why you so like that?

14/15march: the non-divide.

10:25pm - started making sketches for A1 panels due the next day.

12:30pm- family switches off tv. in the hall, go to bed

2:30am- only me and my music to keep each other alive.

3:30am- amazed i am still drafting and not sleeping and drooling over my work.
start on model making.

4:40am- mum wakes to use the toilet. exclaims, "licia! you still not sleeping? better go and rest. not good for your body you know!" i brush her off by being quite unfriendly because i didnt particularly feel like talking at that time. said its okay, everytime its submission i dont sleep.

5:30am- mum nags at me to sleep again. i am a little irritated because i am rushing like crazy to finish the model (which is taking so long to do) and finish the drafting of the panels at the same time. my body screams sleep but i am silencing the thought of it. and now i hear it audible.

6:45am- i look at the clock. tell myself to finish model by 7am sharp, and get started on my 2nd panel! calculate that i have 3.5 hours before i must get myself to school for a presentation.

7:10am- dad wakes and says, 'you didn't sleep the whole night ah!' gives me cup of water and insists that i finish it at one go. have been cutting and sticking the model together for around three hours, and its still not done.

10:15am- filled up 3/4 of my 2nd panel. legs feel weak and shakey. face looks strange in the mirror. like gray wool. its like that everytime you go without sleep for one night, your skin gets it worst. ( i go to school and can instantly spot those who didnt sleep. they look strange, too. like something about their faces- colour, proportion? i dont get it- is wrong. )

10:37- rushed onto shuttle bus toward school for presentation.

8pm- crit finally ends. i keep dozing off. but its time for dinner and i went with sini, chongji and hazwan to the clementi jap place. then, i never felt more awake. haha.

11pm- slept til 11am the next day. glorious sleep! the deprived come to prodigal awareness.

i must add that the crit went better than i expected :) thank God. i miss kahwee, our past sem tutor. he makes so much sense and isnt boring or naggy or slouchy like you-know-who.
take your place. i need you. i cant last it out.

  2. the entry sound so alike to the time when i was rushing out my project. just that my parents have gotten used to it, so when they wake up, they give me chicken essence and all those nonsense to give me strength! HAHA! but they don't allow me to drink coffee.. say its not good. HAHA. oh well, my parents have also learnt when to not talk to me. HAHA. and don't you find yourself very awake even without sleep especially after submission? hahahaha. and sleeping has never been better? HAHA.

    okok. long long comment specially for you!

    Oh ya, congrats on passing your test, having good crit session and i dont know, for having a great friend like ME! hahahaha!

    Love
