helloooo... i just had my Phone Conference with Dr. Don about my first draft for my writing module... i'd written about whether the self was mental or physical.. and he said it's WAAAY too much info and research to fit into 3-4 pages.. but whyy! i spent so long trying to get 4 pages worth of stuff! but now i have to focus on just ONE para that Patricia Churchland wrote about in Brain-Wise.. oh mannn.. i really hope i can decipher all that philosophy stuff and write smth decent.. have to submit the final draft by sunday.. put it up in the IVLE workbin.. and i can't even go to the writing centre bcoz of blasted chicken pox! sigh. major disadvantage.

anywayz, chicken pox is MUCH better since last week.. considering i could barely open my eyes then.. in fact i was in SO much pain that i really wanted to cry out here and let everyone know how much suffering i was undergoing.. but of course, everyone goes thru this so i have no right to complain.. besides, i dont want to gross u guys out.. it's highly sick.. (ooh pun)

my skin is sooo dry tho... does that happen to everyone? it's majorly peeling and looks really gross.. only on face.. but at least it's much better.. i just hope i can recover by thurs so that i can go back on fri for phys prac.. it's really a hassle to get a make-up and all.. actually i would join sheetal/akshata/sanskriti's class on 25th but it's the day b4 physics mid-term! so no thanks.. have to get better by thurs.. and naz is gonna avoid me for dunno-how-long.. she's so freaked that she'll get it! NAZZZZZ if the doc says i can get out of the house, IT MEANS I'M NO LONGER INFECTIOUS! sheesh. same goes for sang! i have to see u before u leave! sigh. i feel like some extremely dangerous freak with a fatal disease that everyone (women and children, beware!) has to stay clear. oh well.. so much for trying to improve my social life..

oh ya.. there's brahmana sabha's 80th bday thing on 13th.. this sun.. i'll go for that if i get better too.. maybe i'll even volunteer.. and mans is leaving on 12th.. so i wanna go to the airport! all this can be done only if i totally recover by thurs.. if the crazy doc doesn't even LOOK at me and says "no, house arrest till sunday. that's an order", well i guess i don't have a choice.. so i'm jus hoping..

cow went to NUS yest.. and went for neela's lec.. well i missed that.. so sad.. i still havent even crashed med lectures and everyone seems to have.. and ash got GCE as lab mate.. and i also missed GL law guy who's not really from law but actually from arts.. and his majorly hot gf ( aishwarya rai material, says ash) and i missed tousif who crashed our lecs yesterday too... BLASTED pox. but i guess for now, the timing was pretty good.. at least it's not during the exams..

oh ya.. i think i'm applying for YEP's ooty trip this may.. must ask krups how it was in chandigarh.. and since this is in south india, in tamil nadu, i wont have problems communicating! i hope the PRE-trip stuff isn't too time consuming tho.. there's supposed to be an induction camp on 19 and 20th.. and phys mid-sem is on 26th.. well.. it's all about prioritising i guess...

k, so i'm gonna go and read now.. too much philosophy in head.. then i better start my draft and do my online assnmt! OMG! YA! ONLINE ASSIGNMENT! ok i'll go do that now.. byeeeeeee!
