Woe is me
How am I woeful? Let me count the ways:
1) My first exam is in 3 weeks time
2) I haven't revised for my first exam
3) I haven't revised for my second, third, fourth and fifth exams
4) I have two presentations this week
5) I have two essays due this week
6) I have one humongous report and presentation due next week
7) I'm out of hair gel
8) Mai HIME has finished its run- and I'm suffering withdrawal symptoms
9) I have to wait and see if I get shortlisted for the IDA scholarship... see post on waiting.
10) I have no money.
Notice it's all me me me me here. Yep. Feeling a bit selfish.
Aside:
Was reading some notes on the train. A late 80s/ early 90s article on management consulting. One article noted how Singapore was the only south-east asian country which emerged relatively unscathed due to foresight and good planning. Whether or not that's true (I wouldn't say we emerged unscathed altogether for one), it made me realize that our generation indeed has lots to be thankful for. Instead of criticizing PAP, I think we must not lose sight of the fact that they have sheparded the country through many rough times. That's something which we should give props to. I'm not against criticizing when there's cause, just that I think we should give due accolades as well. And no, I'm not trying to weasel my way into a scholarship. I don't think the powers that be will google applicants anyway.
If they did, I'm first in line! Whoo hoo! For this moment in time, my name is top of the list in Google! That doesn't sound very woeful. Nevermind.
