i just got home and now its pouring. nice timing. rainy nights are lovely (though not when you have position papers and a ton of overdue math to finish up)
its been an emotionally exhausting past few days.. alot that left me wondering whether i'm totally missing something here or whether everyone around me is just insane. the mountain of work piling up is starting to worry me too. its going to be a busy busy weekend.
went for the george soros talk today, pretty last minute decision. it was fairly interesting, except its rather hard to keep awake when the two people on either side of you keep falling asleep (hanyi and stef. surprised, anyone?). kishore mabhubani is really an excellent, excellent speaker. terribly engaging.
position paper after that with stef.. actually its not like either of us did anything heh but nvm :D thank you shang, you are amazing we really owe you one! and for adding much laughter and happiness into my rather horrible day. :] days like this i understand how important friends are to my sanity. or well.. the opposite applies too actually.
everything's so.. weird. and complicated. it was supposed to be an amazing 2006, despite the work and all. but honestly, the only thing that is going to matter in a few years is my SATs, my grades, what college i get into, and that is all dependent on this year. so, i should not distract myself with things which seem like they matter the world to me now and focus on what this year is about- my future.
i was in taka yesterday having dinner and there was a fire! which was very exciting. we were at crystal jade and the fire was at coca which was very nearby and it was all smoky.. complete with tons of fire engines and firemen outside taka too. and policemen. and we were all calmly eating until we finished our food and went out and realised how smoky it was. haha. random exciting information :]
and i should try to stop cursing so much. hmm.
I wonderHow's it gonna beWhen you don't know meHow's it gonna beWhen you're sure I'm not there How's it gonna beWhen there's no one there to talk to you Between you and me'Cause I don't careHow's it gonna beHow's it gonna be
