I can't stand Lit. I'm gonna die. Stupid subject. What was I thinking when I appealed for it?? 4 hours of hearing Mrs Neo droning on and on. Brought along a sketchbook and doodled and realised for the gazillionth time that I so don't have any idea whoatsoever as to how to draw in facial features. Was left with an angel who had no face. Sher thinks it looks better that way.
I went for my Chi today and I kept seeing barrels of burning hell money. Everywhere I turned, I saw incense, candles and ashes. Almost died of asphyxiation. I think today is what, end of the hungry ghost festival or something? There was a big celebration of some sort near my teacher's house and all the while I was being drilled with Chi words, I had the urge to just get up and go see the show cuz the music sure sounded damn good. I think it was a local band playing or something. Couldn't hear the lyrics clearly and I didn't recognise the tunes.

Bedok was crawling with people cuz of the stupid
pasar malam and I had to bloody hell wait for almost an hour for the damn bus. Was already starting to feel fucking pissed off cuz really, I admit, patience is a virtue that I
do not have! While waiting, I saw an old cleaner woman burning a lot of God knows what and I quite liked the way the luminous flames flickered, giving rise to glowing embers that ascended like fireflies, temporarily twinkling against the night sky before disappearing into the darkness. So nice and so calming. I spaced out a bit and the next thing I know, huge ass pieces of dirty grey ashes are flying right at me. Such a lousy day.
And to make things worse, a stop after I boarded the bus, a big group of
mats came on board. Uh oh. I knew I shouldn't have sat at the back. Big groups make me uncomfortable. Later right, a girl about 15 I think got on board and stood, her side facing the
mats and she was wearing super short shorts. The fellas thought it'd be amusing to take pictures of the unsuspecting girl. What an abuse of cameraphones. Very funny is it, to mentally outrage the girl's modesty with your filthy imaginations for the sake of your entertainment?
Speaking of entertainment, I want to go see Quidam!
Anyway, the poor girl must have known something was up when they kept laughing and looking back and forth at the phone screen and her cuz she soon started (un)consciously tugging at her mini shorts.
I bet you this kind of behaviour only happens when the
mats are in big groups. It's natural, I guess, to be more daring when you're surrounded by your friends. Safety in numbers.
Like one time, a few years back, I was on the way home from Changi Village with Aqil and I was having trouble getting into a comfortable position cuz SBS buses never seem to have enough leg room so unintentionally, my knees pushed against the seat in front. The idiot sitting in front turned around and with his beady eyes and
ah beng accent, SHOUTED at me to stop pushing. Later, after I got off, Aqil told me Musa and the rest of the guys got on and the stupid
ah beng's friends got off. They purposely pushed the seat and the idiot just kept mum, unlike before. See what I mean?

Yesterday, some arsehole male chauvinistic pig wrote into Today suggesting that polygamy be legalised to stem rising divorce rates. Such a typical male view! It's marriage, dude. YOU fell in love with her. YOU courted her. YOU proposed to her. YOU took your vows with her to be with each other till death do you part. Just simply keep your dick in your pants and don't screw other women! Is that so hard? Besides, doctors have reported that it's the men who aren't pleasing their wives. YOU can't even satify one woman and YOU want several women?! tsktsk. If I were related to the guy in any little way at all, I'd slap him silly for even thinking of such a stupid "solution".

I'm just feeling so in a mood swing today. I, of all people, didn't feel like walking in the rain. And it's one of those days when I feel like a blob of fat. I stepped out of the shower and I think my thighs have grown to epic proportions. Blahh.
So many "I"s in my posts, don't you think?
