yikes! i'm halfway through the hols and i havent done a quarter of the things i set out to do. i need more me time!
got my very first B. yay! this shows what low standards i set for myself and my sliding GPA.
gazillion (and i exaggerate) people have been asking about my marital status in the past couple of days. the funny thing is they are mostly in disbelief whether i tell the truth or not. one part irritating, three parts amusing.
i ought to appreciate the trust my colleague have in me. but somehow i feel like i'm being thrown into the deep end. looks like i'd be doing a lot of convincing, confusing and mostly conning. :p the art of pretending to know.
interestingly, i have this amazing ability to be engaged in politics that doesnt concern myself. it's fascinating to find out how some people think that they are doing a lot while others feel that these some people are full of bs. then there's all the bad-mouthing and bitching. obviously, the people who do that are ignorant of my background. the things i find out when i dont partake in any obvious alliances. being in a testosterone dominated environment require a different sort of reactive mechanism on my part which i have yet to properly figure out. so far, everyone's nice to me cos i have not reached the point of needing to make them do stuff. and fundamentally, i'm far from being a threat to their ego trips. hopefully, this delicate balance would be maintained.
i miss my old friends. seems like forever since i caught up with them. bah!
