lag

Psychiatrist Irving Yalom reminded us that “although our physical death destroys us, the idea of death can save us.” Yet how can the idea of our end redeem us? Existentialist Martin Heidegger concluded in his work Being and Time that the awareness of our end spurs us to shift from one mode of existence to a higher one.

i'm lagging. like lagging 'cos of fatigue. holidays have been tiring. what used to be a relaxing period to renew and refresh oneself from the drudgery of schoolwork has turned into a nightmare of endless studying. how can anyone stand studying so long? they sit?

k that was kinda lame. i'm usually not lame. =) lol seriously, mugging is !@#$%^&*(). fill in the blanks. words simply fail me. tired tired. i wonder why i lost my motivation to study. shouldn't the last week of the holidays affect some change in my otherwise slow pace of studying? shouldn't the pressure and stress start coming in already? and yet i feel nothing. and still i continue my purposeful life of blogging, reading and gaming.

and i wasn't being sarcastic plz. haha as in i really feel that i'm learning and gaining something new each day (not in terms of mugging). but at the back of my mind, there's constantly the demoralising presence of the entity entitled 'CTs'. oh well.

i returned the books i borrowed yesterday today. flipped through the personality book thingy but didn't find the quote and most of it looked stale and dull to me, so didn't want to kill my eyes reading it anymore.

oh ya, i saw two 26ths mugging at the cafe in bedok library too. lol but er their names sort of slipped my mind so i thought it's gonna be quite malu if i go over and say hi. x.X man, i got poor memory.

and i realised to mug history efficiently and effectively, it's no use browsing through the notes. it's better to organise your points and case studies, as well as come up with a list of definitions for common terms like 'nationalism', 'success', 'weaknesses', etc...

9 more days to freedom. 10 more days to my hopeful sunset.

anyway, here's a joke i koped from junwei. found it funny xD

A shopkeeper was damn sad when a shop which had similar business sprung open right beside his. One of the shops had a sign in front of the door saying 'BIG SALE!' .Worse still, another shop, also selling the same things opened on the other side and had a huge sign reading 'LOWEST PRICES'. The shopkeeper panicked because his business was in jeopardy, until he thought of a good idea and put up a sign in front of his shop which reads:
'MAIN ENTRANCE HERE'
