Busy as a Bee!

I was supposed to come up with new year resolutions for 2013.
But i guess it's a little late to come up with a list now that i am already a quarter into the year.
No!
I did not procrastinate.
All I did was do the things that I was supposed to do daily and poof!
Time flies.

It is easter break next week!
That means a week free from school!
I should start behaving like a year 3 student and do my work properly.
Because it is this period of time when we start chionging right?
But i feel so sluggish.
I don't want to do anything at all.

I blame the lack of sleep sometimes.
I get up at like 730AM everyday but i refuse to think that it is a normal waking hour because everyone stares at me with the 'WHAT?! HOW DO YOU WAKE UP THAT EARLY EVERYDAY?!'
I blame everyone for making me think that I should slouch around till idk 10am?
I feel myself getting lazy.

I think I am kind of overloading myself with all the different modules i am taking this sem.
They require too much thinking.
I don't exactly like thinking.
Well, I do like thinking sometimes, like when I am alone and all.
But the thinking level they require is like at level 100 when I think my brain activity level currently supports up to say 50% only. Each time I do my readings I have to read the sentence over and over because the whole structure doesn't seem to make sense to me. I can't tell if i am the only one having this problem.
But i guess its just me. No other Soci student is complaining much.
I would like to console myself by telling myself that they just don't do the readings.

Well, a dreamer can hope.

Talking about dreams.
I haven't been having much dreams for quite some time.
BUT EVERYTIME I TALK ABOUT NOT HAVING DREAMS I START DREAMING ABOUT THEM.
Most of the dreams aren't that pleasant I might add.

Occasionally i get ridiculous dreams but they are all realistic dreams, not totally illogical. I once made an illogical dream, and i woke up because i knew it was a dream.

Something got me thinking a little yesterday. I walked past a sec school friend. He was smoking, something totally different from what I pictured him to be while we were in sec school. He was athletic, and he just somehow screams 'go healthy' to me.
Then i started to think if it was the friends that he mix with over here and if it was peer pressure. And then i wondered if he is now totally different from who i thought he was. And then i scolded myself for passing such a judgment. He was just smoking. it wasn't that big an issue. Well, not that big in Australia. Okay, not that big anywhere i guess. Smoking doesn't really change a person.
And then i started thinking about how some people would say 'I would NEVER smoke. I would rather DIE than smoke' but are now smoking anyway. Have they forgotten what they said? What changed along the way?
And then I started thinking about one of my friends who told me he smoked in the past, like social smoking, as a sort of blend in and be cool thing, but stopped when the phase passed and i wonder if people who did not stop then ever stop. Will the phase ever be over?

My thoughts are so everywhere.
But yeah, i got to start my brain moving.
It isn't moving enough.
So many thoughts, but no links.
I ALWAYS MISS THE LINKS.
:(

Irritants.

i think my life is getting more stale than ever.
Well, apart from the weekends haha.
We had an American theme Housewarming last saturday! :)

Anyway, this isn't my point of today's entry. My point is actually a question.

Do you ever meet people who irritate the heck out of you but you refuse to say much because you feel that you should maintain a certain level of friendliness to him/her?

I seem to meet these people all the time and they annoy the heck out of me.

Don't mistake my silence for tolerance. I'm a generally peace-loving person, but seriously, I have zero tolerance towards people who push their luck too far in my face.

How nice it would be if there were no irritating people in this world. However, there is apparently no equality in this world. As such, there is a need for the poor to recognize the rich, just as there is a need for the presence of irritants for one to appreciate the goodness of the nice. I know this has no relevance but I'm taking soci this sem, i need to justify myself coming to blog because uni students are apparently not allowed a life. Another social convention that we can do away with. Who came about and imposed all these social rules? -Yes i diverted. I have this tendency.

Back to my point. I really can't stand these kind of people anymore. I really want to just go up to them and tell them to grow up and leave me alone because i find them so annoying. Why do I have to be polite to them?! I try to rationalize and I came to this conclusion (from a psychological perspective).

It has to be a form of survival instinct! In order to increase the chances of survival, an individual will try his/her best to avoid all forms of confrontation (reduce chances of being murdered :O) and try to conform as much as possible (blend in as much as possible). (I just had to theorize all these hahaha)

Yes, that was just me bullshitting. I didn't answer my question at all. There is so much that is left to be unsaid; because if there was anyone that I had to speak to about this, it would be the person(s) in question(s). Going around badmouthing them would just make things too tiring for me. Because, what do you know? The world is small. The stories sometimes get back to the people themselves.

Back to School

School has started for a week already!
I can hardly believe it has started when it barely ended (thanks to summer term haha)

Well, at least i know for sure now that i will be graduating by the end of this year! :)
Sho happpppyyyyy. :)

I'm worried though. I don't want to commit to a route yet. I can't stand it when people ask me what I intend to do after this. It's such a pain. I have to go into another round of explaining why I am not committing to a particular route. OH AND THAT DISDAIN on people's faces when they realize that I have not made a decision yet.

Oh get over it annoying people.

I will not answer any more of such questions if you aren't genuinely interested but just want some juicy gossip. it isnt that juicy anyway.
