BUFFER

I know I said I would be updating this blog regularly but yeah, other stuff kinda took priority. Crappy excuse, I know.

With regards to my earlier language initiative, nobody seemed to be getting it so I'm sad to say, I canned it. What could possibly be so important to take priority in my life over blogging? Well, I had my POLS1301 and 1201 essays due the weeks before the holidays, and those were massive. I mean, they were probably peanuts or something to others but well, I haven't been back to school for almost 1.5 years and I have never done any essay based coursework in my life so yeah, they were kinda tough for me! (excuses, excuses. I've a whole book of them.)

So anyway, the Easter weekend was kind of dead for me? Most of the people I live with or my friends headed back home for the holidays so the place has been kinda quiet. I decided to go to the city but wow, shops don't open on public holidays over here, do they? It was a minor shock for me, because in Singapore, we take advantage of public holidays and open all our shops, and sometimes we even have extended shopping hours. So, seeing the whole city like a ghost town was a whole new thing for me. *cue nervous laughter*

Finally caught a movie for the first time since I've arrived here over the weekends. Watched Mirror Mirror over at South Bank. The movie was alright, I guess? Not really like the typical fairytale. Just couldn't decide whether it was supposed to be fantasy/comedy/romance or what, felt mixed altogether. But it was still good, in my opinion. (:

Actually, this post serves as sort of a buffer post for me before I do the review on the Commercial Media lecture. Felt weird just launching into that post out of nowhere so I decided to add a random post before starting on it.

One more thing, I've finally gotten my smiley piercing after wanting it for 3 whole years. Woke up that day and decided: HMM, I SHALL GET IT PIERCED TODAY. Felt really awesome after doing it, then guilt started to eat away at me for not telling my parents beforehand because I just know they are gonna explode if they find out. So yeah, not telling them AT ALL for the time being.

And yes, I guess I should stop here and get started on the lecture review because this is getting to be a really mindless post.

Cheers.
