Went to school to study today. Bad mistake, not least because I failed to achieve anything substantial in the library,but because I was caught in the rain on the way home...bummer. My small umbrella proved useless against the relentless beatings of the rain and I was shivering in the air-conditioned bus. On the way home, was trying to take a nap to prep myself for another long marathon of studying at night. No such luck, i was sandwiched between two imps who were busy teasing each other, making funny faces at each other, talking to each other in nonsensical garble which was probably intelligible only to themselves. One of the imp's mother kept shushing the him, threatening to embarrass him in the bus(whatever it means) while the other boy's mother simply couldn't be bothered. So the boy whose mother couldn't be bothered kept baiting the other boy while he kept rising to the bait and as a result was scolded by his mother and also disturbed my peace. But I felt that the mother was being too domineering. If her kid wants to interact with another kid, let him be...I see no harm in that(other than disturbing my peace). Why did she have to keep admonishing him in a no-nonsense voice which didn't help at all, as he continued to squirm about in his seat and laughing at the antics of the other kid.

I didn't manage to stay off chocolate after all, the craving was simply too much and I went to the coop to buy the cadbury mini-eggs, all Jan's fault for introducing me to that ;p....anyway think its nicer than m&ns The first one that I ate was simply.....bliss...ahhhh

So the combination of excessive junk food, stress, lack of sleep, plus getting caught in the rain has led to my usual symtoms of falling sick...like being extremely thirsty and very tired. When I start getting these symtoms, I usually start drinking tons of water and taking more vit c and it usually works. so hopefully this would keep the bug away, I can't afford to fall sick now. I still have so many things left undone.

Anyway it was Stephen's birthday today and it was a very enjoyable lunch with Kaetnians as we goofed around and posed for pics with him, and sang a birthday song for him at the deck and thus attracting lots of attention which rendered him quite 'paiseh'. At least the trip to school was not wasted....
