i did my best to occupy myself this week.
and feel happier after that.

first, i went from cool to uncool by buying my first-ever (not shy to say that) Levi's jeans. i join 10 million others in owning the same design, same colour, same size jeans. not like i mind that, it is just that it comes with a $139.90 price tag. but of course, because epiphany finally dawned on Levi's, they have been giving $50 off for any pair of jeans for an old pair of jeans. yes, any brand; xiaolongnu brand, LeeVice included. and with a $20 gift card from cell, i blew $69.90 on a pair of Levi's. for goodness sake, i just wanted to find something to do on a friday morning.

i also found another good way to spend my time (while not reading my 50 millionth literature text) and that is to song-surf. i have been downlo-ahem-ading some good songs online. and because i was feeling a bit melancholic, i decided to give chinese songs a try and boy, was i surprised by some really captivating ones. well, i spent half a day downlo-ahem-ading songs and the next 6 days worrying if the police will catch me. so, it pretty much occupied my brain this week because i started having hallucinations that i could be imprisoned because i am 21 this year. but i am too paranoid... ... ... right?

but what was most effective was spending time with my friends. i was completely caught up with spending some quality time with friends i trust and adore like anything. having reunion dinners with cell and OVE'08 mavericks were very helpful this week. their company alone was enough to validate my happiness. walking around JP after class with my varsity girlfriends made me feel fresher too. going for tuan bai with cute teen girls like alice brightened my week. turns out, i am not as poignant as i think i am.

so what is up the next week, or the next next week?

i guess that itself, is a great question to occupy myself with for the next few weeks.
one step at a time (:
