Once more unto the breach

Ello all!

Its probably time for another blog update, a few people have been pestering me to do so.

Alright! its '09 and the lunar new year has just come great. More generic Tết stuff...sticky rice cakes, red pockets, visiting relatives... bleargh, maybe I'm an exception but I have an incredible dislike for this hubbub.

Good that its all over now.

Unfortunately the holidays are pretty much over too... Is it just me or does everything i plan to do in the holidays just melt away on the first day and gives way to mindless clicking on the net?? Then again, i suppose i have managed to accomplish a few things- catch up on some reading (my latest is Stephen Hawking's 'A Brief History Through Time' which Steven graciously lent to me, *thanks again Steve, if your reading*)..cook a different meal each day and for once get an average of 10 hours a night sleep. Oh not to mention watching most of the TED sci/tech talks (some really good stuff there). Great

Anyway, so back to school tomorrow! The looming HSC is creeping ever so closer... and the work will pile up once again. Well not that i don't enjoy the work... i just hate a specific subject- english. The most superficial, superfluous, irrational and irritating steaming pile of bovine excrement I've come across in quite a while. Too bad its mandatory...

At least i will be able to replenish my tea supplies (courtesy of derek) who often ventures to the city (conveniently for me, near a tea vendor). I'm completely out of the good stuff- been living off apple juice for the past two days...

Well i suppose that sums up the past few uneventful months.

See ya guys later!
