The mouth isn’t as painful as yesterday evening when the anaesthetic wore of. But my left cheek is swollen today so my face is a little distorted and as the Chinese saying goes: Mei Lian Jian Ren (No Face to Meet People, which actually means I’m too ashamed to meet anyone. But I’ll take it literally heh heh) My mom calls me the Japanese doll. I say half Japanese doll, if you catch my drift.

Owwwww…just suffered a bump on my head while I was trying to lean back to read a book. I can be such a loser.

Anyway, can’t sleep, and don’t really feel like reading either (though I’ve got tons of books that I bought and haven’t read =( ), so I thought I’d blog a bit. Don’t mind the bad grammer ‘cos I’m trying to type my thoughts as quickly as possible. =)

I rewatched Wonder Boys today.I bought the VCD for S$13 bucks from HMV on Friday evening as I’ve been meaning to buy the video for about a year. I was looking for the DVD version but they didn’t have it at HMV. I’ve got a feeling that I have to thank the censorship board for that. =( Anyway, I’m going look out for the DVD version in other shops, if they have it, I’m going to sell my my VCD copy to buy it. Which leads to — naturally — what a great film it is. I had heard all the great reviews of it ages ago. When I watched it on Friday, I didn’t think much of it because I was largely distracted and rather tired. So I wasn’t paying much attention to the dialogue. I decided to give the film a second chance today because I knew I wasn’t paying due attention the first time. Anyways, the dialogue turned out to be funny as hell. I’d say it’s a dark yet subtle comedy. The acting is brilliant: Michael Douglas’s perfect as the sloppy english professor although one might not imagine him to fit the role considering the ‘suave’ characers he’s played in his film career. Tobey Maguire’s just Tobey Maguire (hahahah).

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…..

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.
