lo and behold the tremendous dilemma of finding a place to stay for next year. i dont mind moving out, nor do i mind staying in. actually i'm rather content with where i'm living right now. it'd be good to move out, but if i do, i dont think i'd want to move into another student accommodation place thing. gimme a proper apartment. but the fact that stands right now is that we have to start filling out accommodation forms for next year. its becoming confusing because there's priorities to consider (like MONEY and location etc) and preferences. PRIORITIES vs PREFERENCES. my verdict? if you can afford something, go for it man. and its even more confusing when we're given a deadline. actually we've had plenty of time to think about it, its just that we havent been bothered to. well there we go.

i've said before that i dont mind staying in. but if i stay in, i want the same room. simply because its at a good location (its not too far from the kitchen, not too far from the laundry room, it has a nice view...somewhat..at least it has a view, and i get to see trains everyday) if i get a different room...i guess i'd be ok with it. maybe i'll just stay in another year. then i'll move out. to a proper place. no more student accommodations. it kinda has a dorm-y feel to it. long corridors with doors to your left and right.

there are other student places to consider and all..and they provide food and all..but the rent etc is different, and maybe higher too.

PRIORITIES vs PREFERENCES. thats what it comes down to. but essentially, i just need a roof over my head. with heating. water. a bed. and storage. thats it. and internet. and a phone line. and electricity. and thats it.

hmm..the money situation seems to be ok here so far. i say so far cause it may suddenly take a turn for the worse. yes i dont want to jinx it. fingers crossed the money gods will continue to show favor. i'm hoping i can pick up things (and i mean, really, pick things up quickly enough) so they'll let me work from 7.30-11.30 on weekdays at my current job. that way i can fit in more hours at work, hence more dough. balancing time with studies...what studies? :P i'll manage. at least i've picked up a skill that makes me more marketable here. and no, i will not hitch my skirt up and walk around k-road on friday night like pablo suggested.

speaking of which, i've finally finished Lolita. painstakingly so. actually towards the end i just skimmed over the words and stuff.  humbert humbert...H.H. well, he makes Lolita a sex slave to him. takes her all over the country (its set in the states) and she escapes when she's 14. he glorifies his "love" for her. i say he should die and go to hell.

aud said she's staying in next year.

its been a slow SLOOOOOOW day here. it sure dont help that i skipped lecture and tutorial again. its a boring course that, educ 111. EUGH. its just boring. very...abstract ideas. about how you think..more precisely, cognitive processes. i think i'm really enjoying english 111. i'm quite excited to do the assignment, actually. i have an idea on what to do. but i'm not too sure about how to start. EMAIL ZACH. you strange tutor with the cracky voice. HELP ME!!
