[5:10 PM]
and $15 spent on a new pair of contact lenses yesterday. and another $5 spent on lunch that was not particularly satisfying. so now, the amount has dwindled back to $50. and i still owe mum some 100 bucks. how am i ever gonna be able to shop?...
i woke up this morning with a head so heavy it felt like i had the grand canyon as my brain. the flu is not getting any better. i got into class with head still heavy and on the verge of throwing up, thanks to the cab ride. Joel noticed the terrible eyebags and made fun of them. the anti-gravity eye lift was not working. and Jill was so glad to inform me that i look better when i'm sick. gee, thanks. haha.
lunch. oh yes lunch was not truly satisfying. we decided to give the foodcourt at Wisma Atria a try since according to Joel they have nice food there. but like any other foodcourts the only halal stall would be the Nasi Padang stall and in this case, the Indian food stall as well. and if you haven't realised, Nasi Padang dishes are always the same. chicken, acar, veggies, rendang etc. boring lah. Hokkien mee, wanton mee, chicken rice, Thai food, Japanese food all those other sumptuous food are there but none of them are halal. so the foodcourt at Wisma is not any better than the other foodcourts elsewhere. for me that is. cos i think the other non-halal stalls sell rather good stuff. just watch out for the prices.
Bryan was in such a good mood today because Manchester United beat Chelsea 1-0 in the match this morning. he was as elated as a kid with an ice-cream. but pity, i couldn't share his joy. a certain departure brought sorrow and made the heart long for more. (random sorry)
but kudos to ManU. i used to be quite a fan few years back. but i wasn't really into soccer. not that i am now anyway. but at least i play it more now and heh, i can kick the ball better now, i think. i just can't fancy sports as much as arts. can't blame me. sports genes don't flow well in the family. dad was into dance and mum was into fashion designing. the only thing i don't take after is dad's passion for technical stuff. wiring, electricity, all things related to physics that is. but hey, i did better in physics than chemistry :)
on the way home from town, i sat in the bus and decided to do some serious thinking. i tried to convince myself but then i realised no matter how hard i try, nothing will change cos i'm just too stubborn to budge. so in the end i gave up and surrrendered myself to the joy of slumber. sleep solves everything. or so i thought. it definitely brought me all the way to Sembawang Park since i missed my stop. so i had to wait for the next bus to bring me back to where i was supposed to alight.
i hope i can get well soon enough for tomorrow's practice. and most importantly for the PW Oral Presentation on Wednesday. we are not gonna screw this up guys. thanks for the well wishes Vicks. everything's gonna be fine on Wednesday. God will be with us.
Vicks, i'm still thankful for who you are, not what you are not. so stop deluding yourself into thinking that you are what you aren't. it's for your own good. heh. but i have to admit you looked really good in those corsets. oh well maybe it's just because the photos were kinda blurry. heh. i look damn good in that jacket from Topman okay! i've never thought i would be able to look THAT hot!
I'd wanted to stay, and play the game we always play. But the wind was calling; it howled for me to set you free. So i danced among the stars, and told tales of the monsoon wind. Then i realised, i should have stayed, to play that game we used to play.
