Boston weather fluctuates so much, and I don't know if I like it or not. The temperatures soared up to 18-21 degree range recently, and I like it. It's supposed to be colder, around 14 degrees but it isn't and I am grateful. Yet I hate it when it swings down so low suddenly. I can't believed it snowed like a month ago for the entire Sunday. That was crazy.

Going to have to leave for class soon, it starts in 10minutes. Long busy week ahead of me. :(

Making Love out of Nothing at All
Air Supply

I know just how to whisper
And I know just how to cry
I know just where to find the answers
And I know just how to lie
I know just how to fake it
And I know just how to scheme
I know just when to face the truth
And then I know just when to dream

And I know just where to touch you
And I know just what to prove
I know when to pull you closer
And I know when to let you loose
And I know the night is fading
And I know the time's gonna fly
And I'm never gonna tell you
Everything I gotta tell you
But I know I gotta give it a try

And I know the roads to riches
And I know the ways to fame
I know all the rules
And I know how to break 'em
And I always know the name of the game

But I don't know how to leave you
And I'll never let you fall
And I don't know how you do it
Making love out of nothing at all

Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all

Everytime I see you all the rays of the sun
Are streaming through the waves in your hair
And every star in the sky is taking aim at your eyes
Like a spotlight

The beating of my heart is a drum and it's lost
And it's looking for a rhythm like you
You can take the darkness from the pit of the night
And turn into a beacon burning endlessly bright

I've gotta follow it 'cause everything I know
Well it's nothing till I give it to you

I can make the runner stumble
I can make the final block
And I can make every tackle at the sound of the whistle
I can make all the stadiums rock
I can make tonight forever
Or I can make it disappear by the dawn
I can make you every promise that has ever been made
I can make all your demons be gone

But I'm never gonna make it without you
Do you really want to see me crawl
And I'm never gonna make it like you do
Making love out of nothing at all

Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all
Making love, Out of nothing at all


I love you

This week has been interesting, in terms of workload. I am grateful toward my professors who are seemingly telepathic because they managed to space out exams, homework deadlines, and what-nots so that they don't clash. Of course, there were some 'rearrangement' on my part, but this is good, because I don't have to stress out.

The late nights are still inevitable though. =/

Monday:
Had to prepare SM299 review session notes. Review session itself was at 7pm. Spent the entire day focusing my attention on this. Missed my 8am accountancy class. =/ Whoops! I felt quite shitty about it because our 2nd midterm is next week. At night I chiong-ed my Econ problem set. Managed to get some of it done only.

Tuesday:
Had class in the morning and then I rushed to the FitRec which is on the other end of campus to get my flu shot. Waited for an entire hour just to get it done. Spent the time waiting to finish up my Econs PS. There was so much moving around because we had to keep moving forward after each group of 8 were done. My laptop shock sensor kept going off because of the movement. haha. Had class from 2-5. Came back feeling extremely tired so I crashed for 2hours before getting up to do my work.

Wednesday:
Another Econ problem set due the next day. Went for 8am accounts class - yes! :D It was good that I went because he gave a lot of exam tips. Had OB team meeting for a presentation due Friday. Met up with the Accounting concentration advisor - turns out that he is Singaporean! hahha. Had a good chat with him and felt good about what I'm doing in uni. I've decided to do a dual concentration in Accounting and Finance. Hopefully that works out.. though it means I might have to stay for all 4 years instead of the 3 years which I had planned for. This made me think alot. An extra year in BU would cost my parents a lot of money. Hmmm. Stayed up past midnight to finish up OB stuff and tried to attempt to do Econs hwk but to no avail.

Thursday:
Today! :) Woke up early to go proctor the SM299 exam. Brought the exams back to SMG (Prof. Wilson bought me a drink from starbucks, ahhah!) :) Went for academic advising in the UPO, again it made me feel happy about my concentration choices. =) Came back, and slept! I overslept and missed my 2pm stats class. :( crappppppp! Decided not to go for econ. My econ hwk is still not done though it was due at 3pm. Am meeting up with a classmate to complete it later at 5. haha. oh well. Tonight will be another killer night. I've got to finish my LOCK society application, which includes an essay and my completed resume. and just a whole load of admin stuff to be completed.

Friday:
Due date for a ton of things. Hopefully I survive through it! Have to administer lab at 8am, OB presentation at 9am.

Weekend:
Going to have to do a whole load of stuff for next week. Mostly studying for my 2 midterms and going for Katelyn's bday party! :D

“The Square Root of Three”
by David Feinberg
(Harold & Kumar)

I’m sure that I will always be
A lonely number like root three

The three is all that’s good and right,
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath the vicious square root sign,
I wish instead I were a nine

For nine could thwart this evil trick,
with just some quick arithmetic

I know I’ll never see the sun, as 1.7321
Such is my reality, a sad irrationality

When hark! What is this I see,
Another square root of a three

As quietly co-waltzing by,
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer,
Rejoicing as an integer

We break free from our mortal bonds
With the wave of magic wands

Our square root signs become unglued
Your love for me has been renewed

I really really want to watch this. 2 of the hottest men on earth are starring in it.

My persistent cough wouldn't go away! Argh. It irritates me incessantly. I feel like a cat, trying to cough out a ball of hair. :(

I was a victim to the Trojan virus last Thursday. Initially I thought it was a small problem that could be fixed. I was wrong. It hijacked my operating system and I couldn't do anything about it. Gaurav tried to fix it but he said that it was beyond repair and I had no choice but to reformat. :( I totally forgot about all the recovery CDs that I had for my good ol' Fujitsu. So I was panicking like crazy. Gaurav gave me a copy of Windows7 that he got at the opening ceremony and installed it for me. He's amazing and wonderful. I would have died of panic and frustration if he were not around. My computer and its files mean so much to me.

So daylights savings has ended, and that means I am 13 hours away from Singapore. I don't like that. :( I prefer 12, but oh wells. It's so weird that it gets dark so early - I've got to get used to that. Very soon when winter comes, by 4pm, it would be pitch black outside. But I do enjoy the fact that the walk to my 8am class isn't that cold.

It's flu season in the US! Got my flu shot today. Had to wait in line for 1 WHOLE HOUR just to get it. I totally hate injections. They scare me so much. I didn't even dare look at the people queued up in front of me getting the shots. Luckily, I got the nurse who sitting facing the group of people waiting, ie my back was towards them - imagine a doctor's office, the doctor looks one way and you face the opposite direction. I kept telling the nurse that I was scared and I hated injections. But she was so nice about it. She reassured me and told me what was going to happen, etc. All doctors and nurses or medical care personnel so be as nice! My left arm is now sore from the injection. =(

Besides my cough, for some reason I'm getting tummy-upsets. :( So I l sai-ed a lot today. :( Today was a rough start to a week. Had little sleep last night and I was tired the whole day. But I'm pretty sure things will get better.

Margaret is having a wonderful time at Penn. She even joined a sorority that sounds unbelievably amazing! I wished BU had that sort of Sorority. But I guess it would be so unlike BU to have one, since all the Sororities here are.. well, the usual type I guess.

I really want to go do Study Abroad but I guess I have to talk to a SMG advisor ASAP because registration for Spring is this Saturday! ahhhhh! The UPO up-ed my class standing to 'Junior' status. Kinda sad that I'm already in my '3rd year' of uni. I really don't want to graduate that early but I don't want my parents to waste an additional 50k on me when the money can be saved for other purposes.

I'm such a procrastinator. I've yet to get my cover letter sample and my resume approved by the career's office. Yikes! Got to do that. And I have to grade my student's competency tests ASAP!

AC222 and EC392 exams next week. :(
