december is actually not too far away. its means both the examinations and the end of it are drawing close. while its worrying(the exams), i'm looking forward to everything beyond. hopefully, my foot heals good soon. i'll be at the nike human race. then the runs that build up to the marathon(dec 4). i'll be playing the inter hall games. its been so long since i've played a good game of volleyball. i'll be heading to the beach. may the weather be good. i'll be watching all those films i've never quite got to watch (public enemies, nine, district nine, up, inglourious basterds). i'll be getting a new phone(se w705), a new digital camera(a panasonic lumix), and maybe, just maybe if i succumb, a new guitar(a cheap electric squire). i'll be looking forward to christmas, the new year, a good getaway perhaps, the late nights, the ten hour sleeps, the good life.

i feel stucked still given the 'recess' week. i wish i had the week all to myself to frolick the fields. i've got the week planned out and here's the first half of it:

saturday - online meeting for aa201 project
sunday - meeting for negotiation task
monday - meeting for ac213 project
tuesday - meeting for aa201 project/chalet at night
wednesday - chalet/???
the rest is still of revisions and meeting of datelines...

not too long ago, i created a playlist of songs. i think everyone should have a playlist on standby. one which you can count on for a slower heart rate and a better state of mind in times of crisis. here's mine:

paint the silence, south
living life, eels
ride, cary brothers
in the sun, joseph arthur
lost cause, beck
stop joking around, hawksley workman
orange sky, alexi murdoch
caught by the river, doves
honey and the moon, joseph arthur
dice, finley quaye
konstantine, something corporate
windmills, wet toad sprockets
something always goes wrong, wet toad sprockets

"there is no rose without a thorn. there is no bed of roses. take the rough with the smooth. if you try, you can be anything you want to be."
