how long?
Long, boring and exhuastive - a typical Tuesday of school in my life.It actually started off quite well. I might have heard Dr. William Tan's lecture last year when VS invited him, but he seems more engaged with the audience this time round and perhaps even more inspiring. At the same time, most of the things that he mentioned remain relevant to me. In my memory, I grew up the same way, maybe with much more love and much less difficulty. Alas, "Passion is everything." And we need to keep that flame alive.
Then came lectures and tutorials. Physics lecture was pretty routine, while I managed to catch up with my Physics and Mathematics Tutorials!! There was this unusually long "break" today, and Gerald and I eneded up in the canteen having drinks and joking away, laughing hysterically. Thankfully, no one looked at us as if we're a bunch of mentally deranged psychos. Just as we were walking to the library, I saw Doria in front of me and wanted to say hi. My mouth was already opened, and it stayed there for a while without uttering a sound. I could not enunciate a single word. I saw Joanne in front of Doria.
That's the reason why my mouth was kept wide open. Fortunately, Doria didn't turn around and say 'Hi Bryan!', if not I would end up like some character from a comic book with 3 lines flowing down from the temples of my head. Two possibilities: 1) Get "suan-ed" by her or 2) "Hi stupid."
Well, either way, I get embarassed and she gets high. I definitely won't want to see an ambulance from a mental hospital pick her up from VJC's foyer.
And this was what we said:
Bryan: That's the girl who calls Shi Wei and me stupid.
Gerald: That one? From the ASEAN thingy ah? She's damn skinny, and her bones are damn small.
Bryan: And she claims she's a man.
Gerald: Siao. Ding dong.
Bryan: Quite obvious.
Hahax lol!! I still remember what Shi Wei and I were discussing during the DHS ASEAN Plus Summit after she called us stupid:
Bryan: Stupid?? Define stupid.
Shi Wei: Stupid's the new clever.
Bryan: How true and insightful.
Somehow or rather I suppose they knew about that.
On another note, I went to get my hair cut when I wasn't supposed to. (I always have a tedency to call it REDS despite it's name being ONE SALON because of the proximity clause in their company's policy.) And I got shaved. Not that I wanted to. And WAIT!! Please don't have the impression that I'm bald, because I'm not and that's the last thing I would ever want. Mummy was telling our hairstylist, Kevin, to give me a short haircut since I sweat very easily. And Mummy was going : "Yup, cut it short. Yes, short. Correct, short, unlike the previous time." When Kevin took out a shaver, I thought it was for fun. Within 10s, he had shaved off the sides of my hair, exposing the scalp pretty much!! Yikes!! But what's done cannot be undone... So I said "Ok, at the very most, I will come back tomorrow to complaint after I turn into the butt of my friends' jokes!"
He took the remnants of my hair from the cloth and told me: "If you want, I help you to glue back. Don't need money one. You want short, is like that one. Your mummy say short, short, short, so I cut it short lor! Actually, is not short, but VERY SHORT!" Lol!! Not to mention that he didn't cut the back straightly again. In hokkien, we call this 'Pa Jiao" (cock-eye).
All this work is making me so tired and lethargic and left me in a terrible mess. My soul is weary.
I suppose I should sleep early today.
Don't drift away from me. I want you right here. I need you right now. But my voice is drowning in the vast seas. Without you, I have lost my sense of direction. I need you, like I so desperately crave a beacon.
Please wait for me, will you?
The time will come soon. I promise.
