Ehh.. no no. I'm not sick, and not reporting sick. Choy, touch wood. But it's 6am exact now. That means I have yet to sleep a wink...

The funny thing is I actually don't really feel sleepy. I feel very very hungry even though I downed a mug of milo and some Digestive biscuits some 3 hours ago (my MOST favourite biscuit). Fantasising about my favourite vegetarian bee hoon... but I also miss the morning lor mee stall at Khatib.. These are one of the best choices for breakfast in Khatib. Heh.

I finished the Starbucks report around 130am after repeated checking and drafting of new paragraphs. The 10 page limit for the report proper itself was very irritating and that meant I had to put most of my team's research into appendix and devote 4 full pages on suggestion strategic solutions for Starbucks Singapore. Hope it is acceptable so that I'm on track for my B..

Yesterday I brought my grandma to the hospital for a check-up. We were late 5minutes because of my delayed departure from home (struggling with the above report). However, we were kept waiting for almost an hour. Not too sure what ailment she has but she has to go for further tests to confirm. The waiting wasn't very irritating because Eileen was messaging me. The wait to pay up was troublesome because many of them were knocking off. I ran up and down the stairs a few times trying to be at the pre-admission counselling session as well as to be able to pay the silly $31.55 bill. Yawnz.

Talk about being too free after the exam. Eileen mentioned that some Indian guy crashed into her and then she felt giddy, fearing she was "cursed". I offered the option of going to the "holy place" for a cleansing and protection session, and she seems to like it. Maybe to improve her relationship with her father, they should both go to the "holy place" for peace in the mind. Personally I do not like going there even though I do not have anything against the devotees nor the "holy representative", but it is always interesting to hear superstition stories from my mother. The challenge is to make them fit into real life logic, rather than just unquestioned acceptance. My mother is a definite 200% devotee and therefore it sometimes makes me think if there is such a thing called "religious indulgence".

Speaking about indulgence, I have been really enjoying the super leisurable pace of life that I have yet to flip a single page of the textbooks. When I have the mood, I cook and make my own food. I watch tv with attention (especially HK modern setting dramas)but I still want to watch some movies like Mr Bean's Hliday or maybe the japanese movie Dream Detective (the trailer feeling reminds me of Death Note...) Anyone catching these movies soon?

Finally, most of the football leages had passed a considerable season. My fantasy league points are picking up! Hope the winds go my way!
