My Day of Embodying Procrastination

I'm meant to be doing some hardcore studying for Mandarin as my oral exam is next Friday and yet somehow I find myself updating my dear blog that I've not touched since July. Hmm.

Jobs I've found for myself to do in lieu of studying:

  • watered my plants.
  • make bread (Foccaccia to be precise)
  • booked a wedding show.
  • taken pictures of me and Coco.
  • taken pictures of my Mooncake - 中秋节快乐!(Meaning "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!" Hah! I've done some mandarin!)
  • Backed up my Blackberry and sync'd the pics from it.
  • Browsed Facebook.
  • Done laundry.
  • Had a Stephen Chow movie on whilst I was trying to study - perhaps confusing my head because I was listening to Cantonese whilst trying to take in Mandarin.
OK I managed to do SOME Mandarin but not enough to the extent of retaining much knowledge that wasn't already ingrained into my memory.
