Issues to mull over

Thinking over a few issues as the countdown to the end of my last semester approaches - I don't really know whether I should be happy or sad over it...

Firstly, kudos to Hock, Shawn and Daniel for initiating the PS hons break over the mid term break - although only 8 of us came, there was still a lot of joy and laughter all the same - this was one good occassion where we managed to take swipes at some of the personalities that we like and dislike - lecturers and fellow friends... But it's all in the name of fun - and seemingly so it was a good break.

Secondly, the PS honours dinner was cancelled by the department as Harris told it to me at the start of last week. I was disgusted by the department's attitude and asked him if an alternative venue was possible. It was something that most of the cohort who knew about it were ok with - in fact some of the more quiet guys were looking forward to it. Well, at the end of the day, it was resurrected - all thanks to Harris =D, but the only thing is that the venue's changed to an informal one - but I will take it all the same =)

For all who like me are PS majors, you are invited to the dinner (in case you do not know) at:

Seoul Garden, Marina Square, 1/4/2008, 7pm.

Just let me know if you cannot contact Harris - you can find him on the school's email add or look for him thru my profile in facebook haha.

Finally, as the work intensifies, I am torn between the concentration to do good research papers and the need to look for work. It's worrying on both fronts - but the best thing I can only do is to try pushing and see where I end up. Sigh...but I will look at all avenues and see what happens. And all the best to the rest of you who are handling both crazy things like I do.

Lastly, non-personal related, but hopefully Liverpool FC can keep going on its good form - Premiership and Champions League...and the LA Lakers get the top seed in the playoffs...and..hmm...England try to resurrect their rugby fortunes in the 6 nations.

And finally, I am thinking of planning for a trip - either as a grad trip or a working holiday trip in December. Will post more details on this soon as I continue my thoughts about this.
