Elation + Disappointment
Yup elated that the stress period is over, for a while at least. There are always stressful periods coming up, it's how you cope with it. E.g. procrastination, escaping, all simple and wonderful exit strategies. Lol. At least for the things I don't enjoy doing. Lest my future employer starts thinking I'm like that across all aspects of my life. Don't ask me why I'm thinking my future employer is reading my blog. Oh well, imaginative me. Anyways, so, exams are easy peasy. Jon asks how come your exams are always easy. I'm an exam person, not a write 1500 word essays, repeat ad infinitum person. I love exams because you solidify the things you've covered in the term and remember it and regurgitate. I love how it makes me feel really knowledgeable. Of course I also love using the terms I've learnt in daily language. It annoys my friends coz it scares the shit out of them or so they say. But it's all the more fun. You do realise how incredibly narcissistic I'm beginning to sound in this post. So I shall continue and say yes I'm a nerd I love learning. While essays are also learning, they're just not as fun. Maybe I just need to see it in a different light. Anyways, anyone planning to club this week? Lol. I'm superbly tempted since I haven't gone in a really long time. I'm starting to feel suaku and old and boring. So please bring me out before i really just play mahjong for the rest of my days to prevent myself from getting Alzheimer's.
Disappointment: Well someone came over to buy beads from me and I can't believe she actually wiped out my collection of some beads leaving me with none. Even when I said I haven't used a single one for myself. That I suppose is a case of someone having the me me me mentality. Helllo?? I extend my niceties doesn't mean you go all out and be that thick skinned right? Really a case of give you an inch and you ask for a mile. Now she's gone on to do something very similar to a piece I've done before. I've talked about copyright on EA before and yes personally I don't seem to take a very strong stand against it, but I suppose I forgot to emphasize to her that the minimum you should do is credit the appropriate people. Example me, in this case. But like I mentioned to J, you keep creating but they can only copy. "Their lazy and pea brained minds are probably only coping with copying." Unfortunately I hate that I have to use this line on her. Oh well. *shrugs* I shall emphasize that I don't make such a big fuss as in searching out people to see who's stealing my ideas, but if you're right in front of me I think you're simply dumb and totally socially unaware of your own actions. To that it's no wonder why all the more I should use the above quoted line. Tsk.
Alright I shall conclude this verbose post with my intentions for today, swim, bead shopping, meet huili, xinyi n michelle for din din and maybe, just maybe, clubbing!
