New Rosin!

Rosin makes a world of difference.

Seriously. My eyes have been opened. Hello, Pirastro. Goodbye, Paganini.

Recently I have been wondering why my bow wasn’t resonating as I wanted it to. My vibratos weren’t getting through, my resonating pitches fell flat, and the double stops at the frog sounded squeaky and forced.

Now, my boyfriend uses Evah and my lover (?!) uses Tonica, and while I was browsing JS Fisher I found that Pirastro actually manufactures rosins tailored to these string sets.

OMFG OMFG MUST GET NOW!

After a quick permission, I purchased them, and it came in mail today. As I’m practising Tchaikovsky after leaving it alone and forgotten in some dark corner of my music cabinet for seven years, I applied the rosin, and played the intro.

OMFG. Is that really me?! Actually, is that really my bow?! My bow glides effortlessly, while the sound is richer, more vibrant. The traction’s better. I need to force less. The sound’s more powerful, the higher registers more smooth, the lower registers sweeter.

Being a conzertmeister ensures you do one thing: practise.

I’m starting Nel Cor Piu Non mi Sento and Ernst’s polyphonics. My hand is going to die.

To become a soloist

 

The concert series is over. And boy am I glad.

A lot of us – that is, anyone who is a performer on stage – always wants a solo, be it ballet, violin, or jazz. And it’s understandable, I think. You get all the flowers, all the attention, all the laudatory comments (and then some)… you get to be the princess for the night.

Unfortunately, not quite so for me. My hands get cold to the point they are freezing. My breaths become shallow, my heart rate soars. There is a flutter of excitement, apprehension, and fear. I want to run away. And I can’t. I need to smile. Go out there. Face the audience. Give my best.

I can’t count how many times I’ve been on stage, whether it be a small recital or concert series. And yet I have stage fright. On the other hand, it’s exhilarating. It’s exciting. It’s sort of like a drug.

I’m also fairly certain my teachers won’t be impressed with my performance. They never are. They always expect more, for some reason. “You can do better” seems to be their motto for me…

Baccano di Espresso!

My family recently decided (recently as in for a few months) to purchase an espresso machine. As some of the readers may know (or not), my family is a huge lover of teas and coffees, and it didn’t really make much sense not to have one. Oh, we had one, yes, but it was one of those really old manual style ones before the semi-automatics came into being. So I was sent on a hunt.

Now the thing about espressos (or coffee or wine or tea, for that matter) is that it’s sort of an art. Not a science, no. It requires a very sense-based adjustment that doesn’t have a formula, and the opinions vary from one to another: aluminium is good. Aluminium is not good. You want a big portafilter. You don’t want a big portafilter. the grinder should be separate. The grinder shouldn’t be separate. One shouldn’t buy a grinder at all, but instead by ground beans. E.t.c. E.t.c.

To be honest, I don’t think it makes that much difference. I have never heard of anyone going “Oh, you rotten person, you didn’t brew this correctly! Clearly you didn’t use a big portafilter” upon imbibing. But clearly they make a difference, or something.

Anyway, after much consideration and seeing a $100 off from a Gaggia machine, we decided to purchase it. It shipped fast (yey for UPS); it was packed quite well; and the price was good. And it arrived today.

I should have known it would be a perilous quest to get my first drink of espresso, considering that it’s a freaking Italian product.

First, the beans. As we don’t have a burr grinder (yet), I was sent by my mother to buy the beans on the way back home from uni. Fine. I searched on Yelp, found Lavazza very close to my other campus, and after surviving through the physical chemistry exam and a differential equations class, I hopped onto the shuttle bus. I got dropped off. I turned on my GPS service on my phone. Yelp stated that they close at 9:00 PM. Fine.

So I walked from E. Pearson to Walton, which is about a five minute walk. Mind you, this is before five pm. Clearly still normal business hours. The Lavazza was a teeny tiny place, but looked cosy. I pushed the door open and…

nothing happened.

