A Good Day

Oh wow. Today I actually felt like I did something productive around the house. O_o

No classes today. I woke up around 9, lazed around on the bed until 10, then went down to get breakfast. I hadn't had my yoghurt breakfast for a several days now, so it was pretty good to get back into the routine. I couldn't find the container of pear cubes in the fridge, though, so I added a piece of dark chocolate to sweeten it up. Turned out surprisingly yummy; the dark chocolate ball with praline filling went really well with the sourish taste of the yoghurt.

Then I remembered that there were 4 pieces of sushi waiting for me in the fridge, so I unwrapped them and popped them into the microwave oven (if any of you are freaking out over me reheating sushi... well, all I can say is, I dislike eating cold food x_x). Tasted alright, until I started having tummyaches for the next 3 hours. =_= Just great.

Note to self: Consume sushi on day of purchase.

During lunch, I surprised myself by asking my mum if she wanted me to mop the floors or anything. Yes, shocking I know. I actually offered to mop the floor! If my mum was surprised, she didn't show it. She just told me to mop upstairs, so after lunch, I armed myself with a mop-bucket, a pull-the-handle-to-squeeze-out-water mop, and a grim determination to do it until I was satisfied with a job well done...

...and I must say, I am pretty pleased with the results. 3 bedrooms and 1 hall upstairs - I swept each and every one clean before I started mopping, which makes it less of a mess when doing the actual mopping.

Napped for a couple of hours after taking a nice long shower, which felt good. Listening to classical music when reading a good book or drifting off to sleep is total bliss. The calming notes and soothing melodies are so relaxing, like a cool breeze on a hot summer's day.

Well, it's almost midnight. Time to hit the hay, and hopefully I'll wake up a bit earlier tomorrow morning, and do something else that's productive around the house.

Heartless

You know what?

I sometimes think of myself as a heartless bitch. (That felt good!)

I don't like little kids. They're scary, and I have no idea whatsoever how to communicate with them.

Babies are better, since all they do is sleep. (Hopefully)

People my age... Uh, better I guess. Topics of conversation are slightly easier, unless they speak a whole different language.

People older than me (okay, those aged 30 and above)... Well, they usually ignore us "youngsters", so I'm totally fine with it.

I guess it's just that I feel more comfortable by myself or with just a small circle of friends. I like to watch other people, observe what they do, how they react, etc. Maybe subconsciously, I'm just trying to learn something from people's interactions with each other.

Oh wait, that's irony for you. Me being an Interactor in high school and all.

Oh, and last of all, Sao Lee, if you're reading this...

I'm a bitch because I haven't finished Part II of your present yet and I have no idea what content to throw in and I really need some inspiration/ideas. =/ Oops!

First Post of 2010

Hey, it's been a while. It's already the 2nd month of 2010 and here I am posting my first entry for the year.

It hasn't been such a great year so far. I've been sick, I've been sad, I've been disappointed... but there's also been some laughter mixed up in it, so I guess that's okay. Of course, a little retail therapy goes a long way.

It's been on my mind long enough. Every post in my blog(s) are my thoughts at that particular moment in time. I guess that's why most of us blog anyway - to set free our thoughts and ideas, share our experiences, in the hope that it'll bring us some relief. Well, that's definitely the case for me.

I've had this song stuck in my head for the past few days. It's Brian McKnight's "Back At One".

One, you're like a dream come true
Two, just wanna be with you
Three, girl it's plain to see
That you're the only one for me and
Four, repeat steps one through three
Five, make you fall in love with me
If ever I believe my work is done
Then I'll start back at one

All I can say is... Wow ❤
