without night, without day, the nights have merged into the day, and the days have merged into the nights.. this uber unhealthy lifestyle of lasting till 8 in the morning, sleeping till 2, waking up and continuing the vicious cycle.. i'm fine as a night owl, but not everyday too... when the job starts, there will be overnight shifts, i guess i'd do well during those times, its the morning shifts that worry me, but that won't be coming about till june i suppose.. meanwhile it'll be back to the regular hours when the course starts..
it got really terrible on saturday, after a few endless nights, i managed to drag myself out of compclub to ecp, and to my surprise, it was quiet, the usual crowd wasn't there... where have all the skaters gone? the weather was surprisingly good, considering the rain had persisted from thursday... asked around, the crowd had really decided to give ecp a miss that day... it wasn't exactly great skating too, considering there wasn't anything to slalom, i left my cones back at the car, back at the last carpark before fort road, since having to skate down with em cones to mcDs wasn't appealing that day...
did jumps, and tumbled, did slides, and hey, i think i've gotten the hang of some of those slides luc taught... but the consistency left me with much to desire... it got really draggy after awhile, most of them left to play pool, leaving me in the company of kc, and we eventually got tired and decided to skate to the car and call it a day...
made it back to the car, took our own sweet time to change up, drive back to mcDs, go look for them at the parlour, found them, watched a few games, then adjourned to siglap raimah for some pattaya... sat around, chatted, and kc flooded the idea of "bu therapy" (aka CHIO BU therapy) into our heads... and i found out desmond was such an accomplished diver, with 3 master certifications.. i have lotsa respect for the old timer divers, who underwent sport diving instruction, naval diver style...
i wanted to go down to ecp to meet up with edwin on sunday, but the weather decided that i should stay home, and eventually i went back to compclub... my home away from home.. but it's not the place that's great, in fact it's really a cesspool, but the company is oh so excellent, the people are all so fun, and now they've all gone on and try the skates that i sold to crab, and milk may get another pair from me.. which may be good for me, given that it's going to help feed me for the month of december...
caught up with an old friend recently, and the floodgates of memories opened, memories which i had thought i relegated to the recesses of my mind, but they all came back out, fresh from the oven... it has been an interesting growing experience for me, and i think it's about time there was some more introspection on my part, to weed out what has been my downfall most of the time, the cause of my regrets, the cause of misery for others..
there are big plans for wednesday, and i hope everyone will enjoy themselves, the plans include a big dinner gathering at paulaners brahaus, followed by a night of decadence at zouk, but being the old men we are, i guess debauchery at wine bar would suffice...
all the best of luck to those with papers left.. wednesday will come soon, your relief is near.
