Well, Sidney's all right now.

Posted 2002-03-31 (日) 午前3:18 by terra

Well, Sidney’s all right now. He really scared the hell out of us on Monday. Me on the other hand? I can’t say that things have been great for me these past few days. It fact, it’s been horrible. I’ve got projects due within the next 2.5 weeks before I head for my exams. I’ve been only having about 4 hours of sleep a day, while the faculties of my mind are constantly being overworked. Just earlier, I spent about 10 hours on a programming assignment and I’m still far from completing it. I don’t think I’ll be able to completely satisfy the requirements by its due date which is next Saturday. Then there’s that database group project (which isn’t so bad since there are 5 people working on it, unlike this programming assignment where the scope is wider and the group comprises of only 3 members), and that 4000 word New Media essay of which I’ve only written down about 500 words. Urrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh…..

Sidney's Odd Behaviour

Posted 2002-03-25 (月) 午後9:23 by terra

My beagle Sidney, is for some reason, behaving really weirdly. He’s been looking depressed since this afternoon, and when he was supposed to go for his usual walk, he looked completely lifeless. Just now, he very bit me on my right hand. I’ve got some slight teeth marks and the skin’s swelling little, though the skin’s not broken. We think he’s sick, but it’s a little late to go to the vet now. We’re going to monitor him for a while, if but he doesn’t get better tomorrow we’re bringing to the vet to see what’s wrong with him =(

Me and my boring life

Posted 2002-03-24 (日) 午後11:24 by terra

My life is incredibly boring. Boring, boring, BORING. Every week’s the same routine. Monday school, Tuesday school …and yada yada. The only things that add a little ‘variety’ to my life are the occasional (or not-so-occasional) exams, tests, presentations. Things I don’t really appreciate, thank-you-very-much. Even yoga, something that I really enjoy, has become part of my weekly schedule. Of course, that’s not a bad thing, but what I’m concerned about is the fact that nothing changes, nothing deviates.

Blogging is something I do when I want to rant about the monotony of my life. If I can do nothing to change the schedule-like manner in which it operates, I might as well accept while providing myself a room to complain about it.

Yes, complaining can make life a little more bearable.

See, right now, I’m supposed to be studying for my bloddy database test on Tuesday but I’m on the verge of falling asleep. And I want to stay awake because I haven’t gotten much into my brain. And yet, REALLY don’t want to.

Blog Overdose

Posted 2002-03-22 (金) 午後9:46 by terra

Oh man, judging from the no. of blog entries I’ve been making these past few days, I think I’ve been spending wayyy too much time online. I think I’m going to start cutting down my online time next week after my stupid database exam is done. =(

Found: Xenosaga Lyrics

Posted 2002-03-22 (金) 午後5:42 by terra

This is precisely what I’ve been looking for since since the Official Soundtrack to Xenosaga was released: The lyrics to the Latin songs in Xenosaga which are Ormus, The Resurrection and The Miracle. I found them off the Xenosaga page in Gamefaqs.com, but the can also be found at this website (along with a host of other lyrics) in this website called The Opera House. There’s an English translation for the non-English lyrics in both sites. Anyway, I couldn’t resist from putting up the latin lyrics to The Miracle (my favourite of the three) in this blog. I’m trying to learning the parts but it would be nice if there was a real choir to sing it along with.
