Oops...I did it again!

No...it's not Britney's best known hit but my recent post omissions :P Ha ha...though this time it hasn't been because I've enjoyed myself too much at..Oxford *sigh* can't believe I'm back here again.

What made it worse was the revision for collections we had to do plus the fact that I was *still* distraught over my 2nd place at the AIESEC leadership tournament. However, I think (in the long time since the event!) I have gotten over it so there's no need for several blog posts bemoaning about losing! What helped was when I came across the phrase:

"life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it"

...mmm...wise words as if from the proverbial Chinese wise man himself (or woman I guess!)

Anyhow, also you don't need to write endless posts about work and revision...although I do still have a lot of the former, the latter is done (well, for the collection which went ok - I managed to finish all my essays for once!).

I really do hope this term flies past - last Sunday I went to London to meet 'Jimmy' (the person sorting out our OCEP placement) at his brothers restaurant where I had the joys of delicious food and fantastic company - ah, I love meeting new people! I can already tell that I'm going to have an awesome time with the group that we've got together! Bring on the end of Trinity and bring on China!!

Oops no post for a while!

Yep yep...it's been a while but that's because I've enjoyed being back at home - reading, playing games; hobbies I don't get to indulge in during term time! Too be honest, my 'dossy' period didn't actually last that long because for the first time in my life, I decided to do a little work and not leave it till 3 days before collections (or indeed never!). However, it's not going to last very long...I can see myself going back to play Fire Emblem 2 soon enough! :)

Anyhow, hopefully whatever work I do get done will make up for the appalling lack of notes made during term time where I tackled each essay seemingly the night before the deadline....*shudder* bad times.

Well, since the end of term, I've been up to Leeds to see some old friends (yeah!) and go to a youth conference. Oh yeah, and I went to the House of Lords for some leadership thing - it was kinda just like Oxford to be honest which wasn't *that* much of a plus...ha ha..jokes...maybe. The buildings were pretty old and cool looking...mmm...I'm thinking more and more about potential career choices and if Blue Peter doesn't work out, perhaps life as an MP? Though suppose they're getting a bad rep right now for expenses and whatnot....I feel sorry for Jacqui Smith though....

Oh yeah, some cultural teachings - don't say I never say anything mildly educational :) We've just had one of the 5 main Chinese festivals though this one wasn't particularly 'festive' to be honest. It was grave sweeping day :/ Mmm..nonetheless I still hope that such traditions will be kept up when I grow up...suppose I should learn mandarin properly first!
