past the halfway mark

feels like my brain has been detached from my body, encased in bubble wrap, and is currently floating in a jar in some mad scientist's laboratory.

had two papers and one extended revision lecture (5 to 7+ pm... aaargh) in the last two days. Now I have developed newfound respect for people who have really intense exam periods, and I'm wondering how I managed to survive O- and A-levels. Either I'm just getting old, or this place has really gotten to me.

been trying to revise econometrics today, but it's been stop-start. My brain is MIA (stolen by said mad scientist, I expect). I have a strong urge to lie down and sleep for perhaps 623 hours. But since I have exams on monday and tuesday, that would not be a good idea.

not all is dark and gloomy though. The last two papers were good, and has restored my belief in the existence of God (or at least of lecturers who like to give lots of As). Hoping that this trend will continue for the last 3 papers, especially for econometrics. *crossed fingers*

woohoo.. the stuff I ordered from amazon last week has finally arrived. Though seeing as it was meant to be my birthday treat to myself, it's a little behind time. Still, better late than never. I CAN WATCH SOUTH PARK TONIGHT!!!!! muahahahahahahaha.........

speaking of birthday treats, I got the Phantom soundtrack as a present from my flatmates. Man I'm touched, though I bet they're regretting it now coz I keep playing it, as loud as I dare (with a 2.1 speaker system, that's quite a high decibel level). Apart from the blood-curdling screams, it's really quite fantastic. Really. Michael Crawford is an amazing Phantom, full of murderous jealousy, burning wrath and dark despair; listening to him is like watching the whole musical unfold. Terrific.

okay, shall stop waxing lyrical (yeah, I'm being generous with the use of the word 'lyrical'). Time to return to reality. Econometrics beckons. Unfortunately.
