CHEEJ'S BOXES OF STUFF
Wednesday, September 07, 2005
hey ya'll..guess i havent been in here for a few days. cant help it if there's nothing to write abt during the hols. if u look at it, all i've been doing is just sleeping, eating, reading, playing comp, surfing net, msn, (trying to) mug, not necessarily in that order.
i feel so lazy. but i just cant seem to find the motivation to study. every september holiday, this same thing happens. i dont get it, but some part of my mind just seems to disagree (very much) with the concept of mugging during the holidays. studying's alright (hence me reading thru lear and trying to get history case studies online) but mugging? that's just a little extreme now..
speaking of mugging, i've decided that there's a fine line between mugging and studying hard. u see, mugging to me is an individual's act of studying hard. it's exactly as its definition implies - its for the individual. muggers dont share their notes, they dont help their friends with their studies. someone who studies hard, on the other hand, is willing to help others. studying hard can occur alone or in a group. a good student is one who's willing to help others learn. a mugger isnt.
blame dewei for the above..i decided that he's not a mugger, cos although he studies hard and like mad, he's still willing (and volunteers) to help his friends if they need help in their studies. bravo dewei!
so anyway, i've decided i wont use the terms "mug" and "mugger" loosely anymore, since my definitions of the terms have changed. of course, my previous uses of the terms connote none of these "new" meanings here, so no offense yar? =)
on to the subject of today's post: holiday update
*finally eh? ok who am i trying to kid, precious few people read this insignificant stream of bytes anyway..
anyway, hols so far..hm. saturday, monday and tuesday i had lit lecture from 9am to 1230pm. all of the lectures were on king lear. quite a killer, wouldnt u say? on the bright side, we've made good progress as a class..we've officially finished act 2! haha quite an accomplishment really, considering the rate at which we move in class. cant blame us really..we arts pple like to discuss things =)
then today i watched kill bill volumes 1 and 2..its a very good story, and artistically its told very well too. but its bloody, well, bloody. heh. its violent, and its vulgar. but the most interesting bit is how its violence, gore and vulgarity supports the storyline. quentin tarantino is a genius.
ok la..that's abt all that im gonna say now. think u guys are bored already anyway.
cheers!
