oh, the irony

last time i didn't check bbc for a day or two blunket was ousted from the cabinet. this time i missed the election results and the fact that blunket has made it back into the cabinet in the reshuffle. i really shouldn't stop reading the news. ever. although i must admit it does not interest me much any more given my limited 4 block radius of existence. don't get me wrong, its not that i don't think there are important things going on, it's just that i'm finding it difficult to relate to the pseudo-journalism that gets passed off as "news"...

but after the worst exam i've ever written (i have no idea how we managed to spend a whole semester reading hundreds of cases and still not learn anything) i did venture out of my block for a little while. and decided that i really do like living here... mainly cos ppl are just so nice to me in stores, even when i'm not buying things. the solidarity thing is amazing. i heart nyc.
