Events over the weekend

There's really nothing much to look forward these days. Mid sem break would be in week 7, which means, 3 more weeks to go. However, I still feel good today. After yesterday's disastrous attempt of getting a PENTEL eraser, everything seems fine today. =)

So, for those who are searching for something forward to, or plain bored this weekend, there's still hope.
