the end is near...

another semester is coming to an end yet again... seems like time just keeps racing past... and i can't help but wonder what i've accomplished this semester... whether it's been an eventful one, or one i ought to write off as yet another waste of a couple of months of my youth....

when i look back on the other 3 semesters.. it's difficult not to think that perhaps, just perhaps, i was too caught up with the demands of architecture school to fully cherish those i love and the little things... i mean. indeed. being in archi has taught me to cherish the littlest things... but... when time's racing past you and you constantly have an endless checklist of assignments you need to complete, aspects of your design you need to resolve or improve, water and air-conditioning systems you need to understand, cadding software you need to master........ it's so easy to just get roped into all of it and dissolve yourself in it all... and before you know it, another 3months has just whizzed past your ear without you even realising it.... and all you have to show for it are the assignments you rushed out, aspects of design resolved and improved, but that can still be further resolved or improved on (i swear. it NEVER ends... till submission hour arrives....) and water and air-conditioning systems that you studied and tried to understand and only understand parts of it... some parts of which you'll probably never fully understand.. (engineer's job, not mine. :p)

*takes a deep breath*

yeah. so. what have i accomplished this semester? (apart from the lovely performance and managing to tear my immune system to shreds)

honestly, i haven't a clue. i could stall for time and say,"oh. how can i say for sure when the semester hasn't ended yet?" but all that would be is a pathetic excuse.. because technically, it HAS ended. all that's left now are exams (barring the oh-so-important-and-triply-weighted submission for design...) and then it's the long-but-never-long-enough break here once again...

well. to hell with what i've accomplished this semester. i'll start afresh. a list of what i wanna accomplish this holiday. (yeah... *sheepish* i'm slacking off final production to blog about what i wanna do over the hols.. heh...)

1. DEFINITELY clear my room THEN do it up nicely...
2. learn autocad.
3. play with saffron as much as possible before she leaves.....
4. kbox like mad

think just these four will do for now.. as it is... me thinks these four will knock me out. :p great. feel rejuvenated somehow.. just by thinking of the hols... :)

back to work it is then...... ciao for now... leave you all with this song.. that's possibly overplayed.. especially in studio last sem.. i used to not be able to sleep without this and the bossa works on loop.... yet.. i never took note of the lyrics.... and well, yeah...it is so nice......... :)

So Nice by Astrud Gilberto

Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
To be a team with me

So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me

Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me

Oh yes, that would be so nice
Should it be
You and me
I could see
It would be nice

Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me

So nice, that would be so nice
Should it be
You and me
I could see
It would be nice