Pushed again. Nothing happened. Some fat git inside (I think he was the barista) looked at me, but did nothing. Pushed again. Nothing. Puzzled, I looked at the operating hours.

… FOUR PM?!

If this was NatWest in the colonnade at Guy’s Campus, I’d give up. But this was Michigan Avenue. I was irritated. Six might be a reasonable time, but four clearly isn’t. There are still businessmen working at 4 pm. What if they wanted a cup of coffee? Starbucks would be operating; Lavazza would lose money.

But clearly they weren’t concerned.

Irked, I walked down the street, went to John Hancock Centre, and went into the Italian food shop/restaurant. They were open (they close at 7.30). Bought the beans. Went home. Unpacked the espresso machine. Ate supper. 

And then came the time to use the Gaggia Baby Black. First thing that puzzled me was there were three filters, while the manual clearly indicated just two. One was clearly just a single; the two others were doubles, but one just had one hole and the other had slightly larger holes (plural to a greater degree). Not sure about which one to use, I dug out the manual.

Nothing.

Read again. Nothing. Irked, I looked through the French translation. Utterly nothing. What kind of a manual was this?! I looked through the directions to making an espresso. Still nothing; what was even more puzzling, it said “to fit the filter (10 or 11) into the filter cup holder (9), then fit 9 to 11. How can you fit something into another, then fit that other thing back into that thing? That is physically impossible.

After searching on google and coming across a post by someone who had the same query, I proceeded to make my first cup of espresso. I used the double cup filter, pressed on, and waited…

and brown liquid sprayed out, some into the cups and a lot on the table cloth.

I was beyond irked at this point. I was also hating most Italians at this point, and was cursing most of the famous modern Italians, starting with Berlusconi to Carla Bruni (who is politically a French but she’s still an Italian). Italians clearly can’t be related to Romans; Romans made the aqueducts that are still in use today, while the Italians can’t even properly make a freaking espresso machine. The manual said NOTHING about “OUR MACHINE CHEERFULLY SPRAYS COFFEE ONTO YOU AND INTO THE CUP” clause. Instead, there was a curious black plastic part that evidently was supposed to go with “the good crema device”, but the good crema device wasn’t even in there.

“Maybe that black thing goes into the holder”, said my mother.

“That’s not what it says in the manual.”

“Oh, come now,” said my mother, “do you really thing Italians would read the manual before using this machine? Just try it.”

So I did. And lo and behold, no more spraying. My question is, why didn’t they just scrap with the retarded engineering which clearly is a failure and just make a better filter holder? Instead they just added this black plastic thing the size of my pinkie fingernail and did away with it. It’s prone to loss, breakage, and it’s just plain bad planning. I knew Italians weren’t exactly Germans (my philosophy professor or S. Git Giachetti, is a prime example) but this is beyond belief. Can’t they do anything right (apart from make shoes)?!

Needless to say, I can never live in Italy until I retire and no longer care about personal growth. When I’m seventy and am just looking to live my life as hedonistically as possible, I might move there. But spending 30 minutes trying to figure out the manual is just a waste of my time.

Gaggia, I am very very disappointed in you.

And the march just goes on.

I have slept for the total amount of 12 hours for the last three days. Last night, I had to write three papers that are due next week. I have a physical chemistry exam this Thursday, a Modern Physics exam next Monday. And it literally feels like somebody is whipping me to trod forth, as if I am a racehorse that needs to finish a three hundred mile race before the end of the day.

Needless to say, not happy. At all.

This is literally how America works. You start running. And then you run faster. But everybody's running faster than before. So you run even faster, trying to get ahead. Some people still run faster. You run faster and faster, and the lactic acid's killing your legs, but you just can't take a rest...

What I'd love to do is take a nap. But I have a student coming in for writing instruction in 23 minutes. Lovely.

Yes. Your Degree is Worthless.

