i was quite disturbed about the shallow notion some people seem to have of the word 'love' and the surface meaning which they attach to verse 1 cor 13:4-7. was going to type out a whole chunk about what i feel when i realised that it doesn't really help things. it struck me that i used to have the same shallow notion of the word 'love' and it was only after knowing Jesus, personally touched by His great love for us, that i realised what i've known previously about many things have barely scratched the surface of truth.
...
yeah:)
anyway, woke up early in the morning (actually it wasn't really early...guess i haven't been waking up early in the morning for quite some time) to pass steph stuff:) then came home to watch bourne identity! felt really sleepy and as a result i stopped the show somewhere along the second disc to sleep for a while first, only to realise that i stopped the disc 1 min before the ending! gosh. what a waste of electricity.
yepz. then went to braddell heights cc to study with dancing and yunyun 'cos i wanted someone to study with. heh. it's my turn to be adopted for the day. the reading room looked like a brilliant place to settle down and consume the knowledge present in my notes but looks are deceiving. it ended up that for me, i could not really study there 'cos the room has a nice soporifying effect which distracts my mind and makes me want to go to sleep instead. not very friendly, especially not in the afternoon when my willpower to awaken is weak and i fall asleep easily. the night always presents the most ideal conditions for a conducive and effective studying session.
what a pity exams are not at night.
i just recalled something this morning while looking at the venation of the leaves outside steph's house. i don't know if it was a lack of sleep or watsoever, but i said something really stupid yesterday. jitsy and i were observing the petals of this flower at Han's...and she asked if it was monocot, and i answered in the affirmative and jitsy asked how did i know and i said ... 'parallel veins in the leaves'. right. we were looking at petals. no leaves. where are the leaves!!! and i looked at vascular bundle arrangement, and it was so obviously a dicotyledon. ah well. lack of concentration;)
countdown. one more week and two days before prelims. oof. how exciting. like a rollercoaster ride. the joyful anticipation:P
