John, Let Me Go

How can a month possibly have flown by already? How is it possible that I am yet scrambling to meet another essay deadline? March has been great music-wise, having gotten to see Mum and Sondre Lerche in concert (and getting to meet Sondre twice, woohoo!) and work has been pretty decent. However, I do NOT appreciate being perpetually sick. What, do I have some sign on my forehead that invites all passing bugs and parasites to kindly use my body as some kind of illegal host?

First, I had a cold, then it turned into the worst wracking cough I've ever had, then now I'm back to the cold. So, naturally, this is the order of the next few diseases I will surely be getting: herpes, gangrene, Ethiopian flesh-eating bacteria. If anyone wants to pass on any exotic viruses to me, you know the number.

I desperately need a vacation. Yet I see ALL my money being sucked into the damn tuition fees for next semester. Even with the gahmen's generous 40% discount, I still have to fork out over $2000. So I will not be a happy crab for the rest of the year, unless I bring in illegal immigrants on the side to make extra cash.

Sondre's songs are still ringing in my head! John, let me gooooo....(In this case, John = random ball of flu bugs and viruses)

1234, Tell Me That You Love Me More

I AM FINALLY DONE WITH MY DAMN ASSIGNMENT!

I can't tell you what a relief it is. Thankfully I got an extension from my tutor, but even with that, it was so damn hard to get started on the paper. Will I ever kick procrastination in the ass and be able to submit things on time? I guess not.

At the moment, I'm going to enjoy the immense feeling of RELIEF you get whenever you've just finished a huge, odious task that you've been putting off for the longest time. My fault, I guess, but damn it feels so goooood to get that off my back.

Still, I'll only get to celebrate for a day and then it's back to my second assignment which is due on 28 March. Which means only three and a half more weeks to do a 2000-word paper about something that I have absolutely no interest in. Boooo.

Excuses that I can use next time for a deadline extension:
1) I have a pathological need to watch American Idol or I will start going down to the local supermarket and hurling cabbages at innocent bystanders
2) The police suspect that Mas Selamat is hiding in my block and has evacuated everyone while they comb through our block for the next few weeks (cross out if Mas Selamat has been caught or already discovered shopping in some Indonesian night market)

Looking forward to Mosaic next week. Mum and Sondre Lerche, anyone?
