sick sick sick.

YAY! A five day sampler of freedom before the Literature Modern Paper and THEN!!! I don’t know, something like half a year of sheer bliss (I hope). It’s just too bad…

mfa interviews + a levels = the pits.

Trying to prepare for Literature is frustrating – but a Ministry of Foreign Affairs Internship Interview just about an ungodly 3 hours away from Tampines and smack right in the middle of the A levels is far worse. And getting an almost-flu in the midst of it all is THE PITS. If I were searching for some consolation in all of these – its that I couldn’t really be bothered anymore what the outcome of that interview would be. Actually, well, it might have started as an interview? But it quickly devolved into a debate with an irrational smiley-bitch from hell…A fricking debate, can you believe it?!

HELLO Catty Humbug. Whatever. I couldn’t care to get in your good books.

list of things I wish I knew earlier:

Here is a list of several things I found out during the course of my A level’s mugging-spree-wannabe which I wish somebody had told me about way earlier:

Saw a rather amusing advertisement on the WEEKEND TODAY paper today:

“When life throw Lehmans, make Lemonade” – SUBARU

I bet the advertising executies up there all thought it a timely and witty pun; and to a very small extent, I think it is? But for its very unfortunate associations with the economics phenomenon/concept of “the Market for Lemons” – and isn’t the Market for Lemons where defective products are sold to the ignorant buyer or something? And isn’t the (used) car market always a popular example of such Lemon markets? Anyhow, I am rusty on my econs concepts (yes, mere weeks before the Econs A Levels) and too generally-unhappy to think straight. MUAHAHAH. okay, whatever.

a very good time to be honest.

Midway through my H3 consulation, Mr.Harris commented that I am a curious mixture of seriousness and frivolity – frivolity! Personally, I am telling you, it is all seriousness underneath. I think I am, essentially, an insanely ambitious and hungry person – okay, maybe ‘insanely’ is abit of an exaggeration. But intensely enough, anyway. It’s not a lack of will that I am ever mediocre, I swear. I’ve got will as strong as steel inside, I promise! Only, I also have a LETHAL lack of discipline and a fatal weakness for shiny, addictive television dramas.
