No LDK by SID
New album! It has been nearly forever since there was a new SID song that sounds like this. As usual, I love SID for Mao's awesome vocals and the really clear and sweet music. Yeah, you would wonder how rock music can be sweet, but SID is something like a combination fo rock and jazz? Perhaps it is Mao's voice that gives their songs this quality. The main attarction of SID is how their songs seem to have a certain direction. This clarity of musical direction and their own strengths and talents makes their songs very attractive. Each song has a distinct flavour that comes from the same series. So its like a whole range of flavours, but they are all chocolate-ish. Somthing along those lines. I think I am not giving SID enough credit, so you should just listen to their album. Unlikely that you would like every single song, but there are definitely a few that will appeal.
Kinda stressed out right now. So many things to do within the next one month. Nationals. CAT project. CAT Assignment 3. BSM presentation. Marketing test. Marketing project. Finance project. Finance test. Immersion programme application. Waseda application. Plan for NY extension. Plan for Taiwan extension. LOOK FOR AN INTERNSHIP. Yeah. If anyone knows of any place that needs a Marketing/Corporate Communications intern, please let me know? I am pretty desperate right about now. I know I started late, but I just realised that I have to clear my internship now. Or I will not be able to graduate in time. Which is a total pain. Unless I somehow manage to grab an internship in Japan, which is superbly unlikely. So yes. If anyone has any connections and you know I should be able to do a pretty decent job (I'm not blowing my trumpet but I am a pretty conscientious worker), please please PLEASE tell me? I've yet to let anyone who recommended me for a job regret their decision HAHA. Unless it is some super technical Finance or Accounting post, I should be able to do a decent job, so please, just help me? THANK YOU I LOVE YOU.
As you can tell, my life is in shambles right about now. My days consist of trudging to school after I crawl my way out of bed and zombie-ing my way through my classes, before I stone in meetings and somehow try to contribute to the general discussion, and then I stumble my way home to do my homework/research and anything else that needs to be done. If there is training, I try to keep my team motivated by saying encouraging things. My days go by in a whirl of research, writing papers, doing homework, training, quiet moments with my iPod on public transport intersped with conflicts, resolutions and random bouts of rest time. Some people ask why I do so many things to myself. My answer? They happened when I was not looking. I'm serious. I never expected the immersion programme, it leaped into my lap while I was printing notes for the first CAT Assignment, which, by the way, was horrible. BSM happened when I was in CAT class one Tuesday morning. And I never thought I would have to get an internship NOW. And I was not expecting to go to Taiwan immediately after NY. My peers tell me I should have expected it. nevertheless, this is said with the benefit of hindsight. Think about it. Normal people don't think fly to NY for 3 weeks, then go to Taiwan for a week, return home for a month before flying to Japan for 2 months, return home for another month and THEN fly to Japan AGAIN for a YEAR. And yet, this is likely to be what I am going to be doing if I do get into all the programmes I am applying for. In this case, I will probably have to somehow make an internship in Japan miraculously appear out of thin air. Otherwise I can say bye-bye to graduating on time. Believe me, I really want to get out of my university. i know people say that the working world is worse than school, but honestly? I think money makes a difference, thank you very much.
Superbly exhausted now. I think I should be going to bed soon. It has been a super long day that was spent doing work. Recess week is an utter lie. I was in school for more hours this week than during my normal school week. Such a sad life that we students have. School is terrible and home is too. So many stinky expectations. I am unsure why this is happening, but it is: My parents think that university is a cakewalk. Honestly, I wish it was. I wish the classes were a fluke and no one was serious about anything and that everyone would pass everything. I really wish it was like this. But no. Reality is, sorry to be cliched, super harsh. My grades matter because I want to be able to get a good job. I am, most unfortunately, not the most creative and entrepeunerial person ever to have been born on the face of this earth. I can probably write witty articles, among other nonsensical and utterly useless skills that I think are a huge joke, but I think being excellent at convincing people to hire is not in this said list of dubious skill set. Unless I suddenly chance upon this awesomely rich and fabulous guy who for some strange and obscure reason is totally in love with me and is willing to sponsor my career as a rich tai-tai... Yeah. Life is tough, and it gets tougher.
In case the main point was buried under all the ridiculous things I typed, which it most definitely is, I am not out there having fun. I don't club. I don't shop. I don't do high teas. I don't sit in salons for hours to do my hair and nails. I do really boring things like study in the school library. Like struggling to solve questions in my homework assignment. Nothing exciting nor sexy nor luxurious. I am a commoner, and I will probably live like one unless some minor miracle happens and alters the status quo. Which is why I cannot comprehend why my parents are angry that I am not home. They should be worried if I am home and am so free to repack my cupboard. Because honestly, typing this is probably the only other 'wasteful' thing that I have done this week. I need space to breathe and I am not getting any. Instead, I get chewed on for not staying at home lounging decoratively on the sofa. Hey dad, thanks for making me feel so happy that I have such awfully lengthy back to back meetings. I really don't like chilling at home and reading a book while sipping coffee. RIGHT.
Indeed, I am annoyed.
I need sleep. Nights world. This girl needs an internship~ Please be nice and kind and help~
