Demon of Procrastination Rears its Ugly Head Again

This is what happens whenever I try to study math:




Weird.. angel things. Dream Theater lyrics. Dream Theater logo. An eye. My name (twice). Pink Floyd lyrics. An apple. A globe. Piano keys. Some math. And an elephant shaped like a tennis ball, holding a tennis racket. With his trunk.

I wonder what my mom would say if she saw this paper. She tends to analyze whatever I doodle.

For example, I used to draw butterflies a lot. And whenever she saw them she'd to say,
"This means you're longing to be free. Free of what, Danya? Tell me."

Then when I switched to flowers she'd say,
"Ah, so. You have bloomed. Does this mean you're free of whatever was bothering you? I'm glad."
And she leaves the room with a satisfied smile on her face.

As for eyes, I've been drawing them since 4th grade. Apparently they mean:
"Danya, you're feeling like you're constantly being watched. By whom, Danya? Tell me."

She also comments on how I write my name a lot. It means I am a narcissist. I am awed by the fact that she can so artfully balance between calling me a narcissist on some days, then telling me I need to feel more confident on others.

My mother is a weirdo. Like mother, like daughter, I suppose.

I wonder what she'd say if she saw that elephant tennis ball.

List of possible scenarios:

"You have a secret need to whack an elephant with a tennis racket."

"Wow.... This is... This is... deep, man. Real deep."

"Honey, have you been taking something? Are you riding the white pony?"

"This is...... This means..... You............ You're feeling.... This is beyond my area of expertise.... I'm calling a psychiatrist."



Math final tomorrow. Gulp.

Ah, Well

I was planning on writing an entire post about how much I hate our physics teacher.

(Needless to say, I did really bad today. Newton's 6th law: Danya never does well in physics. And if one of you leaves a comment telling me I'm going to get a full grade, I'm sorry One, but you are going to suffer the wrath of an angry Danya. I know I'm like the girl who cried wolf; I know that practically everytime I said I did bad I ended up getting a good/okay grade, but this time, I'm telling you: there's a friggin wolf).


Rocketing on. I'm too pissed off/tired/sleepy to write that post today. For some reason, I'm feeling like a hopeless romantic at the moment. I really don't know why.

So I'm just going to share with you a series of slightly cheesy with extra mozzarella on top quotes or sayings that will either make you feel very sad or give you tiny goosebumps and small butterflies in your tummy.






“One day you will ask me which is more important: my life or yours? I will say mine, and you will walk away not knowing that you are my life.”
~ Khalil Gibran





"I want to make you feel beautiful all of the time.
I want to make you feel the way I feel when I look at you."
~ (doesn't matter)







Sulafa Marley, this is for you:

You may not be her first,
her last,
or her only.
She loved before;
she may love again.
But if she loves you now, what else matters?
She’s not perfect - you aren’t either,
and the two of you may never be perfect together.
But if she can make you laugh,
cause you to think twice,
and admit to being human and making mistakes.....
Hold onto her and give her the most you can.
She may not be thinking about you every second of the day,
but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break:
her heart.
So don’t hurt her;
don’t change her;
don’t analyze,
and don’t expect more than she can give.
Smile when she makes you happy,
let her know when she makes you mad,
and miss her when she’s not there.”
~ Bob Marley







"He knew that 'I love you' also means 'I love you more than anyone else loves you, or has loved you, or will love you,' and also 'I love you in a way that I love no one else, and never have loved anyone else, and never will love anyone else.”
~ Jonathan Safran Foer
Everything is Illuminated






"The most beautiful view is the one I share with you."
~ Author Unknown




As one final note, I would just like to make an honorable mention to how clumsy I've been these past couple of days.
I dropped the lemon juice jar (it broke)
I cut my toe (it still burns)
I dropped the TV remote (it broke but I taped it back together again)
I dropped the cookie jar (it broke)
I ruined my stereo (put it in the 220v outlet instead of the 110v one)
I banged my head into the freezer's door (second time this month)
**Note to self: Never ever open the freezer door then the refrigerator door without closing the freezer's door first. Otherwise, when your hunt for food ends and you quickly pull your head out of the fridge, you will bang your head into the freezer's door.
Today in the swimming pool I got flipped upside down on the inflatable toy whale then the inflatable Spiderman float thing.
(According to Samar, I have no sense of balance. According to me, her toys are imbalanced).
The list goes on but I'm afraid that I will sound like an incompetent fool.

I swear, physics has deep-fried my brain.
Actually, it stir fried it and turned it into Mu Shu Pork.

A Phenomenon

Here's a fashion trend I'll never understand.


I'll let the pictures scream for themselves:









On another crickety note - Physics final tomorrow.


I really hope that this...



... does not happen.

I've seriously never studied this much before. I didn't even procrastinate! Okay, I did fall asleep (a lot) but I practically studied for 2 days straight. Alright alright, that is a slight exaggeration, but seriously, I studied, and that's a step further than what I usually do.

If I don't get a 40/40 tomorrow, in the words of the amazing Russell Peters:

Somebody gonna get hurt reeeeal bad.

Well, yeh........

Me, most likely.


Good luck ladies.
