at 4am, my stomach felt hollow. my mind, wrecked. i could have written a song there and then but i gave way to slumber unknowingly.

i made a promise to myself. but the worst thing about promises to yourself is that its easy to let yourself down.

while i'm writing the last couple of hundred words of my essay that's due the coming week, i thought i'll just take the time to pen my thoughts on the recess week so far.

i was at the night safari halloween night with a heck of a flu not too long ago. can't wait to wake up to a clear nose once again. i was at the philantic museum looking at the very nifty works of iron man too (see below). even more recently i got zy's takamine guitar for a little over a hundred bucks. gotta change the strings when i finally have more time in my hands (that is post-exams matters). i've been looking for the elusive bottle of jagermeister. and rooney's then possible severance of ties with manchester united has caused quite an upheaval and it has led me, the most untypical of guys who don't grow up watching football, to follow up on soccernet news.

the haze has been a bummer. apart from asthma, i think of the rain forest going up in smoke and can't help but feel tragic. some statement was made by an Indonesian spokesman, speaking of all the oxygen they've been providing us in his bid to downplay impact of the haze. i'm pretty sure many would scoff. i left volleyball training early because the psi was raging.

i've been to a couple of interviews, talking a lot about myself and my internship experience. it was delightful to get the calls from them eventually.ironically, the essay i'm churning out now happens to be about career choices. i see myself accepting the offer by the end of november though i'm still not sure if i would be shortchanging myself in the long run but then again that future can never be foreseen. time will tell. in some small way i'm looking to ditching school so that i can lead carefree weekends maybe at some pub or at the beach.

i should get back to the essay.
