Off balance

Have you ever experienced a period in your life whereby everything just feels so off balance? You've always been a tea person and never depended on coffee for energy. And then all of a sudden you depend on caffeine alot more lately and then suffer from the aftermath jitters. You advocated against instant noodles but you find yourself succumbing and eating them alot more often lately. You feel further away from God and you procrastinate prayers. All you want to do when you return home is to sleep because you are just so so exhausted. You turn on your favourite sheikh on YouTube and don't get the same spiritual high. You fall sick ever so often and you forgot what is fun anymore. People are asking why you have been looking so sick and tired. People are asking are you okay? When you said yes you're just tired they don't believe you. But that's because you really are lethargic. You are more than lethargic. You are in a stupor. You feel that you need at least a week of slumber to fix this. Thankfully you see these signs and you slowly want to pull yourself up again.

So number 1) Detoxify
Number 2) Keep praying
Number 3) Run and cycle to keep the physical energy up.

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 ...
