Feb

tomorrow marks the end of the Chinese New Year (a.k.a. 元宵节) a pity I didn't get to visit some relatives this year. so generally, it's been a pretty lackluster Chinese New Year. mid Feb, there's a day when guys scream and girls grin -- the overhyped and commercialized Valentine's Day. even though everyone knows that (even the girls), it is still imperative for couple to celebrate it together, exchange gifts(or it may be one-way) with sweet kisses and heart-warming cuddles. because it is Valentine's Day.

this weekend is very very short. I left school at 8am on Saturday and soon, in 2 hours' time, I'll be on my way back to school again (it's just 24 hrs after I got home). the NTU TaeKwonDo Open is really taking up a hell lot of time and draining most of my energy. being behind in lecture is nothing new, but this sem, I feel really stupid. like dumbass/retarded stupid. for instance, I can't concentrate in lecture and understand the notes at even the 2nd or 3rd go. I hope TOC will end well and end soon, I hope it'll be worth my time and effort, I wish I'd never joined...

talk about school work, I was reading lecture 3 notes last night (lecture 5 was over already). I spent 2 hrs reading the notes carefully and looked into every detail to understand everything. I thought I've got it, but I couldn't even do the online quizzes. this is so demoralizing. but i shall presist...many assignments will be due this week (week 6). and many are bracing for the onslaughts of deadlines. like CGL said, "push on yeah"

I'm going to leave home in about an hour's time...grrr
