hope is on the horizon


the week felt like it droned away. feels like it's been a week since the exams ended but i guess not. can't really remember what happened, other than the exams (brutal studying), home-movies on friday and lit seminars at NTU on yesterday.

lit seminars were all right (and fun) albeit a little unnecessary. the professors (irish, english, aussie) repeated most of the stuff we already know, except for the Amsterdam one cos' we haven't learnt anything about it yet and i haven't finished reading it (though now i know probably every key part of the novel but i still have to read all of it). food was awesome and lucky my class consists of people who love eating so i could go for seconds without feeling weird. saw an old mate and i felt really bad that i couldn't recognize her when she came up and said hi. talked to miss fern after that to get her opinion on stuff and i suppose it went well. now i just gotta work hard and deliver.

i'm thinking this week is going to be a lot less mundane. by now i am already towards the end of Amsterdam and i think it's actually a good book: we're driven by our values, and these values mould our perspectives on certain events. it determines whether we see something as right or wrong, or neither. okay, this post is getting too sentimental and didactic so i'm gonna stop here.

p.s, i'm obsessed with self-portraits.
