Without You I'm Nothing (Placebo)

Here I am in my dinning room surfing around the Internet and suddenly my Windows Media Player starts to play Without You I'm Nothing by Placebo. Which starts:

Strange infatuation seems to grace the evening tide
I'll take it by your side
(...)
And my first thought was really it is a strange infatuation... I'll not dwell on this, but at the moment I really have a strange infatuation... I really need to get a life...

For the complete lyrics go here.

This music brings so many memories, some good some not so good, but all contributed to my development as a person. It's strange to associate this music with current events.

Life...

I've been completely absent from this blog...

My life has been more or the less the same for these past few months, a struggle to write my thesis, but if before it was painful but in the end I was able to write... now it doesn't hurt has much, but I'm completely unable to write... sad isn't it... :(
If it wasn't for my pride I think I would have given up already... (and that's really sad)

Besides the thesis what I've been up to?!

Well, I went to spend some days at my Dad's place, to bond a little with him and my baby brother. :D It was a pleasant time, my baby brother is growing very well and I'm a proud sister :D (but I have to add that I'm a proud sister to all my siblings :D).

Other than that, I've been listening to a lot of Japanese music, especially Miyavi. :)

And I've been using my new found interest in Japanese music has a way to escape from my thesis work. I've been so good at it that I've been almost completely unaware of what's going on the world and in my home country (bad girl). So today I decided to scan through the news, and sometimes I think it's better to be unaware, because so sad events happen. I'm not talking about the Natural Disasters, has pain that they might be, there's not much us Humans can do about them, except try to warn everybody has soon has possible. I'm talking about the wars that occur throughout the planet and the crimes against innocent people.

Why do we insist on wounding Mankind continuously?

In the end, We all are gonna be responsible for our own downfall... And We still call ourselves the rational species and the superior species...

Thesis (once more...)

So haven't talked about my thesis (or anything else for that matter) for a while...

A quick update: I've finished writing everything!! It should be a good sign, no?! No!! Even though my supervisor complained in June (26th, I think) that I wasn't writing has fast has she wanted and that she wanted everything ready be the end of July. She completely ignored all the complete chapters that I send her through out the month of July. I had all the chapters written by the end of July!! But she got stuck on the second (of six) chapters and didn't bother to call me and ask me to go talk with her.

In the end, I went to Porto in the 1st or 2nd of August, after a series of insults (for me were insults) and after she had read the remaining 4 chapters overnight. And, of course, the work sucked and everything has to be re-written. But in the end the only thing that she wants is to me to copy what she has already written without having to explain anything... She doesn't want to teach, she wants work slaves...
