i can’t sleep
17/11/2009
So I decided to go take a peek out into the night sky. Apparently the Leonid shower is taking place. I suppose I should’ve given it a little longer, but I got bored.
I saw a little streaky one, so mission accomplished.
Not all wishes are fulfilled, though. As evidenced by the snoring I still hear.

Woke up this morning with an ache in my left year. That’s not good. The last time I had a horrible time with my year it was 2006. Very annoying. This time to get it flushed won’t be as simple as walking over to Raffles Hospital and $50.
Well I am now left to try a cerumenolytic for a few days. Hopefully the wax will disperse naturally, if not I’ll have to try syringing it later in the week. This is very annoying, the ear is ringing constantly, and I feel like something is stuck in my ear.
Thing is, in previous episodes, the ear infection came with or heralded a larger issue – either the onset of the flu, or a throat infection. I hope it’s just an isolated issue this time.
In other news, I searched “ear” on my photostream and found this photo. So here it is.

It’s a good day today.
I was watching an American Football game when an interesting face popped out from a trailer for some (albeit a little lame looking) series called Three Rivers.
That interesting face, I should’ve recognised, is Daniel Henney. Tell me it’s not meant to be!
Guess Sunday nights won’t be a complete post-football void.
A little each day

I’ve decided, that from now, I’m going to find something to be positive about each day. It’s not that I’m super depressed or anything. But I’m stepping up and looking inward like a good Asian. Our values structure prioritises it and now finally, I appreciate it.
It’s a good day today. It’s overcast, and threatening to rain. The air is heavy, not just with anticipation. Rain is good. We need it. My lawn needs it. And it’s not really cold yet. This reminds me of home, except that at home, it would’ve thundered and lightninged and drenched the streets with dramatic flair by now. Over here rain is a pensive affair.
I like being reminded of home. Perhaps one day this will feel like home.

My friends (the both of you),
Fret not. I realise I exercise my privilege to whine more frivolously than others exercise their right to multiply and find a happiness only the most giving of us are born with. I apologise for the alarm, if any.
But for a stubborn herd instinct, probably created to ensure the survival of a species, I am satisfied with my smartass decision which I so smugly display atop a finely stacked deck of cards. Annoyingly, the instinct to survive is a tough sucker to rid, kind of like Malware. And the image of people I thought I knew, knocked up and happy, makes for a seriously disturbing vision. Akin to a giant fat toddler stepping on my fine pyramid of cards with its heavy, milk enriched chunker they call a foot.
But that’s what you get for (a) being human and (b) smugly displaying your insecurities, which I attribute to (a).
I wish it were the highly intellectual, rational or moral reasons you guys give me the benefit of the doubt for that are the basis of my decision, but sadly in my case they are just afterthought, really. I wish there was some struggle between light and dark, good and bad, right and wrong. But alas. I got kind of peckish and finished a bag of M&Ms instead.
Perhaps I should’ve written it differently. Or perhaps it was really bugging me more than I realise. All I really wanted to say was, I wish I was different growing up. I wish I hit on a couple of boys. Oh and by the way, everyone’s pregnant. Did they pop something in the water?
So fret not for me, Singapura. The truth is I never grew up.
Well, I now leave you guys with a picture of a bird and a bee. Don’t worry, they’re SFW*.
Luv,
me
* Safe For Work. As opposed to many other pictures of the birds and the bees, which are NSFW.
