I was having a good day till 5 minutes ago....

I got my new hard drive ( a replacement for the 1 tb unit that bit the dust last week), green laser, osciilosope and such today so i suppose it was a good day. The green laser is almost too much fun, and the oscilloscope is likely to be useful for messing around.

Apparently clips of a tamil movie called endiran have been floating around the interwebs and my dad has a copy.Spent oh, about 5 minutes trying to rip it in handbrake (which fails for some odd reason) before giving up, since i needed to feed my dog. Mentioned it failed to mom, went to wash my hands... and... i walk back into a detribe about how i shouldn't be wasteing time on such things.

I've woken up early to get assignments done. I'm so goddamned tired from school and the state mandated fitness programme i have 2 or 3 weeks of left. I'd just like to occationally mention things i do in what little spare time i have without being harangued about distinctions in subjects i frankly find annoying, when all i need to do is pass.

and of course, when i complained that i've been working my butt off, she brings up the money spent on my abortive degree attempt in the UK. ALWAYS THAT. Yeah, its money, and not an insignificant amount, but really, is it so much to make my life hell over? I'm already denied the chance to do so many things i love cause 'it costs money' (which is frankly BS. I wouldn't spend over my allowance), and every time i think they are unreasonable, mom throws it in my face.

I get it. Getting back for that is more important than me being happy.