Contrary to what everybody tells you, majors evidently do count when it comes to the hard green cash. Of course, you’re better off majoring in mathematics when applying to law school just because your scores will be better, but looking at just bachelor levels, it seems that you’re better off doing cold, hard sciences.

The top achievers were engineering (of course), but other scienc-y stuff came in as well, such as applied mathematics and physics.

On the other hand, those which are generally called as Humanities came in quite low. What was surprising was, fashion design beat psychology. Granted, they seem to be the same in rigor of the curriculum (do you have to trudge through 50 pages of nothing but formulae and derivations? No. Do you have to sit in the lab for three hours watching the proverbial paint dry? No. Do you have to solve 50 problems for homework and hope to god that what you’re doing is right and not quietly developing an impossible physics phenomena? No.) but I think this is because of the flooding of the psych majors.

As for Philosophy (cough-junkie-cough), all I’ve learned so far is that as far as you write semi-coherently, you’ll get an A. This conclusion came from my philosophy class taken over the summer of which, I learned precisely the following:

  1. Italians can’t understand German or English philosophy
    1. This is probably due to the fact that they don’t need to suffer much. Good looking women, good food, good weather? What do you need to suffer about? (said Dietrich the German, not me)
  2. Italian professors evidently have penises for brains
  3. As far as you use big words and write something that vaguely sounds intelligent, an “respected professor who writes books” will give you an A. Never mind that I did not even crack open any of the assigned texts, missed half my classes, and wrote my final 2 hours before it was due (PS: I don’t understand why people try to establish “this professor’s very respected” just by the amount of stuff they published. If Naomi Campbell can publish a book, then it certainly doesn’t require much intellect to do so. And no, publishing papers in the Journal of Philosophy means nothing to me. If Socrates said an orange was an apple just because he was purely delusional on hemlock, we’d be tested on it and be forced to analyse it to death today.)

But then again, I’d better get paid better than those English majors, thank you very much. I have to sit in a lab, derive equations, argue with professors for hours on end just to see how time expands.

And for those of you who say “you go there to expand your horizon!!”, I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have not improved my writing skills since I graduated high school, not because I don’t learn, but because my university decided to place me out of the writing curriculum because evidently I write spectacularly. And training cognitive processes aren’t what you do at university nowadays; that’s what you used to do, back in the “good ol’ days at Oxbridge” as J’s father said once, but you are thrown information of which you are to digest it and regurgitate it on paper as much as possible and as fast as possible. Mathematics and the sciences may require some understanding (induce, deduce, the works) but English? Anyone with some reading skills and some thinking ability can do that, as I’ve learned.

Of course, if you say “Well, I’m certain I will become the next John Locke! People will analyse my texts and my notes for eons”, then I defer to thee, my friend. But as long as what you did in university was sit on your rear end and get stoned, too bad if you don’t land a job in this career-appalling day and age.

“If T-Mobile gets swallowed by AT&T, I’m leaving the country!!”

Said IM yesterday morning.

And to be honest, I’m inclined to agree.

IM and I have been faithful T-mobile users in the US. Heck, I was a T-mobile user back in London. My best friend in London uses T-mobile. My best friend here and my research professor both use T-mobile. And apart from one crappy incident during which I had no service over the weekend, the company’s doing fine. I like their monthly pay as you go plan, and I don’t mind not having top notch smartphone. It’s a good enough company that offers my needs at a cheap price.

It certainly beats AT&T, aka “the demon reincarnate from hell”, as IM said. AT&T just plain sucks. Dropped calls, bad customer service. E.t.c.

So when those two merge, we’re in big trouble.

A. We hate AT&T. That’s why we chose T-mobile. As internationals (as opposed to ‘I’m rooted to the USA and will never leave this country’), GSM is a must. Only T-mobile and AT&T offers this.

B. AT&T are just plain more expensive.

C. Their customer care stinks.

D. Did I mention the DROPPED CALLS?

So it’s either half the nation petitions Verizon to get GSM service, or we're going to hope to all the deities out there that the DOJ would block this merger.

