the first week of school is almost over but i've yet to fully morph back into my semester 1 nerdy self. not exactly a very good thing, considering the fact that i loaded 2 additional modules into my timetable this year, pushing my timetable to its 20 academic units max. lectures are still pretty much ok, but its startling and disturbing to find that i can no longer maintain my 1 hr concentration span anymore; 10 mins into the lecture and i find myself fidgetting and staring at my watch again and again. definitely NOT good. think i really need to give myself and overhaul.

one of the subjects that i added as an elective is called "Cinematic Pleasures and its Identity" and i'm v thankful for making the choice to take it. the first 2 lecture really opened my eyes to the whole cinematic industry and film theories. never would i have thought that so much work and intrinsic details are present in each and every movie. i guess i can safely say that from this semester on, movie watching will never be the same again! on top of the subject being an interesting one is the fact that the lecturer is a very interesting and articulant person. of all the lecturers i had so far, this one is the best(in my opinion); i would definitely enjoy all the other subjects SO much more if the lecturers were like him. but alas, the one and only fault that he has is that he's gay. what a waste man.

received a piece of news this week. its suppose to be a good news; something that i'd wanted and hoped for. but why is it that i don't feel any joy inside? why is it that i feel a ripple of uneasiness? hope i'm wrong. anyway, i think my blog layout's getting old ... hoping to change to something different. something DIY i hope? haha watch this space man ;)

lyn: i know you've had quite a rough week and everything's not exactly going as you'd wanted, but try to cheer up ok? jia you!
