Exams exams. The bane of every student i'm sure. 'Cept maybe for those freaks who love these kinda things. So the slog begins. Been to the library the past couple of days or so to rid myself of distractions but at the rate i was going i was better off catching up with some sleep. More on that later on. I've been lazy today, not going to the library and haven't even attempted to pick up my books yet. So to rid myself of the guilt of not doing anything i thought hey, why not blog? At least it's doing something.
This semester's the most taxing to date, for sure. Maybe it's because i actually did some work this time. Or maybe because i'm lazier this time. Who knows? I don't. But what i do know is i'm more weary this time round and sleep this semester is optional. Nah i'm exaggerating. I sleep like a pig, only my sleeping hour's all screwed up. The main cause of all this woe is this subject called Design (aptly named), where we were supposed to design a household solar heater. Will not be a bore with the details, but suffice to say it's not as easy as it sounds. If it indeed sounds easy. Anyways, the project called for sleepless nights and gargantuan (always wanted to use the word) intakes of coffee, which has been my saving grace throughout the semester.
Coffee with marshmallows. Yes, it is as good as it looks.
My group mates
So what other noteworthy stuff that's been going on? Nothing much. Only.. MAN U won the friggin Double! We always make life difficult for ourselves but luckily we came through. I was lucky my housemates brought out their TV to watch their precious cricket (which sucks btw) so i got to watch the final. Albeit in freezing conditions. So i was sitting there balled up in front of the small-ish heater of mine, freezing my ass off. But it was all worth it. Just one thing - why isn't it enough to concentrate on celebrating your team's success? Why the need to taunt others? These kinda things have a way of biting you in the ass in the future.
Also, this happened a long while back, but i won a basketball tourney! It was a really small one, and the competition wasn't as fierce as i thought, but a win nonetheless. It wasn't that easy either, 'cause i was playing center and once we were winning the other teams found it necessary to push/whack/foul/hug me. I always despise these people, who only know how to play rough and dirty to win. There's a line between playing hard and playing dirty. Idiots. Anyways, despite all that, we won. It was a good team, everyone was passing and running around and playing good D.
Our prize. A bag, bottle and radio. We paid 5 bucks each to play, so couldn't expect much.
So that's what's happened in my calendar recently. There are more stuff to write about, but this is threatening to turn into an assignment-long essay. I guess i'll get into them when the spirit moves me. So now it's back to the marshmallow flavored coffee and studying (hopefully).
