Doing a PhD is tough, there I said it. No more bravado, hiding the pain and acting like the tough guy saying,”Its not that hard.” Hit hard with possible a accelerated case of comatose tiredness and the scary thought that my organs are failing, I just cant get enough rest to rejuvenate myself.
Its another of those tuesday nights when I feel, “Is it only tuesday ?”. Anyway there are tons of things inspite of this tiredness that cheer me up all the time. Like the new phd student, a girl who wore those tiny tiny shorts in the lab and was soldering and then a blob of solder fell on her leg and burnt her. Ok I know it sounds mean but it is also funny, she could have just worn long pants like I always told her to.
Im gonna 24 soon, its like almost 1/3 of your life is over, (75 because im an hypochondriac), and I look back, I kinda got everything I wanted in life 
.(now I am talking like a person about to die). Every little wish I had, I got it now. When I was in high school fighting over one piece of meat (sound like a dog) during lunch break, I would go back to the class imagining me eating a juicy steak. Now I can eat that all the time, how many times I want. I wanted a car with automatic gear shift, I have it now. I have 2 desktops at work one at home and a laptop. I have an MP3 player, a blackberry, a nikon d80, an xbox, LCD tv. I was in relationship with the best girl I ever thought existed. I have everything I ever want and I ll but the iphone 3g next week.
Anyway 13 minutes is up, the time I allocated for this blog.
* I am very tired….je suis tres fatigue….I have been working too hard averaging 12 hrs a day and its getting to me….I am in charge of this atom chip project and its a pain in the ass when you are doin it all by urself…on top of that there is the scientific advisory meeting(people who fund us) and things have to squeezed out….I havent had time to go out to even watch a single movie….
* I am obsessed with two songs by Jason Mraz…….”Im yours” and “Lucky” , I tried singing them myself but someone told me to stick to research.
* I am still obsessed with Tina Fey, I watched the movie “Baby Mama” just because of her …there was Greg Kinear in the movie which is never a bad thing, because he does do his parts well….but I wouldnt say much about the movie….as funny goes…Zohan is the funniest movie I have seen in a while with Humus and Disco breaks….
The girl from zohan is very very pretty….Emmanuelle Chirqui or something…..
* People should try the ten day mental challenge thing….its just that for the next ten days you would force yourself to think positive inspite of everything…..and then it will become a habit and come naturally to you…also another thing I have found useful is planning the day ahead the night before using google calendar…..
* I am gonna get a inflation compensation package of 300 dollars the next month….Planning to buy an Iphone 3G with it…its hard to be in singapore without gps(yaahhh right)
* I cant be bothered with the US elections because it has completely lost its merit with the addition of Sarah Palin, the governor of Alaska….I think Mc cain would be a stronger and better president but just that he is too old and Sarah Palin might end up being the president which wont be a good things…Im not sure how long the Obama magic will last but it might be enough to make him win the elections….
* I have completed 1.5 yrs of my PhD and still have another 2.5 yrs to go..It should be like a celebrity make over thing…the before and after pic…..in 4 yrs how I will change….
