I'm typing to you from the Rockefeller Library at 1AM thursday night/friday morning. I'm working on a research paper for my project seminar on water and architecture. and mind you, when i say i'm "working on" a paper or anything for that matter, odds are i haven't started it. oh lordy, i just wish this paper could write itself and somehow culminate in a literary finesse worthy of the department's prize at the end of the term. ok, i'll shut up.

seriously though, the more i'm reading about it, the more amazed i am at singapore's urban design and water management. how in the whole wide world could a city, 700 km.sq., with almost no natural resources be so self-sustaining economically, physically, ecologically, and etc. well, they're more than self-sustaining. they're pretty prosperous.

ok, a little note-to-self so i'm aware that i have so much shit to take care of.

what needs to be done (by due dates)

• 12-15 pages on water and urban design in singapore (the progress of which is zero.)
• European history take-home (mad loooong and not started. plus i didn't go to any of the lectures after spring break.)
• 10 pages on "architectural sculpture of ancient greece and rome" What? (needs major editing. i'm an art history major not classics!)
  
• Final: 19th-century european painting (the prof has yet to post the exam study-guide.)

Ok, back to singapore.
