delayed post-

well let's see. the weekend's over, and i've not had my haircut nor have i started on the mock epic. so much for my weekend's itinery. its rather frustrating come to think of it, i'd start a day with all these plans and at the end of the day i would only have completed a quarter of it. roar.

same applies for my readings actually. well not like school notes and stuff, but you know, books in general. so many open books and unread pages. and instead of finishing them all, here i am planning to buy more books! but you can't really blame me. kino has this delectable array of new books by chomsky and fukuyama. what else, i have my eye on this stiglitz book and the friedman book ah ho has been going on and on about. as usual though, i bet i'm going to buy these book and instead of reading them, i'd be stuck on the xbox playing winning 11 (god's gift to men. well after fiona xie and denys rodney tan).

by the way, tomorrow marks the start of the highly anticipated preliminary examinations (best blockbuster this fall! - chicago times) , and in typical fashion i think i'm gonna barely scrape a B for it. well that's if i'm lucky. i'm betting one of these days, one of the markers will realise that i've written crap and all my examples have been cooked up. my, i'd be lucky to escape with an F after that i tell you.

i shall try to push my luck tomorrow, and insert some jokes into my essay. after which, i'm going to pray that the marker has a sense of humour. either that, or i get awarded bonus marks for my dashing wit and boyish charm (its true! - chicago times). well that's all for today-

may god have mercy on our souls. discuss.
