we've finally finished the second written report draft to a somewhat satisfying state that will suffice for now. satisficing!!! different aims of teacher and students!!! ok, right. thank god we can finally drop this till the promos end. 2969 words. what a nice number.

pw reveals so, so much about the human nature. i suppose that's its only benefit. almost everyone that i've interacted with regarding this abomination (including those outside my group) have taught me something about human nature. great work, moe! you've given us the most important lifeskills lesson ever!! woooohoooooo.

pw has also taught me how to be a mediator and leader. i'm good at task allocations and being a communicating middleman between people. i was remarking to ben in the library today how no one in the group is speaking to anyone except me because all the orders come from me. and everyone can't stand each other. this is so ironic, considering the role that i'm playing now was originally meant to be nicole's. but i guess the fear of getting terminated out or not being able to enter a local university (i may not get to go overseas) is enough motivation to get up and do something.

when in doubt, stir up everyone into a huge frenetic frenzy. scare them, and then they'll start to do work. get them all flustered, with no visible net to fall back on.

i swear, once all this is over, i will personally kill or at least inflict bodily and/or psychological trauma and harm on anyone who mentions these words to me

you. since a long time ago. we were never exactly close. but not really that far either. and then that fiasco about social transplanting. that you benefitted from. and my dream came true, in a metaphorical light. and i was a restriction, supposedly. then now, and everything was fine. until.. that. do you know? do you do this to flaunt it in my face, subtly no less, that you're always more successful than me? did you know that that was the one that you'd been so inetnt to know about? i may be doing my passion whilst you are forced to put yours on hold, but in every other aspect of life you have beaten me three times over.

i hate cryptic blogging. and there's no one else to blame but myself if i get no S papers. think S papers are more of like interest than utility.. and also when you see everyone else do it you wanna do it too. LGC was right.. without it i'd probably be a "bitter young man". not like i'm not already.. but for something that was within my capability to slip away? that's inexcusable.
