This morning I couldn't really get to sleep. I was on SMS with someone until close to 4a.m. then she's finally tired and decided to go and sleep, but I still couldn't get to sleep. I only managed to doze off around 5a.m.
After that, a miracle happened. For the 1st time, after I had gotten the Nokia E75, I was woken up by its alarm at 6.30a.m. First time ever! HaHa.. I don't know why but I felt super refreshed. However, as supposed the super bad habit of mine, I lazed on the bed till 6.45a.m. before I decided to get out of it. HaHa..
I took my time to wash up and dress up and managed to leave house at around 7.10a.m. When I reached the busstop, I happened to just missed the bus I wanted to take and it was pretty packed. So, having no choice I waited, but less than 5mins later, a double decker came and it was pretty empty. HaHa.. Lucky me.
Around 20mins later, I reached Bedok interchange. I don't know why, but I had the urge to eat breakfast today. Something that I normally wouldn't do. The best part was, I ate at the food centre instead of 打包-ing to office and eat.
After a satisfying breakfast, I went to take the bus to head for office. I know the journey is going to be long and I was prepared to sleep on the bus, since I did not have much rest the night before and I had a satisfied meal. But, who knows?! I couldn't sleep at all. Not even a tiny bit of feeling to sleep. So, I arrived at office with only a maximum 2 hours of rest. HaHa..
Naturally, due to the breakfast, I was late for work. I arrived at office around 9.30a.m. When I arrived at office, I realised it's still pretty quiet and amazingly, I was one of the few "early" birds. HaHa.. Lucky me again. I don't know why but I kept having this very happy, relaxed and soothing feeling through out the morning. What happened to the "Monday blues"? It's no where in sight. HaHa..
At the same time, I don't know where the hell did I find the motivation, I finished all the work that Im supposed to finish for today by noon. I, myself, was pretty amazed. I did not even go for lunch just to quickly finish my work. I didn't have the feeling of having lunch anyway.
Soon after I finished my work, KB called. He was about to go home from camp. So coincidental, therefore I requested to hitch a ride home. Initially, I had some other plans. I had plans to go surprise someone. But since KB already on his way, I gave up that plan. Anyway, if I were to execute that plan, I wouldn't be able to carry out what I had plan to do for today, that's go swimming.
KB was suspposed to be resting at home because he's on MC, but he had to clear some work, thus he had to return to camp despite being on MC. Poor him. When I got on the vehicle, I could clearly smell the "contaminated" air. I don't know if I was being paranoid or what (I'm pretty sure I wasn't). The air inside his car gives me then same feeling when I was sick. Must be some pretty Jia Lat germs. Hopefully my body is strong enough to resist it. HaHa.. Take care man, Brother.
So after KB drove me back, we had lunch together and respectively, we went back home. We then went online to play DotA together with Doc. We played 3 matches and we lost all 3. HaHa.. Was pretty frustrated with our team mates. But then again, it's just a game and by now I should be pretty used to it already. LoL..
After the 3rd game, it was around 7.30p.m. already. So I told KB I had to stop as I want to go for my swimming. I finally went to apply for the TP Alumni the other day so I can go use their pool, rather than having to wait for KB to bring us to the sports club. So I cycled there.
As far as I can remember, I don't remember TP's pool was so crowded before, unless there's CCA going on, but today, there were lotsa and lotsa of people. There's a whole bunch of people playing pool "Captain's Ball" in the shallow pool. Good thing I still have some space for me to swim. HaHa.. I made myself do 20 laps and some of which I managed to do "front crawl" all the way. "Front crawl" is commonly thought as "freestyle". It was taught to me during OCS days that the proper name is "front crawl". It is commonly used in the "freestyle" event because it's the fastest stroke around, and after a long time, people just call it "freestyle". So remember, the proper name is "front crawl" ok? HaHa.. The reason that I mentioned "front crawl" is because it's a stroke that I'm not very confident in. However, Im slowly getting the hang of it. I hope that one day I will be pretty proficient in it.
Doing the 20 laps was easy. I find it very weird that now I don't the static exercise. But, it will be weirder if I were to do it at the pool. I'm very certain that all the eyes will be looking and their mind will be thinking,"What the hell is this guy doing?" I didn't want to create unnecessary attention. HaHa.. After the swim, I don't know why, I suddenly start taking pictures. HaHa..
That's me after the swim. You may not see what's wrong until you see the next picture.
Both my eyes were blood red. HaHa.. I have totally no idea what happened. Then on my way back, I passed by the Caltex petrol kiosk, inside, they sell one of my favourite snack. So I decided to skip my dinner and go buy the snacks instead. Here's what it is..
I bought 2 curry'O and 2 mushroom'O. Yummy.. HaHa.. I guess all the effort spent swimming is gonna go down the drain. After I gotten my snacks, I don't know why I had this very strange relaxed and soothing feeling again. It seems like this is the kind of life I want to lead for now. It seems very... very... fulfiled? I don't know. But I definately like this feeling. =)
When I reached home, I saw something very, very horrible. Here's what it is,
The poor gecko was squashed in between the windows of the living room. It was still alive when I saw it, as I saw it gulping. So I thought I should quickly go open the window to free it. But who knows, after I opened the window, it is still stuck there! SiGh! Such a cute and harmless creature having to meet such a fate. Why? I felt damn sad for the lizard. It helps us eat all the irritating insect such as ants, mosquitoes, flies, etc. Such a beneficial reptile, gone just like that. It's really saddening. I got so upset, that I didn't have the mood to eat my snacks anymore.
Life is really so unpredictable. After seeing the gecko, I had decided to come and blog it down, thus this super duper truper long entry. It's even longer than the essays I used to write in secondary school. HaHa.. But wait, isn't I am supposed to be sad right now? So why am I laughing and smiling again?
Well, after I on my computer, I tried to upload these pictures on to my comp, and there, in the same folder, I told those silly pictures of someone. I don't know why but it made me smile again. I'm glad to have known her.. =)
