i can hardly wait for school to be over.
that is for the SOLE reason of waking up late.
clocking an average of 4 to 5 hours of sleep every night for the last two, three weeks is not my idea of fun, refreshment, energy, and all things bright, beaming and beautiful.
in fact dreadful eyebags are at an all-time huge and beastly eye shadows (no not the makeup) are at an all-time black.
admittedly, i only have myself to blame because every night i seem impossibly glued to the computer, tv and books; whichever has held my captivation at that point of time.

so yesterday was the night for the computer.
although i spent most of the time not talking but reading manga translations.
me being the cheapo that i am who can't bear to spend hundreds on manga volumes has resorted to reading the somewhat distorted and grammatically erred translations online.
anyway the manga, Akuma de Sourou, which i've been meaning to read for A YEAR, was found online yesterday! a full and complete translated version!
despite the cheesy and slightly warped storyline (think chickflick cum serial drama), i very much enjoyed it.
so much that i want to get the real, tangible manga volumes.
urgh i am a real sucker for cheesy, romantic storylines.
which probably is the reason why i spend hours in front of the tv soaking up senseless tv shows which leave nothing but the daydream satisfied.

received the overall promo grades and i'm QUITE happy with it.
didn't cross the B barrier, but Cs are good.
they are an indication of possible improvement.
again, it was a bittersweet day as the lucky ones managed to get promoted or get away with probas but the unlucky few had to be retained.
made me feel incredibly fortunate to have gotten promoted and it's an indication of how real failure can be as we advance in our years.
failed subjects never seemed to matter as much before as it does now.
failure never seemed so easy and success never seemed so hard before.
jc's such a make or break and it's perhaps the most fleeting and transient period of our school lives.
so.. weak as this may sound, make the best of it and leave no room for regret.

all that aside, CAN I REPEAT HOW MUCH I LOVE THE 1AA1 GIRLS?
and the 1AA3 GIRLS?
school is never ever the same without them.
i don't even think i can survive a day without them.
i remember how lonesome i felt when mich sue and jame decided to pon and rage had to go for her music exam.
so today was spent largely at the void deck playing solitaire, eating, listening to music, taking pictures, engaging in conversation (which i missed at some point in time because i was asleep) and combining the perfect combination of seriousness and retardness.
especially when all of us were hooking our legs to the tables and leaning our bodies stiffly back and forth like vampires easing into their coffin.
okay not a very good description but it's the best i could think of.

oh yes, i spent most of pccg playing crimsonland and i've decided it's quite addictive and stress-relieving.
at first i stuck to my forte Type'0'shooter because thats the only thing i know how to do. TYPE.
but after that i attempted The Quest and had to kill these awful ugly monsters called the Reaper or whatever it is they're called and had to fight through the horde to collect my extra points and weapons but whatever it is, I WANT TO PLAY IT AGAIN.
its fun to shoot.
my favourite weapon is the Ion Cannon.
and i hate the something minigun.
it makes me run SLOWER, and the shooting radius is pathetic.

ok pw is due very very soon and i'm getting rather worried :|
my group has certainly lost steam and poor al and noelle are sick.
but i have hope and faith that we will pull through.
and speaking of pulling through, i NEED my chinese book and SAT book to pull through chinese AOs and my SATs..
