Joys of Procrastination

Sigh... well exams are done... wait whats this... 3 weeks till finals?? But i just finished midterms... Gah dang you Summer School...

Anyways All thats remains now is the essay... You'll prob be wondering Wasn't the Essay due like... this week (today actually). I really have no clue. I think the Prof had pity on us (its a killer too much stuff to cram in for one exam/test.) maybe he thought it was unfair to make us hand in an essay right after it HAHA... Anyways so he extended it by a week to Aug 1st. (but isn't that a civic holiday?? ) why yes it is, so now its 1.5 weeks.

Now wow i was like worrying before i noticed the date change... but having realised the date change err... was not a good thing. I've resorted to what a student (former) of Mary Ward does extremely well... PROCRASTINATION...

So what have I been doing?? Started an RPG (and i INTEND to actually finish it, I've never ever finished an RPG in my life...) Chrono Trigger. Gotta love those old classic games. so thats where my weekend was spent, well actually no... Family bought tickets for some Chinese Contempory Art performance thingy (that was bought a long time ago), so thats where i spent my early afternoon yesterday. Ah yes and theres the World Aquatic Championship thingy, and my families been glued to it (for diving). Oh and the Tour de France, gotta see Lance Armstrong's last race. So weekend is nicely all booked up, but nothing done for that Annoying ESSAY.

Hmm tommorrow is Tuesday, and pretty much i'm gonna be dragged out by two different groups of friends for tommorrow (no way i could have planned this, people love being spontaneous). Early part of the afternoon now is to be spent with the "Pool" group, and the later afternoon with the good old "Ward Uno group". So there goes my whole afternoon (morning is in class). So the question is will i be able to actually START SOMETHING tonight, or tommorrow... and actually its getting late right now sleep is such a nice comfort.

Time is fleeting, and so much distraction floating around...
BLAH

Of Oompa's and Owls.

Well after 2 long years of waiting the 6th Harry Potter book is here... YAY... bad timing though... Still got a Test and Essay in the next 1.5 week... also gotta finish the "last book" of the Cleric Quintet Series before i have to return it to the library (actually wait... Heck i don't even know if the librarians are on strike or not... better just finish it to be on the safe side). So yeah i got lots of distractions, and one does not want to be enchanted by magical powers and beasts at this time... dang...

On the other hand, still in my Test avoidance mode and allowed my sister to drag me out to watch Charlie and the Chocolate Factory today (err yesterday, its past midnight now)... Very nice i must say, fun and witty... Though I'll really need to relisten to those songs the Oompa Loompa's were singing as it was harder to discern the lyrics and probaly also because i was dying laughing silently.

Ah well lots of distractions around me right now, really need to be able to put my foot down and be prepared to say screw this and pick up the textbook for a more useful purpose.. Ah well we'll see how i'll handle this.

Blargh

There finished the 1st of two tests, next one is next weds. Not in any mood to start preparing for it or the essay due the week after.

Just wanna do something... hmm Gah. Tim who wanted to drag me out for the past while, has some other prior engagement tonight... (so much for hoping to return and get more manga's LOL)

Hmm ah well I've always got trustworthy anime, and still got my novel to read...

Anything to just get out of the heat, and stay in basement is nice enough i guess.

How time flies... It's death time...

sigh Mid-terms for Summer School again gah... didn't I just do them 1 month ago?? sheash time flies...

Perfect time for it too... When my morale for Life (in general) is dropping, and i'm even more worried about my marks and all, essentially within the next 2-3 weeks, I have essays, quizzes, and Exams totalling up to 30-38% (of my final mark) for each course, is "up for grabs", reading, studying is potentially very tedious (maybe thats partially my fault for being behind in readings... sigh), my brain starts getting conked out after 20-30 min worth of reading.

But hey on the bright side at this point Summer School is 2/3 done, and then I'll be free to do ... err i really have no clue. Guess I'll be rotting my eyes out on reading novels, manga (dl'ing and borrowing whatever i could), and anime. Maybe I should try and get more physically fit, especially since my friend in Hong Kong seems to want to drag me to the gym when the Fall session starts up...

Anyways... Theres my little excuse of a break (avoidance of studying), and time for me to head off to prepare my study sheet for the quiz tomolo, followed up later in the week with the study sheet for the test this thurs.

Fruit Picking and Wisdom Teeth: revisted

I'm just gonna make this short, gonna sleep early...

Yeah so apperently i'm the fruit gatherer in my family... So here's my bit of say for this years early summer fruit harvesting.

Having experienced what I would call a rather crappy and dry spring, its time to see what that led to... In simple words there is practically no fruit "harvest" this year... Last year was such a bounty for fruits... Went into my Strawberry patch every second day for 2-3 weeks, to get the fruits... This year heh not even worth picking...

Cherries thats where the fun is (or was)... To sit up in the tree and end up with bags heavily laden with fruit, this year I've done all my cherry picking in one session, and the bag is very light.

Sigh, ah well at least there WAS some cherries to pick, didn't even see a cherry blossom all spring ...


Anyways, So yeah lets take another looksee into my Wisodm Teeth "episode".

Haven't visited my dentist yet (still have no clue when, but my father did recently, so it should be soon...). Anyways today woke up to find that my mouth was sore... GASP the pain is from the Wisdom teeth area.... sigh... wonder's where this will lead to

ah theres my short rant
