chess. somehow, i always seem to lose ):
but, it’s still fun. and more so when suddenly all my pieces disappear off the board :P

i’ve been really tired lately, and i’m not sure why. sure, i don’t sleep enough, but it’s not like i haven’t done it before. i spent the first two years of uni on an average of 5 hours sleep per night. and i was still functioning ok then. these days? i feel like i can barely keep my eyes awake. today, i went to do some study, and i was just going to lie down for a bit… i ended up sleeping for like 3 hours. woke up and thought.. wth?! so i did a lot less work than i intended |: what’s up with that? i sleep lots, and then i go to uni and sleep more. i don’t sleep much, and i still go to uni and sleep.. in my LECTURES! no wonder i’m failing everything. i got 12/25 for my 2301 midsem. which is better than the 5/25 i was predicting. so i’m basically passing the course at the moment. i’m in a better position than i was last year, and i seem to be keeping up with most of the ppl in the course. so, hopefully i’m well placed to PASS the course this time round. *gah*!

on the other hand, i had a good violin lesson (: which is a shame as i won’t be learning anymore after this year. but my teacher says i’ve gained a sense of maturity with my playing. which is good, gives my playing a sense of depth, and feeling. i guess, as long as i keep practising by myself, even if i don’t take lessons, then it’s still a hobby i can keep. guitar-wise, i’m still on the same lesson i was a week ago. haha! but that’s cos i really like the song i’m playing (asturias) and i don’t want to move on. HAHA. i’ll be forever stuck on playing crotchets cos i didn’t progress to picking up and down. *coughs*. that’s really poor actually.

which reminds me. i have been torturing myself with the Halcyon recordings lately. i have this strange fixation with listening to them over and over, picking apart my playing and knowing that i should’ve done this or that or what-not. but i know, that it was a damn good effort for the 1 day of rehearsing we did. and i do think we sound good together. i guess.. hehe.. being the type of person i am, i’m a perfectionist and i’ll never be satisfied with anything that i do cos i’ll always think i could do better.

my stomach hurts from laughing too much *glares at su* but she thought that deja vu in the matrix was when the evil guys turn into cats to spy on you. BAHAHAHA! *clutches stomach* so we laughed about that for a good 10 minutes. i’ll never look at a cat in the same way :P

and i’m going to lose an hour of my sleep cos of bloody DAYLIGHT SAVINGS! *curses*
