Third post. And counting

Today is the THIRD POST of the day for me, largely because the Spawn of Satan (i.e. CFA) is back to haunt me down and taunt me and drown me in guilt for all the non-studying that I have been painstakingly doing thus far.

Generally it just boils down to an issue of Concentration (of which I have none). To illustrate:

Things I Have Thought About Today While Attempting to Concentrate on CFA

1. Apple iPhone, and how cool it would be to own one, but thought was abruptly cut short by rude realization that balance in my bank account would only fund h 0.26 of an iPhone (at published rates) which is sort of an obstacle to actually purchasing one, or at least a working version. Was tempted to purchase from eBay the iPhone cutout, which is a cardboard folding model of the iPhone that you can buy, print and fold into an iPhone, which I thought was actually very cool.

Time wasted = 43 minutes (checking out iPhone review on Cnet Asia, downloading iPhone advertisement, googling iPhone updates, contemplating bidding for cardboard iPhone)

2. Kurt Vonnegut. Felt sad that he wasn't around anymore, so mucked around the internet a bit. Was pleased to find a 10 min interview with him on audible.com, downloaded it and listened a couple of times. Got teary when I heard him talk about Slaughterhouse Five, and Dresden...

Time wasted = 27 minutes

3. New swimming suit. Thought about how I really need a new swimming suit because it is no longer acceptable to share swimming suit with mom given age and level of maturity attained by turning 25 last year. Also mom's swimming suit looks like its been trampled on by a large herd of disgruntled elephants, and the bra pad is badly mis shappened from years of use, making me look like I have stuffed cauliflowers down my chest (not attractive). Also mom has bigger boobs than self, making swimsuit very loose in chest region, which is bad because it is; a) too airy and; b) bad for my ego.

Time wasted = 10 minutes

4. Chan Kong Choy. Have been adamant that he was a sleazy bastard, and ranked very low on the shaggability index. However, having met him briefly, am now forced to reconsider. Thin scary moustache is still completely unnecessary and disgusting, but otherwise, overall personality exudes certain, what can only be described as 'Man-ness' and therefore may after all be shaggable. Searched online a bit to find pictures of him from different angles, but pictures largely make him look very fat and gross so gave up.

Time wasted = 4.5 minutes

5. Blogging about how I couldn't concentrate and was wasting time doing all sorts of other rubbish than productive work.

Time wasted = 28 minutes


TOTAL TIME WASTED = Alot

Please shoot me.

Thanks
