Priorities

Alright, enough of Mraz-dreaming and get back down to work, Yuen Hee.

I need to start on a research paper today, which requires a 2000-word limit. The deadline is tomorrow 6pm. Fuck. I had thought the deadline was next Thursday and to be handed up in class or something.

And I need to study for a mid-term test for my Internet module. It's tomorrow. argh. doesn't help that i've been skipping almost every lecture for it. You can do it, focusfocus.

Which made me decide yesterday that this semester, i'm far too busy to continue my two martial arts. So I've decided to let go of Aikido, keep my weekdays more free, and ensure that I MUST pass all my six modules by this semester so that I can graduate from university! And so many projects and presentations are piling up right now. I'll prob re-join the club later on in the year, as a graduate :) Which means i have to pay higher club fees.

So yesterday, i went for training of my other martial arts class, Nam Wah Pai. And oh, i have so many bruises on my leg now but i feel darn good. Exercise is good. Also, my nail polish got chipped at one side of all the fingers on my right hand from the session...weird. It now looks like i deliberately did that 'chipped-on-one-side' design but i did not. and i think i should change my colours to be something brighter. to motivate me or something. I guess it's true when someone once told me she paints her nails according to her mood, or, according to how she wants to feel. I thought it was a trivial notion then, but now thinks it seems kinda true this time. Cuz everytime i look at my nails (colour) these couple of days, i don't really feel happy. Prob because the past few days haven't gone too smoothly, which i shall elaborate on later. And I keep expecting my period to come anytime, so yeah. The black colour is like a reminder of what I'm feeling inside me, and the colour outwardly manifests/represents/reinforces more strongly how i feel, and i don't like to be reminded about it. So that's what people mean when they say colours are symbolic.

Off to study for my test now. Just polished off an apple to get some sugars in me and i shall get down to my desk, surrounded by my green things to keep me going. Now that's what i call symbolically therapeutic. Imagine if I kept a green pet (ie an iguana/chameleon), that would be doubly therepeutic. someday. i actually love those creatures, they're rally calm and soft. I had two of them on my shoulders for photo-taking while in Vietnam 2 years ago. I came away thrilled by their zen and well-behaved manner, and prob from knowing that i don't fear all creepy-crawlies after all. Those greenies had captured my heart :)
