it seems that this blog is getting stale and negative but it's not as bad as i make it out to be.
most of the assignments are done for this semester, all that's left are a 4000 word essay and and editing the 1 minute video, both of which are mammoth tasks but i am glad that i don't have to spread out my attention over a few things at once.
over the past few weeks i've stopped lounging on the bed/sofa watching TV after dinner and i haven't been "studiously" watching the shows i've downloaded. i've even gotten lazy uploading photos to facebook! *lol*
i've been spending absurd amounts of time in front of the computer though i suspect much of this time is spent looking at stuff other than work, like, checking out Etsy/Anthropologie/Forever21/Shopbop (and many other shopping sites on a lower frequency) in addition to the usual blogs i read, and in place of the tabloids I'd read at Gossip (in Seattle) on Thursday afternoons over a cup of pudding milk tea (Us Weekly, Star) there's now Just Jared and ONTD.
sleeptime's gone from 1 to 2am and i get annoyed by myself for waking up at 10ish, sometimes 11, because half the morning's gone and there's so much i could have done in that span of time.
i also drink 2 cups of tea everyday, have 2 eggs for breakfast, indulge in online retail therapy (4 bags and a clutch on Etsy in 2 months! and an F21 top), treat myself to Gossip Girl/Prison Break/The Hills whenever i can squeeze it in without feeling guilty, stocked up on M&S biscuits for late night bites, and am currently reading Project Smitten which is a lovely new local fashion magazine despite not going shopping ever since i got back.
i have developed an aversion to orchard road. crowds are overwhelming and frustrating. and shopping here is overpriced.
in the month since tony's been back we've managed to find some nice quiet spots far from the maddening crowds. he's going off soon but i have exams and mugging books is always a good activity to do in place of feeling lonely and lovelorn.
