lately i've been having a lot of weird nightmares. these typically happen during my morning nap, and in line with freudian theory, practically everything they involve are flashbacks from what occurred the previous day. they seem to span almost a day and revolve around me forgetting stuff or screwing things up, although i tend to wake up at the most tragic parts and discover that i've only been sleeping an hour or two. to have these as recurring themes in what must be extremely frenzied dreaming is not comforting at all. plus when i wake up i actually feel more exhausted than before, like the other day i woke up with my head throbbing and feeling as if i was going to die. the other times i woke up feeling like i was dying were on results day and when i had to take an X-ray for The Butcher. my nightmares almost always precede imminent shit so i'm just waiting for the next one to hit.

yesterday i found this packet of cereal drink powder in the pantry and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was quite yummy, because as a rule healthy food always tastes bad. after all you can't have everything, and people apparently think that a few extra years of life is supposed to compensate for bland food. anyway, when i was about to proceed for more, i discovered that the cereal drink expired in 2001, which was like FIVE YEARS AGO. i was quite grossed out and had to eat a whole mango to get over it! and so now i am pleased to report that i have yet to experience any symptoms of diarrhea or food poisoning, so it is possible that all my training with expired chocolates has paid off.

and lastly, KEVIN GOT VOTED OFF! yes, this proves that america does have a brain after all. incidentally, ever wondered why it's "singapore idol" and not "singaporean idol"? hello i think we have a massive grammar mistake here! imagine, if we can't even get the title right, what more should we expect from the singing dammit??
