School's started for some time now. And as we (Herman and I) go deeper into the term, assignments and projects start to pile up. I already have 2 assignments and 1 project in hand. They all add up to a humongous amount of 8500 words so far and considering I have another project coming next week, I'll have more than 10,000 words to compose for the coming couple of months. Time to make libraries my best friend again! (ARGH!!)
But I wanna talk about this current Cultural Psychology assignment that I have in hand first. Mainly because we are only given 4 weeks to complete this assignment of 2500 words, and we're already 2 weeks removed from the duration with absolutely nothing done yet!
Given our busy schedules during the weekdays, weekends are our only times we have to work on our assignment. And last week, I dunno why, probably because we were still not in the mood to get serious on our studies yet, we couldn't care less about our assignments and went ahead having fun throughout the weekend, neglecting out assignments. This week, we told each other we need to really get started to work on our assignments, but Herman got drunk (LOL!) at his company event Friday night and found himself awake at his own bed not knowing how he got home! So yea, Saturday got burnt cause he spent most of the day sleeping away. Nothing was done on our assignments. When I met him later in the evening I told him we really needed to work on our assignment the next day and we both agreed. BUT! We end up going to PartyWorld in the afternoon the next day and sang all the way till 5pm then had dinner at Marina, Carl's Jr and when we were having dinner, we were saying to each other;
"Wah.. Really don't feel like studying leh..."
and then like it was correographed before we both said
"Cannot! Must be disciplined!"
So we both finished out huge burgers (we haven't eaten whole day till then) then took turns to execute excretions (inside joke) and by the time we reached the library, it was 7pm.
As I was parking the car at the basement of the National Library at Bugis, I was at it again:
"Here we are, LIBRARY again!!"
and Herman said:
"Ya lor, sian..."
"I think... We just see if we can find the books that we want. Don't need to sit down there and do assignment la"
"(Smiling in agreement) I was thinking of that too!!"
And we both burst into laughter on the fact that we will be skiving again and that we were both on the same book.
---------------
We headed in and got out with what we wanted. We only spent 1 hour in the library, it was still early.
"So, where to next?" I asked as i drove out of the basement.
"I don't know, still kinda early eh?"
"Ya lo, so what you think we can do?"
"Lets go shopping!"
Both of us are broke as hell. Both waiting for our pays to come. We don't have the money to shop. But we still went ahead with the idea, even electing to goto Peninsula Plaza to look at some clothes cause they are cheaper over there.
Most of the shops are closed by the time we were there. There wasn't much to shop. Spent alittle more than half an hour and left. Still not willing to go home, and considering the fact that most of the shops will be closed at this time of the day, we went ahead to Mustafa cause its 24 hours and BOY! it was a real bad decision. The whole place was flooded with indians!!. It was as if they were having a festive celebration or some mad discount spree was going on at all the shops over there. They were crossing the roads (even the main ones) like cars were obstacles in their paths. I got in there and only managed to get out of the area after spending 45mins traveling at 10km/h! None of us wanted to get out of the car for fear of being "molested" (just kidding)!!
Already given up at the idea of shopping (it was already 9:30pm by then), we decided to head back home to the bball court near our houses to watch our friends play bball before ending our day. All of them were gone by the time we reached except for YL. So he hopped into the car and went for supper cause he was hungry and never had dinner. I couldn't eat anymore. The Carl's Jnr meal was too filling. But Herman (that glutton) still ordered a bowl of congee for himself!!
After supper, we all went home and that was the end of the day.
**I have no idea why as i typed, i sorta made it sound like a story. Sometimes when i start typing, i just can't stop. Hope you guys enjoy reading. :)
