Assignments, again...

Finally, I have passed through two assignments. Relief. At least for a few days. There are still two more to do, and I think I should get started on them...one is due next Friday, thankfully that one is a group assignment, so not as much pressure.

However, the assignment that's due in two weeks time, I think will need quite a while, so I must push and motivate myself to get it started as soon as I can. Thankfully the research on it I have started because we were required to do a short in-class presentation just last week, so at least I have a starting point.

Other than that, not much else news on assignments for now...

Assignment Stresses

It's Wednesday the 21st of May, 2008. And it's also the 2nd last week of Semester 1...

As the semester draws to a close, the deadlines for assignments draw ever closer. I take a few minutes of my precious assignment time to write this small post, as my brain is fried from all the typing I've been doing, and will still be doing late into tonight...

Looking at my studies, I see that I have four assignments to complete, two of which are due tomorrow, and Friday subsequently. Then I have another due next week, though on Tuesday or Friday I am not sure, I'll have to re-check. Then I have another due the week after next, so I'm glad that one got moved back a week, at least this way I have a little more time to do them.

Oh well, I guess I should get back to work, perhaps I'll write another entry once I get the chance too.

There's so much happening at the moment, I can't wait until I get my assignments and this semester over and done with.

Somedays I wish I was all done with University and studies, so I could just concentrate on life, work and other activities that I deem considerably more enjoyable, despite problems that may arise.

Week just keeps gettin' worse...

With respect to my week, I suppose it started relatively alright.

Actually no, it started really really crap. It all started when I bit my tongue on Sunday. Little did I know at that time, that the rare hard bite would trouble me later in the week.

It's now later in the week, and that accident on the weekend has graced me with two ulcers upon my tongue. Specifically on the tip of my tongue, just off to the left of my mouth (from my person, so if you look at my tongue, it'll be on the right of my tongue). You know what, I might actually take a photo of my tongue just to show everyone...

And there we have it folks...And yes, They are as painful as they look and more. Each time I eat, drink and even speak, they rub against gum, teeth and mouth to bless me with excruciating pain.

I must say I believe this to be my most painful experience with ulcers in my mouth. So let this be a lesson to all who love to chew gum, to be careful that they don't accidentally bite themselves on the tongue. If you thought the initial bite-pain was bad...the ulcers that follow are worse, and make the pain last.

But oh no, ulcers don't seem enough for my week to torture me.

Right now, as I type this fateful post, my desktop has gone all stupid on me. I've just restarted after installing a program, and now my tower keeps telling me the chassis has been intruded. Funnily enough, my tower doesn't have a chassis intrusion switch nor system. I have taken it apart, dusted every component, and still it doesn't wish to co-operate with me. Now I am relatively crippled as all my university assignments, not to mention work for my website are locked within the depths of my desktop's hard-drives, so near from my hands yet so far from access. Looks like I'll have to take it to the repair shop tomorrow.

So, that's all my bitching for tonight on my bad luck this week. I just have this bad feeling...bad luck likes to come in three's, and by my count, I'm only up to two...gawd...just great...

The BlackBerry Outbreak...

I have fallen ill to the outbreak of the BlackBerry...

Even knowing that my savings are dwindling into nothingness, still I decided to go crazy, and bought myself a RIM BlackBerry 8310 Curve. Silver.

This is slightly good and slightly bad news. Good that I know have a PDA/Smartphone thingo of my own. Bad because now I have to find ways to pump resources into my bank account so that I can get a nice plan to use this new gadget of mine to its full potential...

Anyway, looks like I'll be praying very hard that I get accepted for my latest job application. At least they'd already given my a phone screening...that's a start...these next two days will be relatively important as I wait for a second call...

Twenty Years...

In about five hours, I shall have lived on this earth for twenty years. Two decades I have lived...

When people turn certain ages, reach certain milestones, there are times when one wonders what have they accomplished so far in life?

Honestly, I'm not so sure myself. Of course everyone is different, and people will reach certain stages of life having or not having done certain things. There are many things that I would like to have done by now...and just as many things that I wish I had never done...

In the end though, we all make mistakes for a reason, and most of those mistakes are more important than worrying about what we haven't got or haven't done...

Be happy with life, and live everyday as it comes...there will always be good times and bad times. I'm glad I've survived 20 years, so I figure I can survive another 20, god willing.

Happy Birthday to Me!!

Now...I suppose the friends want to be treated to dinner or food of some sort...hahaha, talk about asian cultures...

LOTRO

Lord of The Rings Online...

One of the most addictive games I have ever played, and still am playing.

I've finally reached Level 50, after almost a year of playing. I never rush these sorts of games, plus 50 is the current maximum level, until the expansion comes out in a few months time.

I've made many friends through the game, and now have connections in even more places all over the world.

As long as you don't get to addicted, or destroy your livelyhoods by playing games too much. It's absolutely fun and fine...

You know the saying:

"All in moderation"

It's true, too much of -anything- is almost always dangerous...so don't try to do too much of anything...

Back to chatting and searching for journals and articles I suppose...

Responsibilities...

It is 07:45 on the morning of the 2nd of May, 2008.

Here I sit in my room, now typing away on my laptop as I decide to start this blog.

Responsibilities.

Each and everyone of us have different responsibilities. No one is exempted from these things, these responsibilities. Some may choose to ignore their responsibilities while others embrace them. Either way, our responsibilities and how we choose to deal with them are part of what make us who we are.

Perhaps there is belief out there that there are light responsibilities, and heavy burdens. When we start comparing each other, we can make those observations. However, to each and every one of us, individually...aren't all our responsibilities heavy burdens?

So what do we do about them. What is the difference between those who embrace their responsibilities, and charge to fulfill them to the best of ones ability, and those who do not?

Does fleeing from responsibility sink a person? Or does it give him individuality?

Does embracing and displaying ones earnestness to fulfill their responsibility make them a better person? Or are they self-concious and fear what others may think of them?

Just another one of those 'meaning of life' questions that has no right or wrong answer. After all, isn't right and wrong a matter of individual point of view?

Ah good, time for breakfast...