On the other note, I managed to ding – ever so slightly, to the point you need magnifying glass to notice it – my new phone. I’m greatly annoyed. Why does that bloody phone have to be so difficult to open?

Of course, JB is gloating, much to our chagrin. IM and I use android, but he’s a freaking iPhone (jailbroken) user. In fact, he uses MacBook and an iPhone. I’m surprised he hasn’t proposed to Steve Jobs.

Guess who’s more computer savvy? Definitely not the Apple User.

Don’t Kill Yourself.

I suppose this is a hypocritical thing to say.

IM is trying to whittle his class down (two sections, 80 people each) into 60 people (2 sections, 30 people each) or less. He originally requested one section of 30 students, but the department screwed something up. And then told him too bad.

Monsieur IM is not a happy chap, and therefore went ahead and decided to do everything he could to get as close as he could to his goal – 30 people class – and evidently this means being as cruel as possible to the poor, hapless medical student wannabe freshers. He figured that most people do not like 8.00 am class, nor do they like ridiculous curves for an A, and so decided to do both. He declared he had no office hours, so it’s appointment only. A is 95% and above. The class begins at an ungodly hour. Et cetera.

JB is faring only slightly better. He is a lab assistant and leading a fresher research team (part of the curriculum, evidently), and is wondering what sort of a bad thing he had done in his previous life to merit such a torture. His Rachmaninov went from cool, collected and passion hidden beneath a collected facade into a general overtone of “I’m just tired and need to sleep”.

I, as you may know, have taken upon myself to endure 21 credit hours of work. This includes Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics classes. And an English class (of which I am slightly peeved; if you are an university student and do not know the Protestant Reformation and why it happened, and how it was caused, then your educational institution was clearly a failure.), and a completely inconsequential philosophy class of which the assignments have nothing to do with the lectures whatsoever. And two researches. And two volunteerings.

I’m exhausted most of the time, but when I think about my friends, I can’t exactly sit down and take a rest. I feel that I need to keep moving. This isn’t a pleasant experience, but I suppose that’s what I came back for.

First Day of Lectures

And it already looks insane.

I probably should not have taken on 21 credits this semester, but I sort of had to. I highly doubt I’d be able to do three research projects at one time, and in order to minor in Chemistry, I need at least one credit in my electives in Chemistry. The only choices (apart from taking at least three credit hour class) is either research or a seminar that’s from four to five; there is no way I’m taking that.

What’s even worse, IAN CLARK is in my class this semester. Out of ALL the classes that he could have selected, why on earth did he have to select mine?! Granted, it’s philosophy and it’s writing intensive (that’s “let’s write 2000 word paper every week” for those of you who don’t know), but couldn’t he pick another bloody class?! I’m an object attached by an inclined plane wrapped helically around an axis. I’ve never had a class with that bloody sodden git before. I never wanted to. The only thing we agreed on was debate.

I’m going to end up killing him. With KCl. And then decoupage him with methylcrylate, and throw him into the biohazard waste disposal. With the amount of crap he’s been doing, he really belongs there.

My math professor seems to be very well acknowledged, but as far as I’m concerned, that doesn’t mean anything. A professor can be very well acknowledged and be an awful teacher, or be completely unknown and be amazing. We shall see.

Physics is Physics. Except we’re jumping into relativity first thing this semester. I think that’s a bit jumping ahead, because I did a course in special relativity and that took me the entire summer, but that’s for another day’s discussion.

Being a TA, a writing tutor, and a 21 credit student is going to be a bit wacko of an experience. We shall see how it goes.

University students are not the same

Having attended both American and British universities as a full-time, non-exchange student (aka you’re my homie and you won’t be pampered like a guest), I’ve come to realise that there are quite a few differences across the pond. So, instead of sucking up to Stefano the idiotic philosophy professor (who, by the way, is a freaking communist and evidently thinks Nietzsche is the greatest man ever to grace this world) by reading some asinine chapters from Machiavelli, I will be reviewing the differences of these to types of students. Let’s name it…
the inter-continental face-off.
US
UK
Study time US wins hands-down. I’m amazed we don’t keel over and die from the amount of stuff we have to do (I have no idea about the humanities, but we sciences have it rough).
Partying Gotta give it to the UK folks. I was getting clubbing invites EVERY SINGLE DAY. And I know some people went EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.
Stress level US hands-down again. Loans, homework, “OMFG I got a B and now I can’t get into law school”…
Relationships Easy screws are common. But I certainly don’t see any girl bawling her eyes out over a man. I saw a girl bawling her eyes out over a guy at least once a year.
Maturity US kids are much more mature. You have to be, if the tuition’s sky-rocketing. That, and marks count for your future career.
Extra comments American university students are American workers in waiting, and therefore the lifestyle is a cushier version of it. Which means, by the end of the term, half of us are blue with worry, half of us are white with fatigue, and half of us are green from just ill health. Our lives are ruled with gadgets, e-mails, and professors demanding papers turned in via e-mail because the professor doesn’t want to carry 50 papers home to grade. Coffee is the staple of our diet. British students seem to enjoy the last vestige of childhood before being sent out to service the unemployed and the Royal Family, but it seems in the inside they are envious of American yuppie-esque life-style with Starbucks runs and laptop totes. Nevertheless, they seem not to realise that the reason we need Starbucks is not to look cool but because we are so freakishly tired most of the time with the exams and we need caffeine to wake up. Well, some of us. Either way, they seem to have more fun.
So that’s it, folks. My comment? If you want to work like a racehorse and actually do something with your life that involves career advancement, come here. You’d certainly get paid for all the hard work you’re doing (at least, it won’t go ignored). Looking for family holidays every summer? Forget it. Stay in England.

People are desperate. Hang on in quite desperation, then.

Okay, maybe not. But people are DESPERATE.

I’ve always been interested in how people decide to mate. With primates, it’s fairly easy; the biggest, baddest, toughest gorilla gets the biggest, strongest, most fertile gorilla. The end. No “that gorilla is skinnier” or “that gorilla is funnier”. It’s straightforward and simple.

Evidently mankind had to take it a step further and make it all confusing, because I have signed up for okcupid under the pretence that I am looking for a boyfriend, and… –gasp!- men are desperate. I’m supposing to get laid. Is sex that important over here?! I’m not saying Europeans or Asians are any better (after seeing JB’s perverse preferences in poetry, I’m inclined to say that he has pretty weird fetishes going on there), but crikey, as soon as one says “I’m not going to sleep with anyone until marriage”, goodbye.

Anyway, so here is what I’ve found out:

  1. American men of white descent (dunno about European or Australian or New Zealander) are REALLY picky. Message them, no response. Nada. Sorry, boys, you are not that good looking. As far as I’ve seen, I have not seen anyone on par with J… and he’s certainly not that cocky.
  2. European men dig my looks. American men don’t at all. Hmm. Wonder why.
  3. What is conventionally artistically beautiful is NOT attractive over here (dunno about Europe). A rejected snapshot of my modelling portfolio is gaining more attention than what I deemed a better photograph.
  4. JB is now officially a really cute, sophisticated, and utterly handsome nerd. Which is a rare species.
  5. IM is one HELL of a hot dude.
  6. J is a freaking Adonis. End of discussion.
  7. Some people try too hard to be nice.
  8. I evidently only get attracted to people who are mostly pure-blooded (90+% one nationality).
  9. African Americans like Asian women. Unfortunately that is not reciprocated.
  10. Some people cannot spell to save their lives.

So, folks, here is the lesson to be learned today: hanging on in quite desperation is not just the English way, it is THE way. But hey, what the hell, most people are looking for sex anyway.

