hey peepz! am in school now, waiting for my project mate meiling, who has gone home. we are going to pia (sounds sooooo wrong) our project. sigh. our presentation is like tomorrow and we are not even half way there, despite having met for 4 times and discussed and debated and talked and laughed. sigh.
she went for bible study, then needed to go home and get her indonesian maid to vet her bahasa indonesia essay. then she is going to come back and bunk at her gal friend's place at raffles hall. and i am going to raffles hall and go into the same room with her. woo hoo!!! its like a fantasy come true. only we are going to discuss about our presentation. haha!!! i declare that this is going to be the closest thing i will ever do in terms of getting intimate with somebody of the opposite sex. oh, and the door is going to be open.
anyway, that is not the main thing i want to complain about. i want to complain about my project. here's the question:
Give a presentation/write a paper on the relationship between religion, rationalism and political ideology. Explain how each of these three empower nationalism and why ideology is considered to be vital to the effective use of political power in the long-term.
the question is damn hard lor. the question is really a sum of three questions. meiling and i could not get past even the first term "rationalism". sigh. the terms themselves are in fact vague and so difficult to specify. we had a plan last night and wanted our professor to vet, but he refused on the basis that it was not fair to the rest of the presenters, that we had his help, but not the rest. i understand where he is coming from. but i think he is just lazy. haha!!!
so, we have this 2 year 1s, meiling and i, lost amidst a sea of year 2s and 3s, totally confused and panicky. sigh. and there is no such thing as year 1s get a little more leniency. its like the adult society. its not about seniority. its about ability. either you are good, or not, year 1s, 2s, or 5s. and everyone gets marked on the same scale, on the same bell curve. crap.
and this is the same for 3 of my other modules. this sem is so screwed. i am going to get like a 2.5. i am going to have to quit dragonboat. i am going to be asked to leave usp. i am so screwed. and i sound like a himbo. haha!!! outlet, outlet. gimme a chance to whine. again. haha!!!
anyway, i will blog again tomorrow once my 20 minutes to infamy ends and whine somemore.
ciao!
