let me state this oh-so-clearly for the oh, i don't know, gazillionth time?
I HAVE THE UTMOST DISDAIN AND CONTEMPT FOR PROJECTS.
in simple english, i
hate it. i'm spending hours of my life toiling away at report after report, at meeting after meeting, in front of the computer spinning imaginary numbers and statistics out of thin air.
i thought pw in jc was bad. uni project work is just that 5 times over. 1 round of pw in j1 was enough to almost kill me and whatever love i had for projects before. doing the written report myself was bad, but it was the better alternative to trying superrrr hard to get my group to write anything other than 5 miserable sentences that do not gel together anyway. well yes, hello. i have 5 projects this time round. no sorry, 4, plus 3 econs homework assignments worth 100marks each to be done in groups of 10.
argh projects are the bane of my existence presently. in my humble opinion, life would be so much smoother without the evil thing called a project. what does project mean anyway? projectile? predict? it has absolutely no meaning at all!! BAH.
had a stats project meeting at 10 this morning in town. McCafe is actually a pretty nice place to just sit and chill out. i think Trina and i did that like, last year. but last year seems so long ago somehow! after stats, Mel and i continued with our Singapore Film report with Chelsa asking us for help sporadically. i tell you, the three of us are like official report writers. and being an ex-lit student is not good! Mel and i nit-picked at every single word and sentence we spun up, analyzing the possible second meanings of words and wondering if our point was brought across strongly and clearly enough. we nearly went crazy by the time 7pm rolled around and we closed shop for the day cos our brains had stopped functioning.
watched
Dead or Alive! it's such a brainless show and only 1-and-a-half hours long! but what do you expect anyway. the idea of 4 hot babes dressed in skimpy bikinis fighting in a tournament on an island simply does not promise much of a story line. there are so many movies i want to watch! we came up with a list of movies we wanted to watch today half-way while doing our report.
Kelly's list of movies to watch within the next 2 months:1. The Black Dahlia
2. Step Up

sighhhhh making these lists don't make me feel any better, to be honest. i'm so holiday-sick now. i'm so sick of school and everything and exams are in 4 weeks but lessons are still going on in full swing and i can't keep up. i want to play games on my ps2 so badly but i foresee my holidays being eaten up by hall stuff in December! i shouldn't have over-joined things in my zeal to earn hall points. silly Kelly.
