1) It's been strange this past week. Haha. Slept on the floor for the two nights before competition. Then screwed up competition for the second consecutive time. Which made me cry for the first time in public this year. Then slept like crazy over the next three days. I slept at 8 on Thursday. Then 9 on Friday waking up at 9 plus. Then ten on Saturday waking up at 9. And the most strange thing of all? I didn't even sleep last night. Crazy right? haha. No, it wasn't because I didn't try to. I. Just. Couldn't. Which totally pisses me off. If there is one thing I hate, it's lack of sleep. Went to bed at 12. I laid there for one hour. Then started realizing I wasn't drifting off to sleep the way I usually do. So I waited. Then checked my phone. It was 2am. I tried to stay still in one spot. Read that in order to drop off to sleep, body temperature must first be lowered. So, I tried to keep my breathing even. 3am. For some strange reason, my heart was beating faster. Like I was afraid of something. I didn't know what. Realized it was the ghost hour. Kept tossing around. 4am. Counted sheeps doing somersaults, double somersaults and twists. I felt so awake and alert. My eyes weren't even drooping over. Was even considering revising mentally over the contents and the outline of the econs essay later in the morning. 5am. Gave up on trying to get to sleep. Just thought about the day lying ahead as I waited for the alarm to ring at 5.45am. The most absurd thing of all the absurd things so far was that for the whole of today, I wasn't even sleepy or tired at all. In fact, I felt more awake than I usually do even on days when I've slept well the night before. It was like I'd had such a restful sleep the like of I've never had before. A-ma-zing... I have two hypothesis regarding this strangest of phenomenoms. One: I had slept too much in the past three days. Two: I had two cups of milk tea during the day. Well, one thing's for sure, and that it is the FIRST TIME, I repeat, the FIRST TIME, I've ever not slept the night before school. IN FACT, IT IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE NOT SLEPT BEFORE. Whoohooo! One milestone crossed over for me! haha, and no, on the contrary, I don't consider this a good thing...
2) Okay, shall do homework, eat, then do homework then sleep. HOPEFULLY, I'll be able to sleep tonight! Keeping my fingers crossed...
3) The events of the past week have deeply disturbed me. Hope I get over it soon. :) Haha, though now that I think of it, I most probably will not. I havn't even gotten over last year's screwup. :(
4) My wishlist for this year? a) Make real good friends that I can trust. :D So far, I know I'm on the way there. :D:D:D b) Uh, okay, that's all I can think of for now. hehe.
5) Yay, my cousin unwittingly answered my silent prayers and bought me a school bag! Whoohoo! And we watched Gran Torino on Saturday, which was a really good and touching movie. :D:D:D. Okay, gotta go do homework now. Cya all 'taters!
