It’s been a while since I’ve had the time to sit down and update my xanga. The past month has been overwhelming and stressful. It’s not clear how grad school can get any worse, but apparent it does, just wait till I take my quals, as second years told me.

With 12 hours of my day spent in class and in lab, and the 14 papers I’m supposed to read for class every week, it’s no wonder I’ve stopped sleeping. And when do I find time to work on presentations as they come on average once every 3 weeks?

Things that have kept me from jumping off the roof in the past month –

Planning the wedding at Tahoe with Garrett and Brandi

Skiing in Arnold, although I got disgustingly bruised and felt miserable for the next 10 days

Lunch at Chez Panisse with Terence and Joanne

Flowers blooming everywhere, spring in California is quite amazing if you have the time to enjoy it

Sometimes people really amazes me.

Can they really be this presumptuous?

I should stop wasting all my energy on being so pissed off at people.

Been listening to old Cantonese pop all day while working on my slides, 至鐘意 lee 句 "擒住你".
