Feel groggy and tired. Bad start to the day I guess. School's starting in two days' time, and I'm really dreading it. Did my schedule till late last night and it really doesn't look good, everyday is simply packed with lectures/tutorials/pracs, on top of other useless stuff like pbl, frs and hrm. The physical drudgery - waking up early (and this sem it's gonna be even earlier cos i'll be driving and I can't speed/cut lanes like Dad can) - is still nothing compared to the mental drag which is med school. The tests, the mind-boggling boredom, the lack of humour and mischievousness which characterized my rgs days (in rj it was rather reduced, but still there) make me miss my gang so, so much (different classes in rj, now different schools). Sure, I have friends. The 3k pple, WL and OL, but the one and only person whom I can share my weird thoughts and crazy jokes with is F_. They say humour is a way of escaping reality, and I never fully appreciated that till last year. F_ is the only one who is truly on the same wavelength as I am, and sometimes I suspect he feels the same way too.
I drank quite abit on monday. It was unintentional, cos I only bought two bottles of 5% alcohol vodka (vodka for children) but after consuming one bottle, went down for dinner and Dad had got steak and a bottle of wine (13%. is that standard for all red wines?) and he didn't know I had been drinking in the afternoon so he gave me an extra extra large glass of wine. I was rather thankful for that actually, cos 1) I was feeling shitty and 2) I was damn worried, so I just wanted to drink and fall into deep sleep, but strangely enough I ended up reading till 2+am (the worry and anxiety actually overrode the large amt of alc ingested) and had to wake up at 6am to give F_ a morning call for his driving test. Well, he passed it. Phew. Gave him the other bottle.
After his test we went to his house to rest, and to wait till 3pm when the sushi buffet started. Then we went over to t plaza to eat, and we ate so much we had to take a cab home so we could empty our stomachs asap.
I guess I should go and tidy up my room. Although I don't study there, and my study table in the library is actually very very neat, the sheer amount of books scattered on my room table is just horrible. Library books, half-finished home books, bank statements, letters...On top of that, all my bags are piled up in a corner, and i bet if I lifted them up I'd reveal cobwebs, dust, and maybe even a new species of ant. Will do it tonight if I'm in the mood.
Oh, and I'm supposed to read up. Was supposed to. But what with one thing and another simply never got down to doing it. This week and the next is only intros to this and that, so I guess it's not so bad. But anyway.
F_ wants to meet for gym at 2pm. I'm damn tired, but I hafta go cos 1) he'd be furious if I didn't and 2) I'm putting on weight cos we haven't worked out but we've been eating a lot of buffets and chocolates so I ought to anyway. Wdv.
Oh if I had to recommend a book for light reading, the complete robot by asimov would be it. Yeah I'm a geek. So sue me.
