exams are round the corner again. so pardon me while i retreat into my shell and appear to treat the world with even more indifference than usual. tired, though. tired of having exams on my mind every single waking minute, like some twisted form of obsession. tired of other things too, of things that i'll have to face once the exams are over and i'll have no excuse to give in order to avoid it. topics like what, you ask? well.. mundane, idle things like mortality, for instance. don't know whether to bury the the topic deep down and try to ignore it, or to face and analyse it rationally and hope that somehow everything and everyone will work out just fine. i'd choose the former, but i'm afraid that if i continue that, one day something will tip the balance and i'd snap. which wouldn't exactly be a good thing, unless u really hate me so.

darn it i'm ranting again.

think i'll stop here, trying v hard not to be a whiner.
