Yes

"Men are like diamonds. You have to polish them up and create the right setting before you can really see their true value sometimes."

That was taken out of the book that I'm currently engrossed in: Second Prize, Chris Manby. You can only imagine how thrilled I am to be so free so as to be able to enjoy a novel now. Glee.

But as always, being too free has made me so lazy that even though I'm bored to death at home with only the few things to entertain me (tv, computer and novels) and with absolutely no one to talk to now that my parents are away again (not that I'm eager for my mum to strike a conversation with me), I keep procrastinating the essential trip to the hairdresser's. And I'm still contemplating whether or not I should turn up for the absolutely redundant service learning thing that all student teachers have to do. Currently, it's 70-30. Knowing me, you should know which is which. :P

I can see how a stunning woman turns into 'huang lian po' once she's detached from the society. For once, being a housewife doesn't seem so appealing after all.



Polishing and creating the right setting.
