Mood: sluggish Fact of the day: During the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shi Huang had scholars buried alive, and books burnt, to root out any potential troublemakers among the intellectuals. event of the week: angel's housewarming party this friday.
I really should be sleeping now. Or at least, I should be doing my work, so that I can sleep earlier. But damn, my head's gonna burst and I really need a break. I didn't sleep last night, due to some miscommunication between my homework and me. Wanted to take a nap this afternoon, but didn't manage to squeeze any nap time in at all, except during the lectures. After dinner, I took a 2 hour nap and now, I should probably have to work till tomorrow morning again. Sigh.
Actually, I've already more or less finished all my homework that's due for tomorrow. But unfortunately, I still have one whole stack of other people's homework sitting on my desk, waiting for me. Sigh, the midnight story of a grader. Not looking forward to it, but thinking about the money that's going to come in, I think I can still feel some motivation and sense of purpose in my work.
It's really late now, and everyone's already asleep. So I'm feeling just a little sore, and curious whether $6 is worth my one hour of sleep. Oh well.
I might just have another source of money coming in though, because apparently I've been selected by the college of engineering to apply for some of the scholarships that they give out to engineering students every year. It's so flattering, to know that my GPA is high enough for them to send me an invitation to apply. I don't think I'll get anything though, since they know that I'm already on scholarship with Singapore. Anyhow, it makes me happy to receive that thing, a symbol of some basic recognition of my supposed academic excellence. Muahahaha...
Another thing that happened today made me really excited. I met this really gorgeous ABC guy, who's surprisingly really nice and easy to talk to. I was at the Blood Drive, and he's the coordinator for the event. So while I was resting after I was done, we were chatting for quite a while. Nothing's gonna happen, though we did have some good chemistry while chatting, since I only know that his name is Chris, and we didn't exchange any other more essential information. Heh. The funny thing is, while we were talking, he was teasing me, saying that he'll be thinking of me, and that he's sure I'll be thinking of him. [As for why he said something like that is a long twisted story, so forget it....hehe..] And indeed, at 3am, with so much work to do, I can still remember his handsome face, cheeky grin and all.
Anyway, I'll probably forget him by tomorrow. But he was a rather good distraction for today. My horoscope says that I will have a romantically exciting September. Wow, it seems like it's coming true! If all the new guys I meet are going to be so gorgeous, I really don't mind at all. Hahaha...
With his face in my mind, I think it's time to get back to work. Hopefully tomorrow will be another wonderful day. I'm sure it'll be...as long as I finish my work asap, and hurry up get some sleep. yawn.
