beautiful disaster

Singapore Idol's lost its kick. I wish it had better singers. Joakim is so cute but he'd be better eye-candy if he could actually sing well :( I mean, he sings adequately but not well. Mathilda on the other hand is wow. Can't see a winner yet but then again, no one really suspected Taufik would win till the last few rounds.

I'm sorry I'm so unglam--yes, I do watch Singapore Idol, if not regularly, then pretty frequently occasionally. Haha.

I'm gonna have to be a bit of a misanthropist for the next few weeks/months because the pressure is now really setting in and making sure I am making the most out of every moment I've got. Right now I'm shying away from econs though I know I've got to start it soon and focusing on history and S Lit--that's my way of easing myself back into high-powered studying. Feed my mind candy before I get to the really tough mind-bending stuff (LRACexchangeratesPPBphillipscurveecons).

Today was Dan's birthday so he got himself a half day and did the most awful thing: he asked if he could come over "to study". Of course he didn't really study much--"I'm tired," he said, and promptly took a nap on my couch--but at least I studied--yay. To his credit, he did do math and I helped him a bit. It was quite fun spending the day with him, albeit in a nerdy way. I am very pleased that he really liked my present. You can tell when people really like presents and when they just think it's okay, y'know? And he pretty much gushed over it even though it was just a bunch of cards. Score one for Jac and Zhen, and Zhen gets the lunch with Jac :)

Tomorrow is my first econs tuition session with Liling, Cristl and Sam T and am quite looking forward to it because I'm feeling lazy that I've been putting off econs and am hoping that the tuition will be the impetus for my studying. It must, because otherwise I don't think I'll ever get down to doing econs.

I get this feeling I talk too much about what I'm studying and too little about anything else and I get this feeling it has to do with "dependency issues".

My Destiny
Psalm 46 (NASB)
God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change
And though the mountains slip into the heart of the sea;
Though its waters roar and foam,
Though the mountains quake at its swelling pride.

There is river whose streams make glad the city of God,
The holy dwelling places of the Most High.
God is in the midst of her, she will not be moved;
God will help her when morning dawns.
The nations made an uproar, the kingdoms tottered;
He raised His voice, the earth melted.
The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our stronghold.

Come, behold the works of the Lord,
Who has wrought desolations in the earth.
He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth;
He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
He burns the chariots with fire.
"Cease striving and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth."
The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our stronghold.
