2am.
For the past 2 weeks or so, I have been going to sleep at around that time. You will be rather surprised to see some hardcore nocturnal, including yours truly, people online at that time as well. Well, what they are doing at that dead of the night, only god knows.
For me, I think I just like to savour the stillness and quiet of the night. I mean, I don't get this kind of atmosphere in the morning or afternoon.
We Singaporeans truly work hard. Take a walk down Shenton Way or Raffles Place and you see communters and workers scrruying around industriously to their various destinations.
The only time they ever stop to take a good look at things would be when:
1. There is 2 dollars on the floor
2. There is a car accident; take down number plate to go buy 4D
+ I think this (2) is really downright disgusting. I mean, alright, should you win the third prize in that draw, would you give part of it or even all to the accident victim? No. I think you would not. I think this action is known as fleecing. You benefit from another's misery and I think it's sick.
3. You collaspe due to cardiac arrest and finally SEE what you have missed.
I am seriously taking things one at a time now. Besides, I am not that efficient at multi-tasking unlike the others. I can't read, watch tv, listen to MCR, do homework and memorize facts at the same time.
Believe it or not, there are incredible people like so in this queer watery planet.
Of the late, I have taken up a fancy to read Murder novels.
No, there is still no such thing as the perfecto murder
I doubt if there even will be.
But one thing I got from the text is this:
In layman terms, I am just trying to say that there is more than meets the eye.
So if you see some soul dropping chemistry to take up the beloved subject of history, don't think that what he's doing is dumb.
Don't get me wrong. I am not trying to defend him here cause he gets on my nerves every bloody time. But what I mean is this.
What some people do, they have their own reasons. You may disagree with his actions because you are seeing it from your own narrow perspective. Remove your shoes and try on his. Only then would you see what he saw.
I wanna go play some games.
Ta-ta.
