thank God it's Friday


i went for a talk this morning, on poverty reduction and economic management. i was early, but my friend was late. and i ended up being late hahaha. it was so funny, cuz while waiting for my friend i met another friend who was also going to the talk and waiting for her friend who was coming late as well.

after waiting for a while we decided to just come in first. thing was, neither of us knew where the talk was. we had to ask the security guard *_* then we had to enter the auditorium through the side door so as not to disrupt the ongoing speech. but i think we did, cuz the place was pretty filled and we had to walk all the way down the isle looking for vacant seats and ended up sitting right on the first row, where we were the only students among the distinguished figures the like of SMU President and Deans...

anyway, the talk was cool. but i think the panel host was a bit too tense and authoritative. he challenged the speakers head-on the way we hardly see during panel discussions. and he even used words like "bullshit". could you believe that? i mean, i thought i didn't hear the right thing. but my friend heard it too.

i'm very sleepy now. planned to stay in the library to do my stats homework. i've been missing a lot of stats lessons. don't know how i'm gonna cope. but now i'm too sleepy for any productive work. and i don't even know what i'm supposed to do for stats in the first place. perhaps i'd go home and take a nap before my sister comes later.

yesterday was a happy day, even though i had 2 lectures from morning till 7pm :) cuz i checked my mail and got 2 very nice messages, or rather essays :)

and yeah, i don't see why i should thank God it's Friday. cuz it's kinda a boring day to me so far. oh i had lots for lunch just now. maybe that's why i'm so sleepy...
