it hasn't been a good week at all, in terms of school.
who had a good week?
utterly disappointed with the progress of projects and stuff.
my life seems to revolve around so much on the laptop that i feel zombi-ish.
researching, analysing and compilation of information all just gives me the shivers.
simply, reports and presentations are what i terribly dislike.
especially when the datelines are nearing;
sigh.

the thought of answering to other people's 'weird' and crude questions sucks.
when one has done something to help, at least be courteous and say, "Thanks"
it's not such a difficult word to say unless you're a dumb.
and i think dumb people have better courtesy.
basic manners lack too much nowadays.
i hate how this place is coming to.
it's crumbling into a place of arrogance and self-absorbtion.
how pathetic is every thing becoming.

of course there are those selfless times.
hanging out with friends not out of force or evil intentions,
but purely out of sharing thoughts and interest.
those are the pretty side of people.
but the ugly side comes like a never ending list.

yesterday was one of my unluckiest days.
i bumped into not one, but five total strangers who weren't the courteous people on earth.
i'll list 3.

1. when one blocks your way suddenly, please politely say, "Excuse me."
DO NOT make any irritating sound, even worse, squeeze your way through.
maybe that person who did that to me should be in mental hospital.

2. as one opens the door of Mcdonalds, it's only right to hold the door for the one behind you.
DO NOT rush to get through the door (especially when you're a 'gentlemen')
the one who hurried through before me should get to know what's 'ladies first'.

3. when one has not done anything wrong, i think it's better to NOT accuse that someone.
DO NOT be a kaypoh and say, "She did it."
the one who accused me of dropping the shop's mobile phone should GET A LIFE.
and purlease...you're a female, so get some nice clothes on.
some people wear terrible things.

talking about clothes, i think it's very much a large factor that creates impression on others. when i think about xiaoqi, i think about jeans and simple tops.
when i think about bethesda, i think about polo tees.
when i think about sara, i think about esprit and brands.
when i think about sabrina, i think about pants and more pants!
when i think about linda, i think about nike dry fits.
when i think about ning zhen, i think about clothes from taiwan.
when i think about hui yee, i think about street punk wear.
when i think about bitches, i think about mini skirts and low cuts.
when i think about aunties, i think about over sized tees.

they're all judgements and stereotypes like the bitches and aunties.
well well, who knows, some conservative girls could be great bitches too.
and modern aunties, how hip and groovy.
a little do i wonder about what kind of clothes my friends associate me with.

i perceive this world a little dull and unmoving.
how great -
in the world of pessimism this week.
all thanks to that balding teacher of mine. it's fate that brought us to this class,
and i bet it has something i SHOULD be benefiting from.
thus, perhaps i should try maintaining my motivation for as long as it lasts.
this exhaustion is going to lighten up eventually.

as usual time flies.
