'I've got to break outside these walls'
May. 20th, 2010 12:41 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png){kind=small}
rdm_ationI'm posting, instead of working once again. Ah well. =D
I had a pretty good day today too, I ACTUALLY CONTRIBUTED IN ASIAN STUDIES. And not just random tentative crap either, we had to do small group discussions talking about Borobudur then tell the whole tute, and when Al (tutor) was going around to anyone he just listened to us and went 'oh, you guys are fine' =D =D
It made V and I sooo happy. It's nice to feel like we've made some progress.
Other than that, long orchestra rehearsals are long. But my lesson was alright, and I'm feeling much better about having to resit this orchestra thing. I also did some good practice after orchestra, my study is finally up to speed and in tune. *grins*
And now, for a time-waster! Quiz stolen from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

5. Do you still remember the first person you kissed?

7. Would you rather take the picture or be in the picture?
I don't mind both - so long as I'm aware the photo's being taken.
