cherian and hegemony.
Friday night spelled Carl's Jr and Ben & Jerry's with my Ben & Jerry's/Royal Titles/F.R.I.E.N.D.S/ Prison warden names tutorial group. It was really fun, and provided a kind of chill-out from studying. We had Chocolate Fudge Brownie, Oatmeal Cookie Chunk, Dublin Mudslide, Chunky Monkey, Phish Food and New York Super Fudge Chunk. Yum. :)
I have come up with a list of my favourite Ben & Jerry's flavours, in two tiers of four each. It is absolutely impossible to even RANK them. That would be harder than relative velocity, I swear.
So my top four favourite flavours, in one tier, with no particular rank: Chubby Hubby, Dublin Mudslide, Chocolate Fudge Brownie and Oatmeal Cookie Chunk.
The next four in the second tier: New York Super Fudge Chunk, Phish Food, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Fossil Fuel.
I feel strangely ambivalent. Like, a weird concoction of feelings. I don't know, maybe it results from the effects of being up at 3.02am in the morning, and having my body clock totally turned topsy-turvy over the last week. I feel absolutely petulant about studying, like how I do not want to look at another page of Cherian George's "Calibrated coercion and maintenance of hegemony in Singapore", no matter how much I like Cherian George. What IS hegemony anyway?! Is it possible to read through 26 pages of his notes without knowing what it means?
Well, yes. I just did.
And there's this feeling in the pit of my stomach as well. It feels strangely like butterflies, and yet I have no idea why. Maybe it's because I'm listening to old love songs and my heart is all twisted.
Uh huh. Oh, I bought a bag today, pricey but I love it! Got it at a launch party for bags and belts imported from the States. It's all gold and colourful and glittery and lovely. I think I'll just sit here all night and admire it.
Forget Cherian George and hegemony.
