On one of the few rare occasions in my life I didn't sleep for the entire night yesterday. I woke up at 2pm and so I decided, hmm, maybe I shall turn in at 2am. And in the end I got stuck knee-deep in the stupid challenging econs tutorial I find myself wide-awake at 3am. Maybe I shall turn in at 4am I told myself, after I tried doing my Poisson Distribution tutorial. Heh! I finished it at 3.50am. And it started to rain.
I find myself in a place like I've never been before. Seeing countless raindrops falling from the pitch-dark nightsky onto brightly illuminated campus ground. Although the lobby and walkways are brightly-lit, I see nobody. Suddenly I felt like I'm the only one on earth. That kind of feeling sort of rocks! Heh!
Emotions start to overwhelm me. I ransacked the room for my camera. Aha. There it is. Turned on the power and started shooting the magnificent tropical storm ravaging the nighttime darkness.
I walked outside, sat on a stone bench and started to enjoy that wild gust of wind blowing through my ruffled hair (who the hell combs his hair in the middle of the night?!) I felt so peaceful out of a sudden. That kind of peacefulness every single busy soul craves for. Enlightenment :) For the very first time in my life, I know what peacefulness means.
I stumbled upon this song a few weeks ago, and it's called Beautiful Night performed by the band named "The Afters". It's a really nice song! I switched on my MP3 player and sang along with the melody as I watch the storm alone at night.

Before I can realise anything, it was 5.30am on the alarm clock. 30 more minutes to rise-and-shine, so I told myself no point sleeping again. I watched the rain behind my bedroom window with all the lights turned off. So lovely. I touched the water droplets splattered on the window. How cooling. I've never had such a meaningful night before!
6am. I changed into my school uniform and headed off the school… to copy econs tutorial (I didn't write a singly word on it). Haha :D
Anyway, before I end this post and in a bid to brighten up my day, here is a grateful list :mrgreen: names are arranged in alphabetical order:

Haha feL no worries! I’m no where near being a crazy psycho! :mrgreen: I was just sleepless la. Haha. Well thanks for your concern, I will take good care of myself! Heh!
Now we understand the need to mug when we’re J2 la. Last year I still don’t undstand why J2s so mug. I was like “eh, got so much to mug meh?” and now I realise haha if I don’t mug I’ll just die :razz: LOL!
And yea I’m having loads of fun! I miss the senior class too! I miss your sunshine smiles!!! Aww….
You know what? I couldn’t sleep last night too. I was ‘sleeping’ in the bed but my mind was not resting. In the end, I woke up at 4 in the morning and did my homework. Maybe I was a little excited about going back to school after there days of holiday. A few of my friends were also going through the same. In the end, some ended sleeping in the class during free periods this morning.
oh gawd i have been yawning a lot lol, i almost fell asleep in Flash class today. sigh. rainy days are so awesome to sleep. xp
Ahh…. the annoying sleep-less nights. :( That is a great picture that you took of the rainy day. :)
Haaa your message to Ivan was funny. Sorry if you didn’t intend for others to read it. :D
nice header! its been quite some time since i last came here…
WY: Same here! Sometimes I’m really tired but I don’t feel sleepy! It is quite true to say that tiredness doesn’t necessarily equate to sleepiness! But if I can’t sleep then I’ll make good use of the time since I’m all alone and I do some personal experience or do weird things which normally will freak people out of they see me doing :mrgreen: haha! But luckily I always sit at the back of the lecture theatres so I can usually catch a short nap if I want to!
Rei: The weather is so cold lately! Feel so sleepy. And the air-conditioners in the lecture theatres are freezing me! Oooof.
Grace: No worries! I know that when I post anything here it will be read by others… so if I ever want to hide it I would have place it in a password protected post ;) but thanks anyway!
Yanni: Welcome back Yanni! Thanks a lot for your compliment! See you around!
