a balanced life? And more hardworking?

I survived last night but I wasnt able to survive today's psych seminar. I was a few minutes late and I was clueless about what my seminar leader was talking about. All the stats, multiple regression, MCOVA (what are all those?) And worse of all, we've got to do all our experiment on SPSS (the most unfriendly stats programme i've ever seen...eeks...) We've got to the discussion part where we have to discuss our proposal for our experiment which is due next mon. I have no clue whatsoever as to what my other group mates are saying. They seem to have decided what to put in which I wasnt aware of. And in the midst of discussion, they were talking about random stuff which I cant engage in (they're all aussies) cos I dont seem to understand what they're talking about. Right... One of them even had the method section written already. What the? And I dont even know what I have to write about the discussion section (I'm supposed to write that).

I can forsee myself having difficulties in this unit. Guess I have to work doubly hard. Nah, triply or a gazillion more times harder.

Was doing on television commercials for my psych unit today(the most interesting tute hw i ever had, just rating commercials on tv; finding out if there are any sex sterotypes in commercials; yes there is... men or men voice-overs always appear in car and bank ads, whereas women are mainly in household products) when i got hooked to "Honey, we're killing the kids". Its something like "the nanny" whereby experts help parents change their kids' lifestyles and improve their relationship with their children.

A few things that were changed in the kids' lifestyle:
Eating breakfast.. apprarently it helps us to remember better and have better concentration
Join a sport... If we do not exercise more than 2 hours a week, our life expectancy will be much shorter
Have enough sleep... A 12 year old boy needs 10 hours of sleep??? seriously? I would love to have that too...

Come to think of it, I havent done the above 3. Am starting to get really worried. Or am I not? Its good.. them working as a family. Their family relationship have defintely improved. Damn, I wanna help those families too... That's why I took up psych.. nonetheless, I wish to be in the show too, so that my lifestyle can be changed too.. Be changed and change too, that's what I hope for myself.

When will I ever do what I like to do? And have what I want? And live according to what life has for me? I may never have the answer. Maybe god will provide. Soon enough, I hope.
