It has been quite a while since the last time I wrote here.
Well in some pretty in vain efforts to prove I'm not that lazy: I do keep two blogs in two languages respectively, and I am, yes, still a physics Ph.D candidate.
A sudden urge to write something today: 'cos it has been a pretty perfect Friday?
Slept in a bit in the morning; was NOT late for my 10:30am class; went to a talk by POTUS's current science advisor (served with free lunch: the purpose of which exceeds the talk itself;-P); got back to office and tried to start working but got distracted by Jcrew's extra 20% off sale, and bought the tuxedo vest (wouldn't it look super cool with a white T+dark wash denim or white shirt+dress pants/pencil skirt + chain necklace?).
Felt I could get no work done if I stayed in my office (the point: in front of my laptop) so walked over to Borders', reviewed my particle physics lecture notes, read LIFE's special book issue on WW2 and the May issue of Lucky, and bought SIX books for $10.93 in total AFTER tax! (LOOOOOOOOOOVE Borders' bargain books, the ones I got today are: Little Women, Phantom of the Opera, Iliad, Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury--this is a collection of some of the best closing arguments from famous trials including cases like the Chicago 7, my most hearted purchase today, a book about modern warfare, and a book about WW2 by RFK's son. I think the focus of my leisure readings this summer would be on warfare esp. WW2, and the secondary focus would be split between law/crime related and classic literature.)
Got home and picked up 2 packages, one is a pair of wedges from Mango's online outlet, the other a silk dress from F21. Okay the F21 dress: I have no idea how it could ever be worn as a dress; I just adjusted the straps to be a bit shorter and they hit right above/at my hips--- a perfect blush-colored layered silk top with thin straps! Imagining pairing it with a white satin belt and light colored wide leg pants when it gets warmer.
And it's back at the office, dinner+watching and trying to finish season6 of The Practice, and hopefully some more readings into particle physics. And then back home to read TIME's special book issue on WW2 and this week's TIME, which comes on Fridays as always:)
(And I know this would be just another crazy weekend filled with work: hopefully I will/won't dream of me sitting on the jury hearing the defense arguing cases in terms of 4-vectors in Minkowski space again...)
I feel I need pants/shorts: maybe I have been wearing dresses toooooooo much?
And great expectations for next week's "alleged" Anthro HUGE SALE? Actually I do not see so much that I really wanna, except maybe for one top and one skirt and one dress and...;-P
Ending with 2 of my favourite quotes of the week: how well do they justify my spendings?
"I like my money where I can see it: hanging in my closet." With it I bought a Free People tuxedo jacket from Bloomies yesterday: come on it was on second markdown 70% off...
"The only way to get rid of a temptation is to yield to it."---Oscar Wilde
So I bought the Jcrew vest today~ ~
See how rational I am? lol~
Have a wonderful weekend.
God bless all.
