dada diaries: day 07.
it's a truly do-or-die situation; i've got more than a week before my accounting 2 final, and i'm less than safe from the reaper for now. my days of elegantly slumming at home have got to stop (for now), whilst my own belief in instant gratification has got to take a sabbatical for me to truly focus on what's important for now. the problem is, i've still got a whole load of things to do that reek of being trivial but essential to my very core. for starters, i've still got 4 episoides of 24 to watch (come tomorrow morning, it's going to be 5), and i've still got at least 5 episodes of lost to complete in order to satisfy finishing the backlog. also, i've yet to complete reading v for vendetta (which i was meant to do a week and a half ago), and i still have to start ripping into the ultimates volume 1 and 2. there's just too much pop culture to absorb...and it's ruining me.
this would be a good time to mention that i can only study at night, because nothing ever happens at night...as long as i don't galivant around and visit karaoke centres or mamaks. it's been a rather sedate 24 hours so far, and i hope that i've got enough self-control not to escape for dinner tonight. the problem is, i don't really see much of a difference between going out for dinner, because the alternative would be staying home and finding something to do that would not revolve around opening a book.
on a brighter note, i grabbed hold of queen's greatest hits and i can safely say that no other band could make a song called "bicycle race" any more fun than it already is. and since i'm in the mood for retro, david bowie shall be making an overdue return on my playlist. let's go retro a-go-go.
i probably would have to make an appearance at college sometime this week, although i'd keep it til next week if i could. i might only have one paper to take, but fucking it up means the absolute, definite end to an otherwise unimpressive tertiary academic life.
and then the chances of ogilvy and mather wanting me would totally wane. it's funny how i'm planning towards an internship more than attempting to do well enough to secure a place at the company, but whatever works for now...otherwise i might have to kiss kenneth's ass frequently and beg him. there's nothing wrong with ass-kissing --- it gets you places, if you're subtle enough. oh Lord, get me into marketing communications and i swear that i'll stop smoking. indefinitely.
don't stop me now, baby. day 07 continues.
