Space Out

I realise that when my head hurts, especially after a long day, it's only on the left side. So I told Rui Qi about it and she formulated that maybe it's because I talk a lot HAHA! Which is true since your left brain governs language comprehension and production.

Language = a tool for communication.
Communication = mostly verbal
.
Hence, chatter.

I finally got my new passport! The most ironic thing today was that I had the most peaceful lunch during the busy lunchtime hour at Raffles Hospital while waiting for my passport to be "made". Just me and my meal. While I was 100 percent-ly enjoying my ban mian, thoughts, yet again, were racing in my head. Not those confusing, energy-sucking, miserable ones. But just general restrospection. While I sat there enjoying my meal, I was thinking about how adult I actually feel. Well 20 years, guess I am an emerging adult. I've learnt not to depend on people so much. Although I confidently declare that I love the company of people, I do, I crave for good company with my loved ones, new friends, anyone all the time and evidently, I live to socialize. But I've come to terms that as I grow older, it's impossible to be doing everything with someone else. Certainly I am talking about life, excluding soulmates (cos I believe in this one). But separate from that, we should live like we are all going our own way. You can feel a sense of liberalism and you feel free. It's as if you're tied down with nothing.

I love the times when I feel absolutely sleepy, but not yet close to sleeping, right in the bus with music plugged in the ears. It's as if I entered another realm, and I just drift away.

Oh and speaking of which, the word that sums up this semester (like as if it has ended already but anyway) is "sleepy". I just doze whenever I feel like it. I don't mean in lectures, but at home. If your definition of self-discipline involves the strong resistance to sleepiness, then I totally fail in this category this semester. I just sleep as and when I like. Although this satisfies me but I reckon that I can do so much more without sleeping sufficiently. And the time to not sleep is now.
I MUST NOT SLEEP NOW.

You know what really sucks? The fact that I'm having this test, this coming Wednesday, right before the recess week, on the last week of school with the whole book being tested. Argh.

God, please don't let me die. Especially when it hasn't started.

Back to basics

Once again the heavy downpour. Certainly the rhythmic sound of the rain, slapping against the floor, against the windows, have conjured images in our heads of the pleasant idea of sleeping, or reading with hot cocoa (but of course this wouldn't be possible due to fasting), or just snuggling up in bed. How nice. But here I am almost dressed and ready for school. I don't know why, but it has been quite some time since I felt like I've been in school, like proper school. Perhaps it's the three days mc I've got. But now, I feel like I'm energized despite fasting, all set and ready for school. The scent of cooking porridge and spaghetti made me all excited to get through 2 lectures, one meeting and a bus ride home back welcomed by the sumptuous breaking fast meal although I'd only be back by eight-ish. Today shall be the first in a long time I'd make an appearance in French class. It's been more than a week. Wish me luck that my temperature won't rise...

Coincidence helps you in some way

There's this guy who happens to be in the same stats and developmental psych tutorial as me, and we knew each other through those classes. So after our class yesterday, we happened to board the same bus, happened to go to the same place, and happened to need to deposit money as well. I brought half of my wad of notes from money I collected from Hari Raya and the money I received from tuition too. Anyway, thankfully for the guy, he told me that the machine does not accept 5-dollar, and 2-dollar notes and MAJORITY of the thick wad of notes I brought were. Can you imagine how stupid I would look if I were to put the whole wad of notes there and they would all be rejected? And I had FORGOTTEN about it, so dumb please. You know, families should give you $10 notes instead of $2s (HAHA). So geez, I only managed to bank in abit only. After everything, the guy had to go for his taekwondo classes and I'm meeting Qeen, AND after spoken about exams, exchange programmes, past schools, bad ...
