i cut my hair. i cut my hair! i really did.
like 6 inches of hair. it's short now. the really guai look. bangs and short hair. the girly sort. i wonder why i even chose it. the last thing i want to be is guai. unless it's guai(weird).
went to the library with cher today. i'm a frightful study partner. the only time i ever managed studying was with min and eileen. in school for prelims. we really studied then. i'm talking like a couple of chapters in like 2-3 hours in school after lessons. that really rocked. a time when studying really meant studying.
but i did do some stuff anyhow. about 4 chapters. but that still leaves me with 7 1/2 chapters for econs and everything else. sad case. but things are looking bighter from the 14 chapters i started with. after some discussion with cher, i realised that HC is testing a lot more than NJ! no fair!
talked quite a bit with cher. things have really changed. interests, priorities and the people around us. asides from that, i'm all geared to shop now. you know, one last time before GSS ends. one last time before i put the mid-year break of 2004 behind me. now did i tell you i want to buy a nice pink or red PVC handbag sort which you can hang on your shoulder but can fit a lot of stuff? like umbrella, jacket and a book? i must go hunt one down.
ooh. and my mom and miad think i look younger after cutting my hair. apparently i look twenty plus with long hair and years younger with short hair. aye. it's time to mature again. like sweet old brandy.

2 lectures and counting. i've done 2 econs lectures since this morning. fine, technically it's just one, coz the first lecture says introduction to econs. and the 2nd one is central problem which is scarcity. but still i've actually done somethign today so i'm glad. that just leaves me with about:
12 lectures econs
11 lectures bio (each stack is at least 20 pages. longer ones are like 60 pages)
9 lectures chem (this is debatable since i don't knwo what there is)
2-3 lectures maths
all by next week. whee!
now is tv time. i'll figure tonight.
i've added a new book to my reading list. she's actually quite interesting but as she starts explaining her family tree, you can get quite lost.
i went to school today. to do the horrid gp timed-piece. the only thing is we exceeded the duration big time. every topic looks formidable. i did 'sad is the way society embraces reality TV.' Discuss. that's about almost the easiest.
there's this one, 'married or single, women never feel liek winners' somethign or other. or something about media publicity. 500-800 words. belch.
considering i didn't know how to write a thing in NJ, it's quite an accomplishment to be tackling my 2nd gp essay. and maybe a greater accomplishment if i succeed in failing my 2nd consecutive essay. and i only ever wrote two.
yesterday was my dad's birthday. went out and ate a lot. happy bdae dad! plus happy fathers' day too!
and tomorrow there's math tuition again. sigh. i don't like any form of tuition. any form of study etc. but i'm gonna cut my hair tomorrow. that is heartening. i'm debating chopping everything off and getting short hair. the old style sort, just below the ears, sort of thick. what do you think?
