School work has been stifling, time isn't on my side & I appreciate any opportunity to distract myself from my never-ending assignments & to perfect the art of procrastination, so here it is.

1. Put your iTunes on shuffle.
2. For each question, skip to the next track for your answer. You must use the title of that song as your answer, no matter how silly it sounds.

Undiscovered (James Morrison)

2. How would you describe yourself?

In The Highways (Sarah, Hannah & Leah Peasall). Well, I sure hope not.

Most of these answers made no sense at all.

Got this off RockstarVanity's journal. I haven't been here in ages, mostly because of work (don't even get me started) & I'm in a particularly shitty mood (long story), so this is a welcome - albeit temporary - distraction. Thanks, RockstarVanity. And yeah, I'm indecisive too, so I'm using song titles from both a musician (David Gray) and a band (U2). Also, some answers contain more than one song. Have fun, kids.

It's a Saturday morning & here I am, updating my dA journal instead of rushing to work.

Saturdays like this have become a rare & precious commodity, since the captain of the corporate slave ship I work on has decreed that every slave is entitled to a maximum of two Saturdays off per month (I could spend the next five to seven minutes elaborating on the absurdity of such a rule but I shan't waste time - mine or that of anyone who may be reading this).

I'm heading back to bed real soon, since I promised myself I'd sleep in today. After all, I hardly have that opportunity, these days.

But while I'm updating, I'll throw in something quite random & seemingly irrelevant: The Cure has made some of the most delightfully depressing music I've ever heard.

Also, something else: happy 48th, Bono! <3

So, back to sleep now.

Stay safe, everyone.

I'll be catching my much-needed forty winks & missing some people more than I can bear to mention.

God bless.

I am quite certain that my life has been, for the most part, an exercise in irony.

There are countless examples I could cite to prove this point but let's not delve into the past. Instead, let's just talk about the present.

Nothing - I repeat: nothing - is going as planned (& trust me - I planned well. Very well). I officially begin my senior year internship in less than five hours & already, due to unforeseen circumstances, things are going awry:

1. Ouch, Part I My gorgeous new Diesel flats, which I bought specially for wearing to the office, have given me some pretty amazing blisters, meaning that I can't wear the outfit I'd originally planned to. If that doesn't sound too bad to you, I've got two words for you: it sucks.

2. Ouch, Part II The aforementioned dilemma is being compounded by the absence of any office - & blister-friendly footwear from my closet. That old cliché that women can never have enough shoes? You'd better believe it.

3. Hair Affairs, Part I My hair still isn't long enough to be tied (why the hell it's taking so damned long to grow, I have no idea), which basically means it's messy & gross. And before you try & convince me otherwise, no - I do not care if no one else thinks so. Besides, why isn't my hair naturally straight? I'm Chinese, dammit. I shouldn't have to spend an indecent amount of time ironing my hair straight every bloody day.

4. Hair Affairs, Part II My eyebrows are in dire need of a good threading which, because of some people's utter incompetence, I haven't had the time for. It's a grievous crime for any female to be walking around with eyebrows only Yeti could appreciate. Ugh.

5. Yuck I feel horrendously fat & ugly, no thanks to the very unwelcome blemishes on my face, the disgusting love handles around my waist & the multiple mosquito bites I got from standing around some bug-infested area, waiting for idiots to finish doing nothing in particular.

6. Rest, My Ass It's four in the morning, I can't get to sleep & I'm supposed to be up by five. Guess that means I'll be running on less than an hour's sleep & some strong black coffee - on my first day of work, no less. Wonderful.

7. I give up.

I'm done with my Film Theory exam - hardly studied, watched only two of the gazillion films I was supposed to watch & am running on approximately four hours of sleep & exactly one cup of espresso...& gosh, I feel great! O.k., not entirely but that's not because of the lack of sleep or whatnot. Exam was pretty easy, so one down, two to go.

Anyhow, I'm in the school's Mac Lab now, bored half to death. So, I decided to do this. Enjoy & do it as well, if you wish.
