High-stressed mode

For the first time in a LONG LONG LONG while, I am finally feeling stressed up over school. Very very stressed. So much so that I am unable to cope. I am, in fact, overwhelmed by my impending examinations and due to the unfortunate fact of not having much of a practice when it comes to dealing with pressure, I find myself crumbling to that 6 miserable letters that can either bring humanity a challenge in our otherwise mundane life, or cause a whole host of stress-related diseases that will end a life we often lament as 'boring' and soon, 'I have no life' will be brought closer to fact than fiction.

Newsflash.
Andy called me earlier today to say that one of my female hamsters have escaped. We are baffled by the whys and hows. Well, not really why. Probably she's bored. I can understand it. She's probably as much of an escapist like her owner, yours truly. That issue gave me another level up in the stress-o-meter. I was dutifully power levelled (a term we used in gaming to indicate a process of accelerated leveling to attain higher levels, through ways like tagging along with a higher level character to leech off his experience points when he is killing high level monsters which you normally would not even come into contact with as a newbie) when he told me 7 hamsters are proving to be a little hard to handle. Okay. I am playing it down. It's a lot to handle especially school. Therefore. I am now officially under Master Level stress. A little more and I am sure I will find myself a comfortable little spot in Hougang Chalet with other comrades under Godmode stress.

To make matters worse. I slept for a full 11.5 hours last night. Don't ask me how I did it. I am a natural when it comes to sleeping. It takes me less than ten seconds to fall asleep everyday. When there's an upside, there's bound to be a upside, right? Hell yeah. Now I'm feeling guilty as hell (I napped yesterday in the afternoon for 2.5 hours!). AND.. I just saw a stack of psychology notes lying around. That is just a tiny preview. No, I shouldn't even use a 'stack' to begin with. Let me try this again. Rewind. AND.. I just saw a TOWER of psychology notes lying around. Yeah. That feels way better. Right.

Impending examinations.. impending death? Help!!

My other evil twin.
Poor Andy is under a hell lot of stress as well. Exams in a week plus. And a take home exam to complete before then. Craploads of work to be done at the office. Craploads of research left to do. Poor thing. Sigh. Poor things. That other thing would include me. Sigh sigh.

Alrighty. Back to my books. Dammit. Have a good evening ahead everyone! Sigh sigh.

A song that makes me smile, all the time :) Life is so much more :) Oh well, maybe an inspiration to make me mug. Tatas!

Switchfoot - Gone
She told him she'd rather fix her makeup
Than try to fix what's going on
But the problem keeps on calling
Even with the cellphone gone
She told him that she believes in living
Bigger than she's living now
But her world keeps spinning backwards
And upside down
Don't say so long in the cellphone
Don't spend today away
Cuz today will soon be

Gone, like yesterday is gone,
Like history is
Gone, just trying to prove me wrong
And pretend like your immortal

She said he said live like no tomorrow
Every day we borrow
Brings us one step closer to the edge (infinity)
Where your treasure, where's your hope
Forget the world and lose your soul
She pretends like she pretends like she's immortal
Don't say so long
Your not that far gone
This could be your big chance to makeup
Today till soon be

Gone, like yeterday is gone,
Like history is gone,
The world keeps spinning on,
Your going going gone,
Like sumemr break is gone,
Like saturday is gone
Just trying to prove me wrong
You pretend like your immortal your immortal

We are not infinite
We are not permanate
Nothing is immediate
We're so confident
In our accomplishments
Look at how dark it is

Gone, like frank sinatra
Like elvis and his mom
Like al pachino's cash nothing lasts in this life
My high school dreams are gone
My childhood sweets are gone
Life is a day that doesn't last for long

Life is more than money
Time was never money
Time was never cash,
Life is still more than girls
Life is more than hundred dollar bills
And oh the town fills
Life more than fame and rock and roll and thrills
All the riches of the kings
And up in wills we got information in the information age
But do we know what life is
Outside of our convenient lexus cages

She said he said live like no tomorrow
Every moment that we borrow
Brings us closer to the God who's not short of cash
Hey bono I'm glad you asked
Life is still worth living, life is still worth living