I wonder if they’re aware that they’re really barking up the wrong tree. As the trio of men can testify quite extensively. I have half a mind to say yes to JB, but he’s currently seducing a drow priestess into joining his cause (JB, weren’t you a sun elf paladin? Are you supposed to be seducing people…?), so maybe I’m doomed.

Also, Benjamin Bunny is FREAKING MARRIED. There goes the first love of my life.

Some Opinions from the Voiceless

So the Royal Wedding occurred. Good for them.

Or not.

I was never a fan of the Royal Family of Great Britain. Their scandals were a bit too numerous to hold them in high regard.

JB, on the other hand, didn’t hold them in high regard, but didn’t have anything against them either. Until now.

JB: I can’t care less if Kate Middleton drowned and died tomorrow.

Me: That’s hardly loyal.

JB: I can’t be. Throwing a costly wedding when people are losing jobs is hardly responsible. I have had enough with the Royal Family. I certainly don’t seek the Jacobins to come storming in, but this is disgusting.

Do keep in mind that this gentleman was educated in Eton, went to Oxford, and is fully ingrained in… well, Britain. He even votes bloody Tory.

Stop Backstabbing, Damn It

I’m not saying that professors are all backstabbers and they deserve to die a most painful, gruesome death, but this one bites it.

A few months ago I applied to one of the professors in the biology department to do research. I, unlike others, have no plans of becoming a clinical physician. I don’t care that there are three million people dying of horrible diseases everyday. I just don’t. I want to become a researcher, yes, a researching physician, yes, but at most all I want to do is sit in a laboratory setting and not speak to anyone all day.

Well, the scheduling REALLY didn’t work out, so I didn’t get the post. The professor, however, told me that I should reapply this semester, because one, I sound like such an enthusiastic researcher, and two, because he’d want someone who isn’t looking to buff up a med school resume for once.

And then he goes ahead and gives it away. The post. To someone else.

I’m not saying I’m the most deserving, but COME ON. I am getting really peeved here. It doesn’t help that most Physics research needs a substantial amount of prep work before you even get to say E=mc2. Biology is borderline non-science, and that’s why it’s easy to do research. It’s mostly luck, and almost no theory.

So here it is. The fucking biologists deserve to die. They waste the most money and don’t do shit.

How Ignorance can Cost

So after the earthquake our university, like any other university, is hosting events to aid those in NORTHERN Japan.

Keyword being northern.

The thing is, they are doing bizarre things to get this done. Let me give you examples:

  • Folding a paper crane when someone donates – no, you will not get the crane – and then sending it to Hiroshima, which is nearly on the other side of the country
  • Raising money, and then, for some inexplicable reason, sending it to a sister university, which is located approximately 200 miles away from where the earthquake happened
  • Expecting that people nowadays are good-hearted enough to walk by someone asking for a donation and then donating

Umm…?

I am baffled.

Do they even know where Sendai is?

Les Gâteaux Roses

Mon père, ma mère, et moi sommes allés a la pâtisserie dans Wicker Park  aujourd’hui. C’est chaude… je pense que le printemps arrive. Fonte des neiges, et il a fait beau.

J’ai acheté cinq gâteaux.


KIMBERLY
Chocolat blanc, framboise, et gâteau Waldorf-Astoria.


NOM INCONNU
Rose, framboise


NOM INCONNU
Grenadille et chocolat noir

Je n’ai pas mangé la mousse de rose et framboise; la gâteau de grenadille et chocolat noir est de ma mère. Kimberly a été très délicieux. C’est très riche.

I live in the Arctic Cap!

That is not fabricated. That is an actual view from the library at my university, on the second floor, overlooking the lake.

Seriously? I would not be surprised if polar bears were walking around.

The library wall is glass-panelled, so it offers a maximum view of the lake. During the summer it is beautiful; during the winter?

Well, I am now certain that I had somehow teleported to the North Pole.

