i got scolded by my mom for saying that my brother was camwhoring. the words just came out of my mouth so naturally, having said it so many times with friends already. it only hit me afterwards that camwhore is a portmanteau of camera and whore, the latter of which is actually quite an offensive word once you think about it. it's interesting to note that such a derogatory term can be adapted into a term that is used by the modern generation as a form of friendly teasing and, when used by the camera fanatics themselves, even carries a hint of belonging (and pride? i wouldn't know, i'm a proud anti-camwhore). i just find it interesting.
so now we're into week 3 of the june holidays, and i'm not even halfway through my revision yet. i think i'm royally screwed if i keep this pace. honestly, i'm starting to feel a bit panicky, but is it too late to change anything now? i dunno, hopefully the situation can still be salvaged. and if teachers come looking for me just for not handing up homework, i imagine many talks with many teachers if i screw up the CTs. argh dammit.
this is the ending credits song for Portal. it's awesome because it's the ultimate in passive aggression :D and also it's been stuck in my head for days:
