supposed to be doing my maths tutorial. but i think i'll give up on that one. i couldn't even do the first question. sigh. never mind.

really happy that i've finished my lit essay. must be a record seriously. 1500 word essay done in about 5 hours. woah. but of course, it's possible that the thing is total crap, so... got so much to write about the donne one. so used to using old english for donne that suddenly using modern english seems weird. (btw, i did the "elegy xx: mistress going to bed" for donne) as i was writing it, suddenly there was so much in that poem to talk about. but sadly, had to limit myself to what i have. i think i could actually do a 1500 word on that poem alone. haha! the other poem was crap. i did alvin pang's "public display of affection". didn't have much to write about that one. crapped up some stuff that what's his name, irving(?), taught long time ago about surveillance and panopticonism. that idea is so cool. wish i could do some paper on that.

anyway, mummy got me a new sweater and bag. the sweater is not that bad. it's peach colour with red colour, similar style to my gray one, but not so thick, so it's easier to bring around. i think cos i was always complaining that my gray sweater is too thick that's why they bought me another one. can fit everything into my new bag. gonna try it out tomorrow. the bad thing about the bag is that it's white. but other than that, it's so nice!

other stuff. i found out what that old priest said in "Dawn of the dead". remember i was saying i've got this gut feeling that the priest plays a significant role in the movie?

Old Priest: Many have died, last week, on these streets. In the basement of this building, you will find them. I have given them the last rites, now, you do what you will. You are stronger than us... But soon, I think they be stronger than you. When the dead walk, señores, we must stop the killing... or lose the war.

yup. although i didn't bother analysing it yet (too busy with my lit). notice how the priest used the word "us"? why did he do that? he wasn't a zombie at that point of the movie. maybe the priest is a...greek chorus? he's underlining the main crux of the story. don't know. :D

moving on. watched "the wedding planner" yesterday. oh my! it's such a romantic movie. cliched though it may be. i mean, picture this, mary and steve (the 2 main characters) dancing in the park during the outdoor movie, almost kissing and it starts to rain. or better still, steve just walked out of his wedding and wants to stop mary from getting married cos he loves her, and he gets caught in a traffic jam. i mean, how stock situation can that be? j lo wasn't too bad in this one. bit like "shall we dance". yup. really enjoyed it. hope i didn't laugh too loud at some points. geez. i'm such a sucker for romantic movies like this.

saw toh ying at parkway just now. still the same girl. still reading those fantasy stories. haha! she's at MDIS now. don't know doing what. she was complaining about how busy she is with all her assignments, practicals, reports etc. haha! now she's back in the system like the rest of us. seriously miss that girl.

another long day tomorrow. sian.
