I am like so screwed (And I can't believe I am suddenly using the terms "so" and "like". Natives here under the age of 21 and/or who hasn't graduated from college use the above mentioned terms just as we use the terms "lah" "lor" "ley" and "then hor" ---> Liberally and literally. The only difference is that while "lah" "lor" "ley"et. al. sounds natural in Singlish, "so" and "like", when sprinkled too liberally, makes them sound really stupid. But then, its could be just me :).. losing my brain cells as I write this entry )
Planned to finish writing a critique of the cell bio paper in an hour or so, but ended up spending the entire night on it. This completely screwed my finely balanced plans, because I was planning to devote the rest of the night to study Sov. history. In particular, I've reached a messy stage in the Bolshevik revolution: The freakin' (shit another use of Americanish which I don't like to use) Civil War. In the words of the funky History prof: "Its so messy, no one really knows what who was with or against whom even today. yes, not even me."
Guess its to good ol' Plan B which I haven't used since secondary school. The time honored tactic of waking up at 5am (or earlier, my earliest was sleeping at 9 am and waking at 2 am) to jam some chapters down my throat. Of course, the hardest part is waking up.
Geez, I hope I really do wake up.
