I was sleepy, and bored, and sleepy.
Anyway, school's been keeping me really busy these days; ever since the holidays ended. I feel the need to rest, but do not have the time to. Just 7 more weeks, I'll hang in there.

I sighted the moon today when I was looking out of my study's window at 6:15PM SGT UTC+08. It was an unusual sight, to me at least. Taken with my 18-135mm lens, which created the vignetting effect in the picture!
