I feel damn full, and took me a while to figure out why, had macs breakfast at 10 plus, and then went home and had lunch at 12. So... no wonder.
Ok hall has been pretty good, except that I don't really know people who stay around. By circumstance my acrylic guitar and amp are in hall so I don't really get bored, so is my logitech controller. And the ultimate kick in the teeth is, after sharing rooms and having illegal roommates and all, my living space in hall is still bigger than my room at home by twice =[ Sore point of contention for me because my walls are wooden = no privacy. And nosey people snooping around my room which they expect to be unlocked all the time just kills me.
Ok anyway, I have a very bad timetable which can't be improved in any way because I insist on taking Image and Sound Production this sem, in addition to like, Production Management and Comm History. Pretty much decided on going into EBM, or as it's now called, CBS! I mean it is something cool and apparently not many people go for it (contrary to what I believed prior to going CS) so I guess there will be opportunities locally and abroad when we grad... Oh and I am at home for tonight, because I don't have anything else after morning lecture today and tommorow's morning tutorial is non-existent because Ms Draper (Production Management) hasn't yet figured out what to teach us for this week. So I just need to return to school tommorow afternoon, which figures, I might as well sleep at home tonight with nice air con.
Random musing #1: Why is it we feel that there is a need to have some sort of official association with another person before being able to talk to them and "know" them officially? What happened to meeting random people at bus-stops and becoming good friends? Is that really impossible? It is as though, if I do not, in one way or another, know someone else through an official capacity, like for example being in the same tutorial, the same OG, the same CCA and so on, there is a sort of invisible wall that is like "hmmm that guy/gal seems pretty cool but it'll be weird if I go and make friends, because there is no official connection" So does that mean we must all wait until there is some form of connection before we can get to know someone? What if that connection never comes? Would we sacrifice that ONE chance of getting to know said person? Hmmm. Interesting, would make a nice short film script.
Random musing #2: Sometimes I get on the train (read: on my way home today) and I put on my music at the normal level (read: so I don't hear what's going on around me) and weird things happen. Ok first, I fell asleep on 179 until the uncle had to shout at me to get off his f***ing bus. Ok, maybe he did say that, maybe he said it in hokkien or something, but sorry, ok? I fell asleep and he could be nice. What happened to the bus captain spirit?? Ok. Anyway I fell asleep on the train only to be woken up by some guy who crashed into me cause he couldn't sit down in time before the train moved. Ok, like, common mistake, we acted on social scripts (HAH, HXM I still remember what you teach) and he apologized and I accepted his apology. Then I realised my sandals was in a pool of like wetness. First thought was "OH NO DID I FRIGGIN PEE ON MYSELF I HAVENT DONE THAT SINCE XXXX (put in year of last happening here)" so I checked. Don't worry I didn't. Ok so next thought was "IS MY BAG LEAKING, F***, MY LAPTOP AND CHARGER!", and I realised I didn't carry any sort of liquid with me, so that thought passed. And the real reason for the wetness was some uncle who carried frozen foodstuff into the train in an NTUC plastic bag, and the laws of simple physics (or is it biology?) something about temperature means there was condensation and well, it was a shit load of water vapor-turned-water which flowed in my direction. Ok, fine. So I woke up and gave said man a disapproving stare. Returned with a sheepish expression of "oh well, I'm sorry but I have a right to be on this train too" so fine, not much of a big deal anyway. So I went back to sleep. Only to be woken up rudely by a very loud and shrill female voice in Chinese talking on the phone. Ok, I thought, some auntie. But I looked up in my cabin and I can't see anyone who are opening their mouths. So I looked over to the next cabin, no. The voice came from the NEXT NEXT cabin, and it was LOUD, okay. LADY, IF I CAN HEAR YOU OVER MY HEADPHONES YOU ARE WAY TO FUCKING LOUD. Not to mention from two carriages away. And the train was pretty crowded, so I was wondering why nobody, while everyone was visibly bothered, thought of asking the slut to shut the fuck up. Tsk, inconsiderate people.
I feel like I might or might not join SPECTRUM. Sounds interesting but really requires a lot of commitment and effort. Maybe yes. At the very least help to redesign the opening theme? After all I won't really have a CCA anymore, I have a hall room and nothing much to do other than to study (ok that's alot of work)
Oh well..
