JOURNAL: Amizadai (Lee Amizadai )

  • 2002-06-13 01:18:44 After this morning's Nap of Despair, I woke up and banged out nearly half my essay in 2 hours. Amazing. Looks like my essay will only be a day late.  
  • constipation 2002-06-12 18:19:30 I've spent the last four hours (4am to 8am) staring at the word document that is supposed to become a 2500 word essay by 5pm today.

    I have all my references, done all my research, planned my structure... and I can't write. I'm sitting here straining, concentrating, fingers poised over the keyboard, and... nothing. For four hours. What is wrong with me? FOUR hours. I should be done with my first draft by now. I should be pecking at the last spelling mistakes, wrapping up the bibliography.

    Four hours. I can feel my scalp gathering itself up into stress knots just thinking about it. Four hours of NOTHING.

    Now would be a good time to succumb to incredibly self-absorbed and shallow angsty despair. Desperation too.  
  • I am lacking 2002-06-12 14:07:48 3.30 am

    Ami: I am so, so tired...
    Steph: I know, so am I. I'm going for more coffee.
    Ami: Sigh, coffee doesn't work on me.
    Steph: You haven't got caffeine receptors.
    Ami: Heh, yeah. Well I'm going to brush my teeth. The mint will either wake me up or stop my heart.
    Steph: What?
    Ami: The mint. In the toothpaste. It'll give me a boost or... oh, nevermind. I'm tired.
    Steph: You poor thing. 
  • 2002-06-11 17:36:38 I just got beat about the head with a big stick of my own making. Sigh.  
  • have you any wool? 2002-06-11 10:28:10 I just came back from a dinner with a couple of friends. One of them is going back to Singapore tomorrow. It was casual enough, a meal at an Italian restaurant where the owner knows the gang and gave us a ridiculous discount for tonight's dinner. And as usual, as is the norm with this group of friends, the sexual innuendoes and personal insults were flying wild.

    Sach: Oh, did you know Es is going to NZ?
    Ami: New Zealand?
    Sach: Yeah. (Meaningfully) He's going to see... the sheep.
    Ami: Wha-?
    Sach: (Rhythmically) baa baa baa baa baaAAaaAAaa
    Es: Oh shut up!
    Ami: Lalalala! Can't hear anything! Lalalala!
    Sach: When I come back from Singapore, I better not find wool all over the house. You could set fire to the house if the wool gets into the heater.
    Es: I'll bring YOU back a sheep.
    Ami: An inflatable sheep.
    Christine: Oh! They sell those, you know.
    Ian: Yeah, they're about this big.
    Ami: I'm sure they're... a joke.
    Es: You'd be surprised, Ami.
    Sach: They probably come with a button you can press to make it baa. It'll need three double A batteries, two for the thing to make it baa and the other for the... motor.
    Christopher: Such a weak motor? Only one battery?
    Ami: LALALALA!



    My innocence! All gone! Torn to tatters!

    Brain's all dirty now. Must pour Lysol in ear...

    I must find less perverse friends.
