I've been playing chess a lot the past few days. Partly because Mac doesn't have minesweeper or solitaire as one of the wasting-time games. They have chess. So I'm playing. I'm not very good at chess, my strategy consists of beating the other side down with brute force, whereupon I can trap their king in the last 2 lines with a queen/rook and a rook. So it's no surprise that I kept losing when I went to viwawa.
It's still fun to play, even if I keep losing. Just have to tell myself it's ok to lose pieces, as long as you don't lose the really important ones.....like the queen and rooks......

The Queen
Queen’s are the rarest of all types. They are quiet but hold the deepest of convictions regarding the matters of the world. They are frequently activists for their cause, they will do what’s right but not for glory, not for political power. It is why they are the Queen. They are the champions of the oppressed and the downtrodden. They are found in the wake of the aftermath rescuing those in acute distress. They may even fantasize revenge on those who victimize the defenseless. Think of ‘Poetic Justice’ and you’ll have appealed to the Queen.
You can’t lead the Queen if only because they are right in suspecting others motives. You cannot fool this individual even if they are sympathetic. The Queen selects a few for friendship – these are friends that transcend the very word. They promote harmony with their very presence and typically make their surroundings more beautiful by just being there to clean up the mess. Don’t mistake them for extroverts – they are special in their diplomacy. They are ‘doers’ and dreamers. They can only be intimate with a chosen few. They will withdraw suddenly if pressed and this is necessary for them.
The Queen excels with writing and communication. They are often the counselors of home, of public service and the good face of politics for the King. They look at the global perspective and are better at spotting patterns and relations. They think of the future and strive for meaning and purpose.

That's my favourite piece. Yipee!!!!
2 more days till POD submission. Everything is sort of ok.....but I'm worried about the presentation. Trust me to choose a really unconventional thing to do as my fyp instead of a nice safe song -_- I seem to like stressing myself out with my crazy project decisions. Hopefully I'll choose something I want and like to do for the second one......if I survive that long.......
