double desk bookshelves

another great home decor idea! this time from apartment therapy. it even has diy pdf files for you to download and try out. i'd like to have one of these next time. *hint andrew* (:

anyhoo, was trying desperately to do my pr readings. i also *finally* got my journalism and media law&ethics textbooks. think i looked like a total nerd. with 3 textbooks and a pile of readings - which btw i barely got through. was ploughing through it like quicksand. yea, i know you cant plough through quicksand, you sink right? felt like i was sinking. the readings were just so unbelievably, WRETCHEDLY dense. ): so i started to take photos of my table every hour or so. think the people at gloria jeans thought *i* was dense. ahwells.


found this really great quote tho while reading. its on the blue post-it. but i shall type it out in case its too small. (:

"mud that sticks to the wall of knowledge should be retained. that which falls off is indeed mud and should be discarded. this theory of knowledge accumulation suggests that the more individuals there are throwing different kinds of mud, the more likely is that some of them will throw something that sticks."
-Campbell, Daft & Hulin (1982)

with 2 essays in the thousands word count and a journal (that needs a gazillion readings, press releases and writing exercises) to hand in by next week, i'd better be getting myself some of that "mud that sticks to the wall of knowledge".
