All this is a smudge of excrement surging to sea

I know this blog is teethering into non-existence. Well if you have missed updates about my life in the past four weeks or so, not to worry, I have culled out three major trends so far:

1. I'm generally feeling unsettled by having to graduate next year and make choices. I know being able to make choices is a privilege, but it doesn't remove the niggling realisation that I'm an adult now (I don't qualify for Sakae Sushi youth buffet anymore!). Let me tell you that while networking events can be fun, they are kind of tiring too because you have to be on the lookout for yourself all the time: which person should I talk to now to improve my job prospects? At networking events you categorise people into "important" and "not so important" people, some of whom may hold the key to unlocking doors for you, and people don't feel "real" to you because they're always trying to give the best first impression. That's not a very nice way of looking at people, but that's the reality of adulthood. Thinking ahead, making choices.

2. FYP is moving, but there are a million loose strings that have to be found and tied.

3. I've been reading as many books, watching as many movies, going to as many concerts, as possible. Every week I watch 2-3 movies at the School of Art Design & Media Library. Rachel Getting Married (great dialogue), 2 Days in Paris (really funny), The Graduate (didn't make sense), etc.
