National Book Week

"To his peaceful little world at 9.30 in the morning, this must have been tantamount to the arrival of a messenger bearing terrible news in a Greek tragedy."

The National Book Week thingum: closest book, page 56, seventh sentence. :)

(ahh I haven't watch harry potter yet D:)

Sandra teaches you how to write!

I'm almost certain the key to writing personal statements is to find an obscure topic/activity to be your passion for the duration of the writing.

I'm just as certain that describing Globalisation as the "insidious phenomenon that it is" is the way to start my essay.

(It's okay, Sicheng. Cut your hair so we can spike it up for NDP :D)

personal statements ):)

hello, I'm aletheia. I'm young, female, live in a bubble, am usually happy, occasionally exuberant, and would very much like to find out the meaning of life (:

yay we shall inactivate inactivity

!


Heh Sandra was right. Hair doesn't grow faster if you cut it ):

and :D!

I realize we aren't THAT inactive

APPLAUSE

Woohoo listening to some Brain Concentration Music Training thingum on youtube (had been listening to it the whole of yesterday actually --replaying and replaying) it really helps IMO everything drains away...except your bio notes haha.

that I need a rant

I cannot squeeze any more Chinese out of my brain juices. Every single neuron has been figuring out how to link these 词s together. Every little dendrite has been working furiously to produce Chinese characters. Every synapse is fueled by the need to churn out different ways to repeat the same point to lengthen my essay.

Except when I take my mini-breaks where I play half a game of Minesweeper.

I'm exhausted. Chinese enervates me.

(Half a game, because I always either misclick on something or am forced to guess between the proverbial last two boxes, each with equal chances of being safe/the one with the mine.)

Except

we're still not posting much here.

... I'm sleepy.

is an idea-rous thing.

Homework for today:
[ ] Survive today.

Check.

[ ] Relax for the rest of the day and neglect homework debt.

Check.

INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE OF THE DAY: "Well done guys! <3" Are you inspired?! :D

An idea

Because Sicheng never runs out of them.

WE SHOULD POST HOMEWORK HERE SO WE'D CHECK THIS ONCE A DAY/WEEK AND MAKE THIS A USEFUL BLOG FULL OF NERDY STUFF.

WITH OCASSIONAL QUOTES TO CHEER OURSELVES UP

(Y)?

Not anymore!

Arts Fest was surprisingly good (:  Glad we did it in the end!

Heh last in-school performance.

How?

(Throw sliced mozarella cheese and tomatoes and basil together with a dash of salt and a drizzling of olive sauce, and you get a $20 dish. :D)
