Nearly a year has passed. This year, I went at almost everything with jump-in behaviour and head-butt my way just like what my instinct told me to do so. At the end of everything, I achieved my objectives which are to experience as many things as I can and to uncover the cap of the people around me. Along the way, the pain inflicted and damage caused are enormous. Up to one point I thought of giving up. I found friends and I discover foxes in sheep clothing, lurking in the corner waiting to pounce at you at every opening exposed. Life is difficult at some period. It felt like the Dark Age has descended upon me. Seriously, I was at the end of my wits and I had reached the blank point in my life. All the anger, hatred, sadness and negativism clouding my mind. Alhamdulillah, slowly I crawled my way out of the dark tunnel. I'm very blessed because there are many people who support and encourage me at difficult time.
I just realized that I actually enjoyed this unwanted, long holiday after I spent two nights staying up late to finish two novels ( ah, 1 am is never too late for me. The night has just started, babe! Urgh, why did I sang this line mentally when I dislike people using 'Babeee'? Now, I feel lousy. But, the line is so catchy and the impression it has stayed on my subconscious mind... ) There, there. Now I has started this internal rambling again. Lucky it has not become a habit to mumble to myself in public ( soliloquy, said Madam Janet. I first had an encounter with this word in Macbeth's class during our foundation years and I had a love-hate relationship with it since then. Who wouldn't, especially when one had to endure a 3-hours-class every week just to keep on hearing the same word being repeated again n again and to discuss the text for three months?) I am still amazed at Madam Janet's patience to deal with us especially the shameless me who sat at the front
My belief that I can consume almost any food was shattered last Raya just because of an innocent incident. We ran out of Milo and it is a big no-no to serve Sarsi or Orange cordial for breakfast. Rummaging through the cupboard, I spotted a small packet of 'kopi timbang' and I decided to use it. Well, as expected, only the grown-ups drank it except for a few adventurous children. I was tempted to try as I rarely drink 'kopi timbang' and it has been ages since I had coffee. If I was not mistaken, I finished two or three medium sized glasses in one shot. The 'kopi' was okay and I was about to pour another glass when I thought of my sugar intake.Little did I know that my tryout on 'kopi timbang' will turn out to be a nightmare. I had headache, nausea and blurred eyesight. Only after taking a nap, I was back to my old self again. My, my. Kupi oh kupi..
