It's been over a month since I've last blogged, and I can tell you why: school work.

I so should have been done with all my assignments by now, but procrastination keeps buffeting me. Back when my lecturer announced that we had to do a book review, I couldn't wait to start. But then I couldn't get through the first chapter of Emma again so it just got held off till now.

And now I'm not even doing Emma anymore. Hellooo, John Green. In hindsight it's amazing that my friend Sin Yee gave me a copy of his book, The Fault In Our Stars, because I have so many things to write about it for the book review. Heck, even the author's own website has FAQs on the book.

Also, the second reason I haven't been able to finish my work earlier is my new obsession with nail polish. I wholly blame Xiang Ning and Gladys for that. They took me to my first manicure/pedicure ever, and which girl wouldn't fall in love with the way her nails shone after that?

Hence lately I've been staying up way later than my self-imposed bedtime of midnight, and turning up to work more zombiefied than usual. On the plus side, my nails are pretty. Well, to me anyway.

And isn't that all that matters? If I think my nails are pretty, then it doesn't matter who doesn't. Like this particular comic I saw on Facebook, "If you think you're sexy, then damn it, you are sexy."

I can't agree with that enough.


"If you think you're hungry, then damn it, you are hungry."
