Ramblings of a rather average girl

School has started for me. Despite the 'lax' timetable, I feel more stressed than I did in year 2. Guessing that's how the final year of polytechnic feels like. Doing an independent study project is hard work– expected. I'm the only one shouldering all the work, hence the word 'independent'. Sometimes I wonder did I make the wrong choice by choosing to do a independent study project. It's a lot of work like my lecturer warned me a year ago (come to think of it). Sometimes, I wonder what would happen if I chose a different path. Probably in a parallel universe, I'll be doing something very different. Who knows. I'm not a quantum physician or someone who at least knows something about the theory of relativity. Too late for regrets anyway, I'm already in too deep (no innuendos) to get out. With the thought of internship in the near future is equally if not more daunting. I'm at a stage where people start asking, 'So, what do you want ...

Unlike an actual concert review, this is more like my recount of the whole thing. If you want to read my concert review go here . Shameless self-promotion, I know. Read it, don't read it, it's up to you, I don't run your life. I just want to say that Ed Sheeran is an amazing performer– he sounded so good live. Unlike The 1975 concert post (if you haven't read that, go read it if you got nothing else better to do) where my emotions were all over the place, my emotions were quite controlled this time round. And I only felt one emotion which was either content-ness (I know this is not an actual word) or happiness. I remember smiling a lot during the concert. Being a fan of Ed for almost 4 years, watching him perform live was one of the best feelings ever. I can't compare this concert to The 1975's because they are very two different musicians– other than the fact that one is a solo musician and the other is a band. But both are things that I would remember f...

(source: https://unsplash.com/) This is me being 'deep' and shit. It's probably me rambling as usual. Anyways, I wondered whether people, as in human beings like you and I, do good things for altruism's sake or do we do it so we would feel better about ourselves and/or for our own consciences' sake? I mean, the best would be for you to be doing it for altruism's sake because being altruistic is good. I really don't know I'm going with this but is it bad if we do good things just because we want to feel better about ourselves and/or so that we don't betray our own conscience in a sense? Just a thought.  - Gloria

It's been a long one. So, here's an update on my rather mundane life (not that I mind it, it's just not that interesting to read but whatevs) I've officially finished year 2 of polytechnic as of yesterday. It was my last submission of the year and honestly, I have to admit that I did not put much of an effort like I would usually because I was already in the holiday mood. Work? What work? To celebrate the end of the academic year, I went out with a few of my poly friends for a karaoke session and let me tell you, it was fun yet tiring. Who knew that singing for 3 hours could tire you out? I guess my lecturer was right when she told us that this semester was not as difficult as the one before. The previous one was a killer. This one was also t...
