I have nothing to do today. This is a very novel feeling.

I had intended to start studying, but due to extraordinary circumstances such as being late to meet Jon, I was unable to procure my course books, hence delaying me from embarking on my plan of becoming Geek of the year.

To cut a long-winded description short, I have no books to study and I have no appointments, so I have nothing to do.

Well actually, not nothing to do. I need to pack my room, but I have decided to learn from the wise ostrich in that regard.

Talking about geeks, most people don't know that I have always wanted to be one. There's something about immersing yourself wholeheartedly in studies and getting good grades that somehow appeals to me. Unfortunately I was too darn happening in JC and after due to a sad lack of determination, and I must now make up for it by being extra nerdy.

Once I get my books, of course.

ANd maybe pack my room.

School life has been interesting so far. The bones of the place is pretty much what the convocation video promised, except for large boarded up areas and the lack of most of the advertised facilities. Despite having no water coolers, however, my block redeems itself by having a cheers just across the road, which I procure my supplies from during 15 minute lecture breaks. I'm afraid I'm going to gain weight, because during both long breaks and short breaks I eat and eat.

Which is really surprising, considering the tight and healthy diet I usually keep to.

I shall go back to doing nothing.

As much fun as one can have with three hour lectures. I'm super slack, sigh.
