let the funk jazz through!

well it has been such an eventful week of not doing any serious work that it's starting to threaten not to become one... ironically...

classes in formal have technically ended for me this week but as usual i am faced with a fresh whole load of readings and yes, 3 assignments due next week, two tests, and one presentation... 3 of which are all due on monday, same time, same class... :(

and not to forget laundry of course...

my silly internet connection in my room is so screwed up that while they have taken care to spruce up this three person bedroom to accomodate three people, they have not taken the care to notice that three people cannot share two ports unless there's some sort of a splitter.. which they did give, leaving me to like what? buy another cable which costs ten dollars, and it's something i wouldn't need to have so much in excess... since well, i currently already have one to connect to a normal port... sheesh...

maybe i am just feeling this way due to the expenses that i have incurred in the past week... it's been quite much i would admit and it's starting to get to me... haiz... but still looking forward to get to portland so that i can 'recupe' my losses! and possibly have fun in a city that might just look alot like singapore... and taste like singapore!

we'll be driving up in about two weeks' time... yup... me and the ntu people... seems like it's really cheap to rent a car and drive around and all, so we would and leave in the morning to come back in the evening so that we wouldn't incur any overnight stay costs... which fiuts does and it adds up...

was only interested because ross doesn't have those nice clothing which i would like to have but portland does! my friends got the gap shirts and stuff for really cheap... nah even if i happen not to get anything (which would be really rare), then at least i have been to a major city here in the northwest! :)

right... i am justifying... but forgive me for tightening my expenses for now.... going to eat bread and no more good food! haha... i am seriously horrible... hehe.

tomorrow there's two meetings for me, rather intensive ones in which i have to get things printed out and stuff done... need to prepare for it... haiz... oh well... and not to forget that my mom's birthday is coming soon! but the one thing i really regret would be that her birthday in singapore happens to fall on the days that i have two tests in a row and an assignment due in seattle... and i don't want to talk to her late on the phone... in the sense that i would like to talk to her on her official birthday in singapore... *grrr* *frustrated*

forgive my angst. i still need to complete an article for epi...
