I'm so tired, and the faint shadows beneath my eyes aren't going away! It might have something to do with the six hours of sleep I get every night.

I haven't gotten anything from my secret pal... Today I banged on the table during Econs in the hope of scaring my secret pal into writing me something, hahaha.

Hmm, I think I have to work on the plots for my stories. I keep getting the whole "cliche" thing for comments. Although I'm getting the majority of the votes for the Soompi Short Story Battle, I feel as if I'd rather not have them because some of them comments by the readers said the plot's cliched. And it wasn't meant to be cliched at all. Argh. On a brighter note, I got a $30 Borders gift voucher that comes in the form of a spiffy card, much like a credit card. Books! Here I come!

I kind of regret not applying for Lit 'S' paper now. It'd force me to read more books out of my usual romance/murder genre and I think I'd get to write alot more. Oh well.

Going out with the 05A5A hottays on Friday! Muahaha. I hope I can go meet my mom in town after that to buy my sneakers and my skirt.

I've realised that I might possibly be too optimistic/un-stressed for my own good. I hardly have anything I truly worry about, except I dunno, the faint shadows beneath my eyes. I should worry more about my studies, definitely. But even when I was struggling with Maths, I was still cruising along at own pace, taking things slow. Yet, I'm definitely not some bum who doesn't care about studying, because I do. So I really don't know why I am so optimistic. Even my sister says so. Because I told her I believed that as long as you worked hard for what you wanted, you'd eventually get it. And she told me that it wasn't true, because there are many obstacles that are sometimes beyond your human ability to overcome. She also told me not to set my beliefs so early on in life, because it wouldn't do me good next time on. I might get really disappointed that things aren't what I thought them to be, or something along those lines. But I really don't know, I still believe that as long as you want to achieve something, you can. Its just a matter of how much you want that thing. But then again, if you think about it, intangible things like love... No matter how much you force it, if it isn't there anymore, you can't salvage the situation no matter what. I guess that's when you have to learn how to let go.

Sometimes, I think it is unfair that others should not be as happy as I am. I wouldn't say I'm extremely happy and delirious with joy, but I'm content and reasonably satisfied with my life. I just wish that my friends could have better lives and just be happier in general.

Anyway, I gotta run. My mom's nagging at me to get off the computer.

Till I blog again, ta!
