had a short break from studying today. started the day with a consultation session. and boy was it busy. i think i more or less was talking non stop from 9am to 1 pm? it was so busy today and aside from me wl and cyc there was still bertrand and even wm popped by later. and yet we couldnt even finish on time.

as a result we had to give au petit salut a miss (dang... i've been wanting to eat there since god knows when). haha anyway we celebrated wm's belated bdae at NYDC. the pic speaks for itself.

haha. then it was back to mugging again. sigh.

anyway as i was going to school today, i heard a mother say to her daughter "you're very smart but just sooooo lazy!" and i wondered what effect that would have on the child. obviously the intention of the mother, i guess, is to spur her daughter on and motivate her to work harder. but i just couldnt help feeling that this semi praise semi criticism would have the opposite effect. somehow i think that the child, who is already lazy (which is why the parent even made the comment in the first place i guess...) , would probably think "hey at least i'm smart, so i can get by even though i do less work and since i'm not aiming to be the next astronaut into space, i might as well take it easy." or then again it might be just my weird neurotic way of thinking again. haha!

anyway i'm going go dream of solutions to hungerford in la la land now. haha. ganbatte to me! and to all of course.
