18th August 2005 (Feel Good Inc.)

yes people!!! the title is absolutely correct.... to some extent.. tomorrow's da peak for the chinese hungry ghost festival!!!! that means.... more bad dreams n sleepless nites for me!!!! thank god i dun have any important exams comin up or else i'd be toast.. who came up with this festival anyway?!?!? my guess is a few of our ancestors (from wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy back) began 2 experience strange phenomenons... sudden storms n such.. since they didnt know wat caused it they tot it was done by spirits n decided "hey! lets make a festival for da spirits so they'd be 2 drunk to be angry at us!!"... n u know da rest.. geez.. well i'm glad its almost over.. if i can get thru tonite without a single incident (which has never happened in da past 2 weeks) then i believe its truly over... for everyone else... for me, i'd wish these eyes could see so much... anyway, on a happier note, i made a few new friends.. but sadly some of them are going away 2 pursue studies abroad.. it was a pleasure meetin them even tho it was for a short while.. best of luck 2 all of them!!! u will be missed!! regarding studying abroad... i found out (after an intensive, long, minutes of Q & A with the coordinator) that i basically need an overall grade of 'A' for semester 3 and 4 if i wanna compete to go to sheffield.. an 'A'?! its hard enough maintainin a 'C' average!! but after several hours of thought n consideration... i've decided if thats wat it takes then i'll do it.. i dun wanna go 2 queensland cause da course there is essay-type course, thus i'll have 2 make due wit this news n pool all my resources into achieving this almost impossible goal... i really really really wanna go!! drat... cant i just get a 'C' n still go? sigh...

i decided 2 not take any additional courses this and next semester, no eca's and less socializing... boy, this is goin 2 be a long semester... well guess dats it for now.. i better get some sleep.. havent had one in 2 weeks... adios amigos...
