“You’re all I ever wanted.”
You. Yes you.
Would you mind giving me just an hour of your time?
Come the 28th of October, daylight savings begins (or ends I’m never sure which) in the remaining parts of Australia and all clocks will move forward an hour. This means I will lose 1 entire hour of study when I am closest to my finals.
1 hour is a lot – for example, my dad taught me how to tie a tie in an hour. One hour is how long it took for me to figure out how to work the Listerine childproof cap on my bottle of mouthwash. One hour is how long it takes for me to negotiate with my alarm clock in the morning. One hour (and a very skinned knee later) is how long it took for me to realise I may never learn to ride a bike again. Then again they say you never forget, but that’s another story for another time.
One hour – you can do a lot in that time. And especially when I will be fighting constantly with time to memorise which genes are involved in Huntington’s Disease or the immunopathology of parasitism – one hour is something I will sorely need.
So, maybe I should quit writing this post and go get a head start.
Meanwhile, consider donating to Felicia’s Fight The Time Fund.
Even if ten people donates 6 minutes, I will have one hour.
Thank you for your kind generosity.
Selamat Hari Raya, Maaf Zahir dan Batin to all my Muslim friends. Every donation gets you a free erm, pulut
that’s why it’s childproof… hehe…

Okay I grant you that. But are you gonna donate or not?

i don’t get it…are u making FALSE PROMISES? do you actually HAVE pulut with u right now? coz i want my damn pulut if i’m donating 6 minutes to you….(normally i’d give u my time in exchange for nuthin’, but see, i need it more than u do coz my exams r frickin’ earlier, so there):P
Marlene, THANKS
I’ll see what I can do about the rendang 
Will contact my people.
James, thank you but why only 3 mins? What do you plan to do with the remaining 3
Hmm, donate only sounds like donuts because it shares the first three letters I guess, kinda like Donatello, donor, donkey, donde es ta bano (where is the toilet in spanish) 
.. So something tells me you’re craving DONuts 
Uls, okay okay you got me, I don’t have pulut with me per say, BUT, since you start exams earlier and I end later… I’ll belanja you a Cibo gelati how’s that
