Behind too much and too long. For those who wondered where I vanished to again, blame the due dates of assignments and coming finals. For those who didn't notice, well, you didn't miss much. No worries.
Unfortunately, it wasn't the sudden explosion of places that I need go to or hooking up with anyone or doing anything special or abruptly planning something unexpectedly. It was just as ordinary as assignment with scarcely a reliable guide or plan to base on and sometimes (but mostly not) zealous reading of Management text book. My finals are incredibly close. Imagine two weeks close. Yep. The only two things on my mind now are Business Law and how am I going to pass Management. It's getting amazingly terrifying, ashamed as I am to admit it.
Haven't heard a blip from the three universities I applied to, except from IDP requesting that I resend my certified photocopied transcripts again to USyd because they apparently lost mine when they were here. How convenient. So, all I have now is this photocopy of my conditional offer at USyd which doesn't really say anything or comfirm much at all. Oh yeah, the anxiety over this issue is also another thing on my mind now.
Also, I'll be without my notebook too from Monday onwards till, my dad only knows when, because I desperately need to get my wireless internet connection working again. I think I'll go crazy soon if I don't get back up to my usual speed of broadband on the notebook. I'm bored with the PC my mother uses. It's just too darn boring. Minus the privacy too.
Friends who know about that trip overseas are trying to convince me that Shanghai isn't as bad as it seems. Well, hopefully when I do get there my perception of China will have changed and being surrounded by people who won't be able to understand what I say as I speak neither Mandarin or Cantonese or Hokkien or whatever dialect will make me want to rethink actually learning my so-called mother tongue. My 'banana' status has caused me some pretty embarrassing moments but nothing too harsh that I will resort to learning Mandarin in 72 hours.
Anyway, wish me luck on my finals because I'm going to need lots of it. See you in the tagboards.
