* Am currently Internet-less at home (damn you Bell!), so am stuck sneaking online time at work. Eh. ETA: Bell is merciful today! I has Internetz for now, whohoo!

* Haven't done much since I finished exams, mostly just work and sleep. Am working six days this week (though three are half-days), so yay! Moolah!

* I've been battling (and winning!) a sore throat, runny nose and headaches since Friday. But after ingesting cold pills, raw garlic, ginseng tea and a whole bag of Chinese isatis root beverage (aka banlangen), I'm proud to say that I have now sniffle-free!

* So Merlin has wrapped up its highly inconsistent second season (let's hope that the writers are smoking better crack for next year...) (Never mind, there's still one more Merlin episode left!) Glee is on hiatus until April, White Collar (okay, I still watch it for the lolz and the pretties) doesn't pick up again until January 19 and even my Monday-night guilty pleasure Gossip Girl doesn't show until March. Ugh, what a television stump. All I have left to look forward in the next month is to watch Russell T. Davies slowly kill off Ten on Doctor Who.

* Speaking of Merlin, look at what I made wherethewind do. Muahahahahahah.

* I've been continuously craving chocolate lately. We have these chocolate bars that we're selling for a handicapped children foundation at 2$ apiece and goddamn, I am SO TEMPTED by the almond ones. Droooool.

* Two exams down, two more to go. Got steamrolled by the business law final today (not helped by the fact that I needed to pee for the last, say, 90 minutes or so). Got home, took a "nap" from 4 to 8pm...and yet my brain still refuses to study for Monday's exam on succession law. ~flails~

* My cold seems to be manifesting itself mainly throughout headaches, drowsiness and dehydration. The meds are helping with the first two, but dehydration? Ugh, what a hassle. Eyedrops, water bottles, lotions, hand creams...I've got the whole nine yards packed onto my desk.

* On a happier note, we put up our Christmas decorations today! Our (synthetic) Christmas tree seems to get smaller every year, I have no idea why. We also installed this nice tinsel-and-coloured-lights thing on our staircase banister. Yay, pretty blinking lights!

* World Cup group draws today! It's kind of convenient how most of the front-runners are in different groups. Looking forward to England-USA (group C) and Brazil-Portugal (group G).

* I need to stop listening to so much Lady Gaga. First "Bad Romance" (OMG, get out of my head!), then "Telephone" (stupid catchy melody) and now...Speechless. ~facepalm~

* Note to self: remember to buy tights&hosiery, headbands, baby wipes and more hand cream.
