...i promised myself not to succumb to pleasurable indulgence this week (no internet. and ok, a little tv) as i'm thrusting into preliminary hell starting wednesday. it's good that i'll be able to study for 3 days (no classes!) focusing especially on my favorite subject. i really hate it that i can't seem to get a good grade on "A"... i've been flunking it, for heaven's sake! i hope to make up for it, just let me try... :|

(a little inspiration for the wallabies... have a merry midterm week everybody!)

Don't Quit

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest, if you must - but don't you quit

Life is queer with its twists and turns
As everyone of us sometimes learns
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out
Don't give up, though the pace seems slow
You might succeed with another blow

Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt
And you never can tell how close you are
It may be near when it seems so far
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit
It's when things seem worst that YOU MUST NOT QUIT!
