So many things happening.

Let’s see. Next week I’m having a consultation session with a surgeon so my project work has to step up a gear or so. So much for hitting the ground running, right? Today I have a lab session, that is rumoured to be incredibly long. I hope it turns out okay.

Still no reply on my submission and I think I’ll make an enquiry about it soon. Maybe in a week or two, just to see if I made any mistake with the procedure.

I got invited to a birthday party of some sort, which made me feel quite special. This also means that I’ll need to be out shopping for a birthday present. (I didn’t know when her birthday was before.) It looks to be a slightly challenging shopping quest though.

I want to watch District 9. I somehow managed to trick a good friend into watching it with me. Now to figure out our schedules. I have a feeling that it’ll mess itself up somehow. Things are usually like this with our schedules, but let’s be optimistic for now.

I apparently will also be attending a concert with my sister next month, having somehow managed to trick her too.

I’m reading We Never Talk About My Brother by Peter S. Beagle. I’m only two stories in (okay, maybe four by the time this post is published). I liked the first one quite a bit, but I wasn’t too fond of the second one, for some reason.

I got some gifts from my friend who went back to her hometown yesterday. Couldn’t help thinking that it was so remarkably nice of her to remember me.

I’m thinking that Bukit Merah might see the addition of one chapter, and at least a thorough rewrite of a couple of sections before the next version, though those ideas are all sort of preliminary for now.

Right, it’s actually Tuesday night as I write this, and I have to get back to figuring out what I’m supposed to nag about for tomorrow’s project group meeting.
