My exams are almost over. I am left with only 1 last paper on Wednesday; Semantics in Generative Grammar. The “lightest” exam I have taken, for it accounts for only 20% of the final grades. Which explains why I haven’t revised it AT ALL, and am still watching Bones off Tudou (well, to be exact, I *listen* to Bones, and play Cooking Mama on my NDS Lite at the same time; this is called multi-tasking, an extremely important skill to be acquired if you wish to be a seasoned procrastinator.) Anyway, I still have 30 hours before the paper (it’s at 5 fricking PM) to draw up a cheat sheet, and plus revise say, 6 chapters worth of Chomskyean grammar. Oh well.
Anyway, I bought a box of DIY hair dye today! Sure, I said I want back to black after the exams, but I couldn’t resist and got myself a box in “Deep Purple”. It looks iffy, will probably turn out iffy, but I don’t care. It’s one of those things you should do at least once in your life - dye your hair pink or purple (or both, but I can’t find DIY pink dye, so I’ll make do with purple). (Another thing everyone should attempt to do in their life is to turn up early, for ANYTHING. I reckon for many people I know, that is harder than dyeing their hair purple.) I should dye my hair tomorrow just for the fun of it. If it turns out bad, I will simply cut my hair and get the professionals to turn in back to black or something. We’ll see.
And so, another semester gone. Next semester, I’ll be a Year 4 senior. Sounds terribly terribly old and uncool. Someone asked if I will be writing a thesis, and still my answer is, “I don’t know.” There’s a few ideas floating in my head, but nothing concrete. Oh well, we’ll take a step at a time. Maybe I’d do so badly for exams this semester I won’t be allowed to write a thesis. ![]()





haha before you cut your hair off if you don’t like purple hair, must take photos and embarrass yourself here.
i like to do crazy stuff sometimes but i hate the attention it gets… ironic!
my final exam ever is tomorrow… foreign language paper, heh, so didn’t study also, haha!
as for thesis, it’s a huge pain in the ass, seriously. on the other hand, if you do it, there’s some sort of intellectual superiority you’d get compared to other graduates; they do internships, we do academic papers. shallow, but hey, the feeling is still there.
take phots and embarrass yourself here.Sure. Will do. Haha. Maybe it’d turn out brilliant :p
Thesis is pain in the arse all right, but I guess it’s like the only thing to my name, apart from the degree paper, after 4 years of painstaking classes. Heh.

totally agree. HA.
