The Long Night Is Over

Last night has gotta be the very first time ever since I started my current job, that I wasn't able to go to sleep before midnight. I was tossing and turning, feeling so disturbed about one thing or another. It sure doesn't help that when I was on my way home yesterday, I saw the light to the toilet of my old secondary school (which is currently being occupied by a primary school for the time being) being lit up, and that I saw "something" from where I was walking, at the covered walkway. I am not sure what it was.

At the same time, I got reminded of the ghoulish tales from Tuesday's hangout session, no thanks to Imma and her boyfriend. All these and some other things (which I'll just keep to myself for now...) kept me so awake last night. And for the first night since forever, I had to turn the radio on to accompany me to sleep. Coz I was feeling so bloody alone and constricted, it was purely suffocating. My wild imaginations only made it all worse. I only managed to fall asleep after sending out a few SMSes. Somehow, at that point in time, I just needed some kind of contact with real people, just to put me at ease.

Despite the few hours of sleep and god knows how hard it is for me to keep myself awake at work today, I actually had one of the most exciting and mindless and very tiring day out with my cousin. Much needed after-work therapy. Uhmm, why do I have this sinking feeling that I'm starting to emulate certain bloggers in my expressions over here? Hah.

So anyways, we had about 16 bucks in our Timezone card to share. Two times on the radical simulator, once on the "bowling alley", once on the car racing, once shooting wild beasts on the screen and once on my all-time favourite air hockey. It was so FUNNNNN! I swear it's been so long since I last spent so much on cheap thrills at the arcade. And for just TWO persons, it's really crazy.

The last time I recalled spending so much at the arcade was when I was really young, and dad was okay with spending so much on us (me and my siblings) just to have a superbly good time. Then as I grew up, it kinda sunk into me, how wasteful it is to spend your money at the arcade. But not anymore. From the small spendings on the Daytona machines, and shooting hoops and whatnot with my friends, I think I'm gonna make going to the arcade a more frequent affair. Lol.

After our arcade session, we set out on a very unusual and mindless shopping experience. Unusual coz my cousin is the one who wanna do all the shopping. Usually she's broke (ha ha ha) but since her birthday was just a few days ago, she'd gotten some cash as presents and so she just wanted to get something something for herself. Another reason why it was unusual is because we actually entered a whole lot of shops and actually paid our visits TWICE to some of them. Plus we circled the whole shopping mall for quite a bit, that even I was starting to feel the strain. Seriously,not our norm hokay.

Ended it all with two medium iced tea and large fries at Mac's. By then I was already feeling so woozy. I don't wanna think about the amount of money I'd spent on such mindless fun. And for the record, I STILL have yet to receive my pay. Screw the school.
