*Yawn*
I'm so tired today and I don't know why. I've also discovered a strange bruise on the back of my right leg and it hurts a lot. I have no idea how it got there. It's in such a strange place, I can't imagine where it came from. Anyways...
I finally caught a bit of a movie I've been dying to see. The movie's name is translated to 'Not One Less'. It's a mainland chinese docu-movie, and I only caught the last half hour of it, but it was so good that I want to watch it from the beginning now. It's about a young teacher who goes to teach in rural China and the difficulties she goes through. They're not actors, which makes the movie a documentary, but it's presented in a sort of movie format... I think everyone at school here should watch it and remind ourselves why we came here in the first place.
Gotta get another Discourse assignment done. I think we've only got 3 weeks to go now 'til the end of term... and I think this is only assignment 5 (of 8). If that's the case... I'm going to be screwed in the next couple of weeks...
I've started the ball rolling with my Master's project (thesis). It's going to be part empirical and part theoretical because there haven't been many studies on what I'm looking at. I think it's because people haven't had the galls to look at it yet. I'm being supervised by a professor who's quite well-known for her work in this field, and I'm really excited about it. She's pointed out though, that I have to take care as to how to write up my project though... because it might end up being a little too controversial... yeeha! Just what I want, to be blacklisted by a certain country's government... That's all I can post about my research... it's going to be fun looking at this!
Right... time to clean up my room. It's such a huge mess. I have to do some wardrobe reshuffling... summer may FINALLY be 'round the corner...~
