break! finally!!!

YAY!!!!

First semester of gradschool is officially over!  I've got 3 weeks to recharge and do a little R&R.  Gotta catch up with a lot of movies I missed because I had to prioritize school and work!

I started last night with The Lincoln Lawyer and I what's a movie marathon without these: :)

In the past weeks, I was able to download a whole bunch of movies as I do countless papers from night time until the wee hours!  Lincoln Lawyer was last night, Crazy Stupid Love was a while ago, I'm halfway through Watchmen, and I'm not so sure what I'll watch next.  But I'm just really glad that at least I can not focus more on my job and take a breather for 3 weeks.  Come November, I'll live a zombie life again.
Oh, I find Lincoln Lawyer awesome, Crazy Stupid Love hilarious and sweet, and Watchmen a bit boring - BUT it's interestingly done.  Very symbolic and metaphorical I must say.
Oh, and I'm glad I have time to blog once again :)  (At least for the next 3 weeks)

soundtrip: fastcar by boyce avenue & kina grannis


Saw this the 3 nights ago, and this song has been on repeat on my player since!  I super loved listening to it the other night when it was raining.  I was lying on my bed (which is by my bedroom window), and having this song in the background just gave me such a soothing feeling - for some reason.

Well, I have been really stressed juggling work and gradschool for the past 2 weeks.  First sem for this year is almost over (thank God!).  1 more bloody and sleepless week left!  Can't wait to get a full 8-hour sleep from 10pm to 6pm (which I think is the perfect sleeping hours); to watch a latest movie (haven't done this in months!); to go videoke with my crazy friends; hit the bar on either Friday or Saturday night to have a nightlong fun dancing with my girl friends; and spend quality family time on Sundays!

genius gone too soon

I may not be an Apple user, and the only Apple product that I am dying to buy is the 13" Macbook Pro (sadly I just couldn't afford it so I settled with an HP), I would like to pay my respects to Mr. Steve Jobs - a genius gone too soon.
