Fire le missiles! (But I am le tired)

I was blog-hopping after centuries of abandoning the internet. Well, not really. I am still guilty as charged for my regular facebook hits. But the numbers are declining overtime. It's a good thing I suppose. I must say I've been on my toes for the past week and I've never been more satisfied with the amount of accrued sleep I debited the whole of today and yesterday. I have a big smile on my face now. Eee yes, I'm smiling to myself. Eee, what the? Eee. Very eee.

Okay so I am now going to participate in this 15 randoms of this very random life.

1. My one-week spring break is going on at the moment. Plus, Eid is in a few days. So yes, a reasonable person would have an agenda to look forward to. For once, I have no plans and I'm pretty okay about it as well. It does seem a little sad when you know your bestfriend is spending quality rendang + ketupat time with his/her family while you watch a dog catch a frisbee at the park. My emphasis here would be that raya here is just like every other day for me.
   
2. In less than two months, I'm gunna be singing and jumping at Festival Hall, Melbourne. Yesssss, what a way to end my degree (with God's will, of course). Does Halo and Helicopter ring a bell? :D Many thanks to Hafriz.
   
3. I find it hard to leave the house without my nasal spray nowadays. It used to be the cellphone, but now I can't care less about it if my nasal spray isn't next to me. True, priorities change as you grow.
4. For some odd reason, I have the US national anthem stuck in my head for the past 2 days. Must be the influence of endofworld.net
5. "Why so glump, chump?", he said.
6. The exam timetable's out. I am done with all my assignments. Which leaves me to be paranoid all over again.
7. I collected 5 out of 10 of the Yarra Trams "Did You Know?" Passenger Cards. I missed the first five when I was in New Zealand, so if anyone who happens to know what I'm talking about and somehow has extras, I'd be more than happy to exchange numbers with you.
8. The posters on my wall keep coming off due to the strong wind and warm weather these days. It's such a pain to stick 'em back again and again. Okay, why do I sound like I'm complaning?
   
9. Apparently, I'm pure. Wha-aa-aat?
10. Scuba-diving when I'm back in Malaysia! I want I want I want I must I must I must. Discipline, my friend.
    
11. I think Elmo is a self-absorbed bastard. I will never look at him the same way again. Eurgh.
12. My thoughts are with Jennifer Shonali Mendes who's in Hong Kong at her dad's funeral. I've never seen anyone as strong as her, really.
13. Turn that frown.
14. Upside down.
15. But I didn't say smile.

Not much of an interesting one. Kering, but hopefully rangup.
Corniness at my best. Ngeh.

To more hooray hooray days, people!

Aira.

Kids

A 14-year old boy and a 22-year old girl in the tram on the way back from school.

Boy: Hey, do you have a smoke? *puffs*

Girl: Excuse me?

Boy: Heh heh. I'm just kidding. *pulls girl's hand*

Boy: Oh my God, are you double jointed or something? *bends girl's thumb backwards*

Girl: No, I guess I'm just flexible.

Boy: Wow, that's amazing *tries to bend own thumb while squinting*. My hands are dirty because I was gardening.

Girl: Oh, where? *bends boy's thumb a couple of times*

Boy: In school. Wait, where are you from?

Girl: Where do you want me to come from?

Boy: Hmmm. America?

Girl: Okay then, America it is.

Boy: But you look Chinese?

Girl: Why can't Chinese people be Americans?

Boy: So you are Chinese?

Girl: Well, I could be Korean or Indonesian.

Boy: Ah, you're Indonesian! Okay, speak something Indonesian.

Girl: Selamat pagi. Okay run along now.

Talkative little rascals make me smile.

Stretch like a cat

Today marks another day where things just seem to fall out of place. Or so I think. I do not know what gets to me when I am surrounded by closed doors. I don't think straight, I make a mess of myself, and I just mourn over everything I do, which is basically, nothing. Until today I still can't comprehend this rather amusing behavior I possess every time I feel incredibly... unstable.

I tell myself it's normal, I tell you that it's normal, and I keep reminding myself that tomorrow I'll feel better when I get up to a new morning. Maybe you think being invisible is not that big of a deal. And maybe you are right. Or maybe I try too hard to make everything look completely okay when me, you, and everyone we know knows that it is not. Yes, I throw in 200% of my effort and yes, I choose how I want things to go by. So what do you do when you're out of choices already?

Its obvious that this is coming out of me due to plain boredom. If this is how it is at 22, boy, the only thing I have left to say for myself is; fucking weak, you are.

These things seem to come each and every month. Well I guess menstruation can't be avoided unless I get rid of my ovaries. But the cough, the sinus, the horrible stomach discomfort; it's like they self-activate themselves whenever they delightfully feel like torturing me. Which leaves me to only one thing I am capable of; begging for life's mercy. Unfortunately, the drugs don't work anymore.

Happy Ramadhan.
