Studying @ 4am

An hour and a half ago (or whenever I last posted, I forget) it looked like I was never gonna get to my goal, but now that I've skipped 9 exercises in a row, it looks much more doable. Still, it's kinda late. I reckon maybe I'll sleep like 4 hours, and hope that when niisama starts chatting to me tomorrow that I'll be woken up. XD

Who helped me with preparing for my oral presentation/interview on Tuesday! Thanks, dear, you're rather interesting when you're acting. ;) I'll try to speak a bit slower. XD Though sometimes I feel if someone's speaking too slowly that it's kinda patronising. ._. But meh, for understandability's sake! And I'll go test out on mom, who actually has hypercholesterolaemia, though she's not using Zocor.

And a horrifying news article about plastic surgery obsession gone wrong...saw this a few days ago in mX, and it's pretty urgh. Poor girl, really -- she seriously needed psychiatric help, but what she got instead was a doctor who gave her a syringe and silicon...sigh. What I don't really get are some of the tasteless comments on the article. I'm reminded of it when someone posted a video of someone cosplaying as Ranka and singing Triangler (is that the title? No too sure.) -- and the uploader said comments were disabled because of people complaining of lipsyncing (for the record, she wasn't..just the nonkaraoke version of the song accudentally played at the start, which is unfortunate >.>) and general bad stuff, and that he/she 'should have expected as much of youtube'.

When people start saying bad things (i.e. non-constructive comments) I generally ignore them. It seems it's called trolling..? While I don't agree with the 'if you've got nothing good to say, don't say it' approach since I've seen some pretty ._. singers get 'oo it's very nice' comments, I do believe in everything having a good and bad side. But I've learnt not to argue with people who have these (bad) views online...a better example is probably the 'back to the kitchen, woman!' kind of comments. I do believe it's meant as a joke, but some who say it seem to be serious, which is kinda worrying. But meh, no point saying this, I suppose.
