today was the last day of college.
and i was in a bad mood.
really bad mood.
only aggravated by the general incapacity for my classmates to keep their mouths shut.
seriously, can't they act just a little bit more dignified on their last day?
and although i was in a bad mood, at some point i realized that i will probably miss them a few years from now.
so i just want to thank them for all that they have done (need to be general here in case some people feel left out, my classmates all very pandai kira punya) and wish them the best of luck in their future endeavors.
and finally a thank you to all my lecturers for sharing their knowledge (again trying to be general here to avoid favoritism) and to ms ho for the bear (it's cute) and ms lilian for the cake (yum)
wow, thats a lot of sentimentality for just 1 post
to sign off my last day....

One Piece

well, to be serious, some elements of victorian society that were more pronounced in the works of authors of that time are lacking here, but the theme of class distinction and that of a woman "climbing the social ladder" were not uncommon in victorian works. ie Pygmalion (one of my favourites)
also the victorian mindset of keeping a good public profile is hinted at here and there.
quite a good read.
