The Joy Of Mugging

or not. this has got to be one of the most painful periods of my life - the same if not worse than a levels. all that cramming is really turning me into a zombie, this sleep-walking machine that crunches data continuously. it wouldn't have been so bad if the info i studied didn't leak so rapidly, but no sooner do i complete a topic that i forget stuff that i studied previously! argh.

the a level results will be released tomorrow, and each year as i see the joyous rafflesians wave their perfect scores on the news, i recall the day in 2004 when -i- did the same...and put myself on this path, and for which i am now currently mugging for with my life. seems like the cycle will not end anytime soon.

and just when i need like uplifting songs (like josh groban's big hit) i stumble upon a beautiful but very sad song - dreaming with a broken heart, by john mayer. the version i'm listening to is by a college a capella group from the states, and the arrangement is just fabulous. i can't help but listen to it again and again. not that i've got a broken heart - probably quite the opposite actually, but there's something hypnotising about the tune. here's the original.
