Ah, the days. They seem to get longer and longer, even though the sun is only out for like 10 hours at a time. I'm resuming old habits, like sleeping away the day and staying up late, watching terrible movies.
I defended my thesis a few weeks ago; it was awful, but it actually got worse after the defense as i waited to see what my grade was. Two weeks passed before i finally found out that i got an A-. Turns out that the day after my defense, a flash flood ripped through my campus, destroying the library and wreaking havoc on computer systems. So i guess it took them a while before they remembered to give me a grade.
Of course i had to celebrate after the defense, so the past few weeks involved lots of drinking and coming home at dawn. But now even that has gotten sort of boring and repetitive. I'm tired of going to the same bars and seeing the same people every weekend! Oh well, the truth is the more i drink at any club the more fun it becomes, so i think that's the key. After all, it's definately not the awful house music and nonexistant hookup opportunities that keep me going out. Oh no, my friends, it's all about the beer.
And that's my life. Well, that and dreaming of the days that i will have a job and disposible income. This is not to say that i am actually *looking* for said job, i guess i'm still clinging to the hope that it will just fall from the sky into my lap.
God, this is so long and boring . . . time for some random observations:
Pretty Hate Machine is a really underrated cd! Nevermind how old it is, that shit resonates.
There are a lot of "adult shops" sprinkled around Beijing, I wonder how many women here actually own sex toys? People here are so buttoned up about sex; maybe i should do an informal survey.

Beijing is ridiculously boring right now, i guess because school's out and i have too much free time. But i'm going snowboarding this weekend, that should be interesting since i've never been before...
