=(

ok. after a time-out, several hours of computer games and a good book (which is so rare nowadays), i think i have managed to lock it away and throw away the key. i certainly hope it doesnt come back. not while i am not really to deal with it yet, but in the end i will need to come back to this harsh reality.

oh my. at least i fulfilled my goal of being a nice enough host to the Vietnamese guy i was attached to. but i wasnt friendly enough to know the others though. well at least the science conference entertained him for me for a while, if not, at that point in time, i wouldnt know how to face him. haha.

but i abandoned them later at stAJe dinner though. =(
