torture!

time to tell you about my redletter day last week.abit belated but nvm. i happily trooped up bus 96 on my way to school, prim proper smelling nice and fresh. and i dropped my new pen, and it rolled under the bus. [aiyah, nvm. it was a free gift from the Navy i think.] so i ignored it and walked up the bus like nobody saw nothing. but when i got off the bus i looked back n saw my tutor standing near the front of the bus. so i pretended i didnt see him and rushed off to class!

i ran towards the lift, and guess what? the lift was under maintenance. so i climbed up four flights of stairs to my puny tutorial room, thinking i was late. i was! but guess what? the tutor was later than i was. and that technically makes me early. and i got a phone call from hazwan reminding me that i needed to submit my dratty sketching class sketches. so i trooped my way down the stairs to submit and marched up for Building tutorial again. and this time i was late. darn it. why do i troop here and there! sound so military. okay i glide. no. that's ghostly. i ...leap. YEAH RIGHT. whatever.

trot. okay enough. anyhow. then after my bu tutorial i went for usp class, which was normal and normal means intriguing for dr don's classes. :D and i went to the IRC which is like the archi library which is very resourceful and well-stacked, but kinda retarded cos they only lend books out for 2 hours and the photocopy machines are always jampacked with people. so.. i waited and waited to photocopy books for my ideas essay.. and finally FINALLY! i was done with that. so i, once again, happily trooped out with the books. DIDIDIDIDI! yes, happily, until i realised i was holding the books in my arms after the borrowing time had closed. and i carried it outta the library and the bloody sensors which no one ever believes works just rang away. and the books are the uber heavy bulky old and impossible to hide kind. omg. like i will steal books in such a blatant way. i mean, like i will steal books!! this girl at the entry sensors threw me a dirty look. so embarassing. i told the librarian i forgot to return the books (sounds like such a lame excuse but it is HONEST. honestly stupid.)

so what did i do today? public holiday. i slept it away. i amaze myself by my capacity for sleep. oh you know you know, dr don told us that keeping a person awake without sleep is one of the most ingenious torture methods? like whenever a person nods off, knock him awake. do that for 5 days and the person loses his sanity. and also, if a person is placed in a TOTAL pitch dark black room (and we seldom are. even when the lights are off. especially in singapore with all the streetlights or carlights or lift lights or night lights and building lights or neighbour-just-one-meter-opposite-you lights). yes put him in a dark room, make him stand still and not be able to touch or feel any surface, just TWENTY minutes and he will start hallucinating like crap. cos we're all sensorial creatures. sensual creatures. without the use of our senses our mind loses it. scary cool stuff huh! yeah. see?? This is why USP isn't nonsense. Lesson #122: never get yourself stuck in a black room.

it's scary how many aki dreams i have. i know i had loads of dreams last night. i cant stand dreaming sometimes. i wake up more tired than i will be if i had a dreamless sleep. and my dreams are seldom pleasant. most of the time i just forget my dreams though. i remember them in the morning and if i dont write them down they just float away, intangible and forgotten.

you know those people who keep telling you: "finish your food. THINK of the starving children in Africa!" ? don't believe them. finishing your food isn't gonna help them one bit, and the purpose of eating is for sustenance. so when you're full, you're full. you stop. (or if the food is gooyukcy.) THINK of the people in America! or Singapore, for that matter. whoever says Overeating is not as bad as undereating? okay. dunno why i suddenly wrote that. food for thought! :)
