quick quick slow... quick quick slow... 1-2-3... 4-5-6...

that's how we learn to salsa~~ was the follower at the first hour... became the leader at the 2nd hour... and some gals are taller than me~~ it was bit difficult for both when the follower do turns.. but it was alrite.. we're just having fun~~ it's been a while since i took social dance lessons... i still remember those crazy days with a "sakai" (crazy) friend of mine... we'll be laughing while dancing... creating new steps with stupid actions.. :P but it was fun~~ miss those days..

later on, i attended the Dilla Days with a few friends. i tried the rockwall.. but could only climb a third of it.. arms were shaking.. can't hold myself up.. it is so much harder than the rock climbing trip~ felt down that i couldn't make it to the top and ring the bell.. oh well... will try it next time.. hope i can make it then... was resting until another friend came and we played volleyball... i suck big time.. am so tired now... just hope that my body won't ache too much tomorrow~~ i've got loads of assignments to do~~ ARGH~~

oh wells... it's nice to be active... would need some good company too~ hehe.. hope i'll find someone...

there are variables that we can control in experiments. controling variables enable us to examine whether the factor does have an effect on the dependent variable ( a behavior or an area of interest of the researcher). in psychology, there will never be a sole variable that causes certain effect. there will always be error variability. this is due to individual difference. or any other factors that might have an indirect effect on the dependent variable.

i have tried to analyse my own emotions, thoughts and personality. i have not yet come to a convincing conclusion. i have blues out of the blues. i am hyped just for the high. i have tried to control certain factors like my rumination, my negativisim. confounding variables such as hormones are a pain. i cannot control it and i could only fight with it mentally. i'm really frustrated sometimes. do u think self control pills will be a good seller?

since young, many has commented that my elder sis and i are identical twins... which wasn't a big deal... but as i grew up, i found it annoying sometimes... "we look different~~ we don't look alike at all~~".. that's what i wanted to shout back...

guess the issue is that i don't want to be like my sis... so we took piano lessons, dance lessons and were in the band... that doesn't mean i'm like her~~~ people don't say to her that she's like me... coz she's older... so it must be the younger sista looking up to the older one... ish~~ what nonsense~~ to me... i wanted to just be myself and not compared to anyone... but comparison is one thing that humans like to do... i do it sometimes.. ok, most of the time..

my point is... comparison made me lose sense of self... and i sometimes choose to discard few qualities that i think my sista had.. most importantly, i lost my confidence..

phew~~ had 3 tests today... advance statistic, spanish and history of psychology...

stats was fine... just hope i choose the correct test..

spanish was a killer... the lecturer cheated us~~ she said that it's basic level and we should be fine... but NOO~~ it was quite tough okie??? was having breathing difficulty while doing it~~

history of psyc... it was done in groups of three and open book... so it's not that bad.. but still i have wishful thinking of not getting low marks...

can't have a breather yet.. as i have a resume, a cover letter and one proposal to turn in... when can i breath normally??