Neige Neige Neige!

Dieu ne voyait la nécessité de décharge 30 cm de neige hier, pour il y avait une tempête de neige et j'ai dû marcher à travers elle de rentrer chez eux. Il a été malheureux, froid, et mon nez était rouge et sur le point de tomber quand je suis arrivé chez moi. Les classes ont été annulées aujourd'hui.

Paris de Jour

J'ai finis faire la boîte pour Paris de Yves Saint Laurent aujourd'hui. C'était très difficile, et je suis très fatigue. Mais je suis satisfait, que c'est bien fait.

Voici ma boîte pour mes parfumées. C'est la boîte pour ma Paris que était tout nu.

La boîte et le parfum. C'est Paris, Édition Eau de Printemps. Cela a été lancé en 2009.

Mes Paris. En haut à gauche: Eau de Printemps; Rose de Verges; Jardin Romantiques; Première Roses; Roses Enchantées, Pont des Amours; Parisienne; Nuit de Fête. 


Je suis très heureuse... mais je n'ai pas Paris Originale.

The Intricacies of Female Friendships

As much as I admit that I am biologically fully qualified as a female, it seems that I had completely missed out on female friendship lecture given throughout one's life. Most often the small intricacies are lost on me, nuances go over my head, and inevitably I am no longer able to keep up with the minute dynamics that hold the female friendships together, and all around me it tends to go caput. So understandably most of my friends are steadfastly male, meaning that I get even less chance to get exposed to the said social rituals the females go through.

What I had noticed recently is that there is A LOT of backstabbing in female friendships, and evidently that is what friendship is about. Which baffles me; if you don't like that person, I'd call it self-inflicted torture to be in that person's company, and certainly I'd avoid that experience at all costs. But their relationships are convoluted on so many levels; they maintain a facade of pleasurable company, then whenever there is something that they do not like they go to a common acquaintance/friend and complain as if that friend is a customer service, then when it gets bad they proceed to stab each other in the back under the justification that it is all because of "the other person", or "they had it coming".

What I cannot understand is why men deign to date and eventually marry these females. Do they expect they would get a preferential, sincere treatment just because they have a Y chromosome instead of X? As much as I am not knowledgeable in this matter, I doubt it; of course, there is no 'common friend' this time (apart from the offspring), and so there is no wonder that the divorce rate is so high.

In conclusion: females are more treacherous than the males. Of course, there is a caveat to this statement, but I digress. And people wonder why I don't dally with females too often.

Le Ciel et l'Enfer

Jeremy est à Paris, s'amuse et fonctionne comme un modèle; c'est injuste. Mais la vie de Jeremy a toujours été une grande fête, tandis que ma vie été une grande torture.

J'ai perdu ma carte étudiante aujourd'hui. Il a été mon insouciance, mais les conséquences sont coûteuses. 50 dollars pour carte de transit! C'est impossible. Je suis bouleversé, mais il ne s'arrête pas là.

C'est le deuxième jour de classe; j'ai peur de la chimie. Je ne suis pas bon dans ce domaine, mais je dois le prendre pour obtenir leur diplôme. Physique et mathématiques sont bien; donc la chimie est mon cauchemar...

Blog… finis!

J’ai reçu une lettre de mon ami aujourd’hui, donc je me suis souvenu que j’ai eu ce blog. Pardonnez-moi, mais j’ái ètè trés occupè.

Quand même, c'est aujourd'hui le dernier jour des vacances, et je suis trés affecté. Je ne veux pas retourner à l’école; J'ai de mauvaises habitudes de sommeil qui ne sont pas d'accord avec l'école.

Je pense que je devrais dormir maintenant, mais je venais de mettre à jour mon blog disposition, qui a eu toute la nuit pour terminer. C’est trés beau, et il est maintenant sans erreur. C'est un peu satisfaisant.

Paquita - Variation V Shostakovich - Tea for Two
