Where I’d like to be right now is halfway around the world knee-deep in community service. But I’m here at home feeling deeply unsatisfied with my life. So why am I not chasing my desires? There are dozens of student-led OCIPs to pick from. There’s my 2 month break in June that I can spend doing an overseas internship for a non-profit organization in Nepal. The issue is I can do...
I can’t put a reason to certain sudden overwhelming emotions. Especially the heartbreaking ones.

Ooooooh technology
In my possession today, I have an iPad :)
The early bird catches the worm
And I intend to be that early bird. I feel drained by the plethora of ideas that keep bombarding me. But, first things first on what is important and achievable. You know, I haven’t even started modified term, am not running on full capacity and yet I have a sleep debt. I don’t even waste time on mindless surfing anymore. Wth.

All this fucking free time and waiting on people is making me frustrated and completely unsatisfied. Study lor. Found a couple of things I’d like to do and need to do. The accounting term is starting in a month. I can’t wait to be stretched thin.
Not just a quick buck
Because having the opportunity to develop someone’s future is worth every minute of my time and more.

Spending a dreary Friday night at home because the dvds I borrowed came with the cases locked?! Dafuq?! Spent a good half hour watching videos on how to use magnets to unlock it and another half hour trying to find copper wire to make my magnets stronger. The cases are still locked :’( Even a cheddar cheese prata couldn’t make me feel better.
Funny how time flies though I’m...

I’m ready to kick the bucket at 9pm tonight. Feeling tired after eating like a rabbit today. I’m on a detox diet. Not to lose fats but to flush the fats out from my arteries and intestines and if I lose some other fats in the process, that’s cool too. Did you know that science has recently discovered that fat is the sixth taste we humans can identify besides sweet, sour, bitter,...
If I wasn’t here right now, I’d be here right now. But feeling differently.

Queen-sized beds are for sharing with textbooks and notes. There’s so much space for me to fall asleep without crumpling my notes. Played 4 hours of poker today. I have too much free time. But it’s a great past time when one has nothing to do and lotsa time. That’s the recessive gambling gene in my blood speaking.
