through it.

 

it terrifies me too, that should i be doing so well in college, is the uni level worth of marking ideals going to be vastly different? this paper, and the others, would i get a hd in the uni as well for them?

 

it pisses me off to have so many questions about it, but i really wouldn’t know until i enter uni.

 

annoying person in the library comp behind me has this meowing thing going on…. i feel like throwing this monitor at him.

 

i hate it when i don’t have the answers.

 

anyways, Don called me this afternoon, apparently i am working tomorrow ^_^ i know i am scheduled on fridays, but i am going in tomorrow afternoon as well. first time with the lunch babies, hope i don’t fuck up. w00ta….
