Goodness why am I here blogging away at this unearthly hour?! Guess I slept too much today. The fact that my stupid, irritating, retarded and not leaving out, noisy dial-up (the modem is kinda driving me bonkers already), hung up on me for like the umpteen times is nearly enough for me to smash it up. But lucky for the modem it's kept safely under the protection of my beloved laptop. I'll make sure I get rid of him soon. Somehow I'm gonna get "negotiations" through and get my broadband, then I'll be wireless here I come!
Don't blame me for being utterly irritable today. It's just sickening when things don't go your way. First I tried arranging for a day out with the girls this term break, just to get replies of uncertainties. Blame it on the stupid university education which taxes us like slaves even during breaks. Blame it on my foul luck and bad social skills that I can't get some proper company for a day of shopping. Sigh. Second I was trying to decide whether or not I should go for a retreat tomorrow (in fact it's later) in the night after my evening out with my darling, but up till now I haven't gotten my hands on the information I need to confirm that decision. Irritating to be unable to make plans, but that a small matter. The last straw was when I tried to kill some time before bedtime, the stupid connection lags like crazy and even caused my maple character to die. FYI, maple refers to Maple Story. It's an online game I've been sort of addicted to for a year plus already. As to why I started getting addicted, probably due to someone special. You know, it's like he plays so I play, then we'll have another common topic to chat about. I shan't elaborate, it's trailing too far off from today's irritable mood.
There's nothing wrong being a grumpy old lady sometimes. I'm just adjusting between adulthood and teenage life. I have a privilege of acting like a spoilt brat sometimes and be most authoritative like a full adult in the next. The joys of being 21. Hell to those that mock me for turning old. So what?!
Hmmm.. Talking about turning 21, I just had quite a few friends that did over the weekend. My dear councillors from AJSC, Stef, Kaiting and Shou Wen. And another new friend, Huiling, who's Leon's IA colleague. Felt rather terrible still that I missed Shou Wen's party. Agreed to go but the cake-cutting at Huiling's only happened at 9 plus. Wasn't very pleasant to leave before that, I didn't want Leon to look bad too. Well I tried apologising, he seemed like he enjoyed the rest of his friends' company and was fine with my absence. Made up for it with a prompt sms just now at 12am which I promised. Hope it removes a bit of that guilt off me. Anyway after I left the chalet at Pasir Ris, I bumped into the bunch or councillors who were earlier at Shou Wen's. They were on their way to give Stef a surprise. Couldn't join them, didn't really felt like it too 'cause I have not planned for it and I don't really fancy last minute changes. So here's a Happy Birthday wish to Stephanie, Kaiting and Shou Wen! All the best for your future undertakings and don't forget your old friends!
Time for bed. I've been doing myself much injustice from the lack of sleep during weekdays I should make sure I get ample rest this break. And sadly but it's a cold hard fact, to get my work and studying done before term break end.
