Lazy Friday

I've been so swamped with work since my last entry and finally it's Friday (again) and this time knowing that there's no major tests or assignments within the next 2 weeks before Spring Break. So here I am on a very cold Friday evening, at my table, listening to Come What May - OST Moulin Rouge, blogging.

It's really been a crazy week; Down with the flu with three tests to study for, caught in an extremely long meeting and a four page long marketing essay to write on. So seriously, I am simply relieved that it's the weekend again. I know that I said I love being busy, which is of course true but of course that also includes having enough rest as well, which I've barely had since like in about 5 weeks. And for the past few days, I actually think that my body is giving in to tiredness because I've missed my alarm clock twice (an incoming text message could normally wake me up).

I really have no idea what I'll be doing this evening. Working on my assignments seem to just take the weekend mood away for tonight. I guess my next best option is to do one of my TV series marathon or get lost in that Nelson DeMille book I'm currently reading. Yeah...yeah...that sounds more like it...

*Stretches* Well...off to take a shower...

Monday Blues

Today I had one hell of a heart attack when Wooi Hau told me that we were going to have another MIS330 test this Wednesday. That would have left me with 2 nights to study and a whole day of regret for procrastinating the whole Sunday afternoon. Thank goodness I saw Carien and who said it was next week. At least that gives me more time to study for those 3 chapters.

Anyway Valentine's weekend was really nice. I baked the whole Friday midnight until about 4 something in the morning, got off work early on Saturday and actually managed a nap before going back to preparing the tiny Valentine's gifts. Went over to the girls' apartment to exchange gifts and later off to Yi Herng's to have dinner with the guys. It really was a great Valentine's in a long time. Oh and Dave gave me that Rochas Lumiere perfume, which I've been searching high and low for years. So between cupcakes, cookies, flan, chicken rice dinner and perfume...all was definitely good *smile*

Here's a little something to end this entry. It's a song by Melissa Etheridge called Glorious. I know it's a christmas song, but I more or less stumbled upon it when watching the TV Series Brothers & Sisters (which by the way is nice). I've been listening to it over and over again since yesterday. Too bad I can't download songs from here so that means I can't upload it to my iPod, unless some really generous Samaritan takes pity on me and sends it to me. *LOL* Fat chance!

Oui, je parle un peu français

I know how I've kept saying to myself how much I would love to try to blog in French. Still, my French is still too limited for me to actually blog. So just to make me feel good I'm posting my essay homework instead. For those of you who speaks French, yes I know it sounds like a 10 year old's essay. Cut me some slack please...

Mon cherie,

Merci beaucoup de toi lettre. J’ai été très heureux lire votre lettre. La plupart du temps je suis très active et très occupée parce qu’il y a toujours tant de étudie à faire chaque jour.

D’habitude, pendant la semaine, j'ai des classes chaque jour et j’ai travaille deux fois par semaine. Je déjeuner avec mes amis à Memorial Union alors que je vais à la maison. Le soir, j’ai étudie dans ma chambre. Normalement, je mange dine pendant que j’étudie. J’étudie pendant six heures chaque soir. Je dors à deux heures demi, quelquefois je dors à trois heures. J’ai beaucoup de mes devoirs chaque jour. Oh, mon dieu!

Pendant le week-end dernier, j’ai sors avec mes amis le vendredi soir au cinéma. Ensuite, nous allons chez mon amie pour écouté la musique. Enfin j'ai chez moi pour dormi. Le samedi matin, je me lève tôt pour travaillé. Apres travaille je m’amuse avec mes amis chez eux. Nous allons joué aux cartes et nous regardé un film à la télévision. Dimanche matin, j'ai à l’église seule. Ensuite, je déjeuné seule chez moi pendant je fait la lessive. L’après-midi, je fait mes devoirs et j’étudié à la bibliothèque.

Ma semaine n'est normalement pas intéressante. C’est la vie, n’est-ce pas ? Et vous ? Qu’est-ce que vous-avez la semaine et le week-end ?

Bonne semestre !

Votre Amie,

Cynthia

So that's basically how far I go in French. It's still full of mistake because I have to admit I forgot all about it until a few hours before class. Hahahaha...yup that's me the all time procrastinator! But, this time it was because I've been pretty much swamped with tests. Well back to reading pages and pages of boring facts. Darn!

A Little Last Week's Something :)

So here's a week overdue of last week's pictures. I have to say I love these pictures. It was taken at Phillip's place over at Mayfield. The best part of that night's fun was that it was a very much spontaneous alternative to the evening's plan. So who says you need clubs and or tons of people to have an equal-to-party fun? But I can't deny that last night's party really was one of the more fun ones *smiles*
