all i need is the air i breathe




the word on Saturday, July 09, 2005 is:


have managed to reach the end of the week without doing a single piece of work! feels almost like a holiday really, except that it's not. also, there's the slight dampener of a thing called prelims, which, as drilled into us for a combined amount of 3 hours by various tutors, is Very Imprortant and requires More Effort. which means that i'm probably in for some major ass kicking if i don't start straightening my work out. and therein, of course, lies the problem.

anyway, the week's not been a bad one, really. in fact there've been practically no proper lessons apart from commontest debriefs and 'pep talks', which are both more an exercise in boredom than anything else involving braincells. oh and then on thursday we had this bio prac where we got to culture our very own glow-in-the-dark E.coli bacteria, which was pointless as far as learning anything was concerned but enriching as far as fooling around in the lab was. it was particularly so because we had free access to crushed ice, which of course spelt death and destruction because we proceeded to spend the next hour stuffing them down each other's shirts. and, um, the added (dis)advantage for girls is that we have extra places for the ice to get stuck in when stuffed down our shirts, and this is inconvenient because it's a pain to remove and also leaves a highly disorienting feeling of coldness when melting :p for me the perk was almost getting away after 3 attempts at revenge were foiled by Screaming. haha it's too bad that some of us are just naturally lousy at these things!

yesterday was also good cos it was a special day involving a movie and nice dinner! was quite lucky about the movie too cos we were actually supposed to have chem prac until 1.55, which would have been a problem as that was the time our show started. thankfully though, some cunning scheming and psychic powers paid off as we somehow ended early and managed to get to our movie with a comfortable amount of commercials ahead of us even! anyway fantastic 4 was quite good- the length was just nice for a mostly-brainless comic remake, and jessica alba and chris evans are both superduperhot- so there's something for everyone! plus, i had dinner with the best company after that, and so ended the day on a happyhappy note :)

oh, and i like beckham greatly but why london!!!
