Daryl did a favour for everyone's dangerously overworked brains today by doing some sleuthing and coming back with some seriously hilarious results. At the end of today's econs lecture, he declared that the lecturer had said a total of 228 'kays' in that single 50 minute period. Awesome stuff. I'll get a picture of the page in his pocket book which is almost completely covered in tallys.
PW is killing me. It's like...some union workhouse thingy. With people sitting and staring so hard at PY's computer monitor. All. Day. Long. If you were wondering, non-living things aren't spared either. All my Saturdays for the past few weeks have been devoted to slaving away at PY's house doing our scarily-surely-overdue WR. We haven't even touched his xbox in ages. Which is kind of evidence of the situation we're in. Which is bad.
And because it's the entire Saturday that's used up, there's no time left to do my art prep. Which really really sucks. Prep is a time-consuming thing. Tell me how it's possible do a charcoal drawing in 3 hours. It's not like a math tutorial (sorry to burst your bubble, fuzzy. no hard feelings) where you can, um, skim over some parts when you're pressed for time.
Or if you're lazy.

Bye-bye, National Day holidays (before you've even ended). Hello intensive PW. Don't even get me started. I really don't mean to sound resentful, because I'm not.
Not really.
It was nice going back to Xinmin to see Mr C though. I miss all that bickering with him and driving him up the wall. When sarcasm meets sarcasm it's a lot of fun!
And I'll be back in 9 years to help him pack up his stuff. He'll be retiring then, so he muses.
Some people have their lives all planned out.
Yours truly on the other hand, can see herself making a living in the near future as a starving, struggling pavement artist. Which actually sounds fun. Well.
It's better than being a teacher.

Ta dah! My entry for the photography category for the UOB POY competition. Did I mention that I'm actually really proud of the whole concept I came up with for the photograph? Even though the quality and execution are kind of slipshod, to say the least! Boy, did I really work my ass off arranging all that measuring tape. No. That is not measuring tape simply wound up and thrown onto a pile of clothes. That took a whole lot of time, effort, patience and an overworked back. Belated congratulations to Longhao for winning a cert of commendation for his representational work in the very scary open category! That boy is amazing.
