Over Nothing

Yesterday, I found myself very stressed out over school work. I felt the exact same feelings as last semester. It was very discouraging, and all I wanted to do was to just die ad forget about everything.

Then I realised that I'd been feeling lousy over practically nothing. There had been no need, and there never will be need for it. In the end, I just sorta looked at myself in the mirror and snickered for being such a panicky rat. It's all dumb and silly. But then I thought it was kinda cute too. And from then on, everything just turned for the better.

This morning, and I mean really early in the morning around 5.50 am, I was awakened by the heavy downpour. I was ecstatic yet irritated cos I had been unwillingly dragged out of dreamland to shut the windows. But when I plooped down on the bed later, I smiled and it saw me falling back into sweet slumber.

Until the frickin' alarm went off at 7 a.m. Luckily I was sane enough not to smash it against the wall. Instead, I pushed the alarm back by an hour. Class starts at 10 a.m, but the 7 a.m. had been for running which I decided to skip anyhow. It's really surprising how I fell asleep very easily again. It felt like minutes later that the 8 a.m. alarm rang. I was still feeling really sleepy and to please myself, I decided to shut the alarm completely and let my body clock do the waking-me-up thing.

When I finally found the right moment to wake up, it was 10 something a.m. At least I felt like million bucks!

So for the first time in a long time, I found myself having plenty of time to savour my breakfast, which I took at a very leisurely pace, and again, felt like a million bucks.

A while ago, I was having steamboat dinner at Marina Bay. When I arrived, I could hear my insides screaming for a boost of food. I unconsciously skipped lunch. I cannot remember why, but I just don't recall having any lunch today. Anyways, despite the fact that I was famished, I was pretty much done after an hour and 30 minutes of gorging. I was the first to bail out from the eat-all-you-can programme. Then my friend said that she was disappointed in me. Haha!...

Tomorrow and Sunday, I'll be at Kallang Sea Sports Club doing my Kayaking Star One course. Yay!!! My long awaited task is finally here. I'm so happy!
