Day 2 is just pushing too hard
Wednesday, September 27, 2006
Yes, even though our intentions, or rather ambitions were great (perhaps greater than we had imagined), we found ourselves exhausted around 10pm (already).
Of course, Daniel tried to wake up early, and he did at 8am so we must applaud him for trying, even though he fell asleep again only to wake up some two hours later.
As for myself, I unashamedly knocked out from 2+am all the way to 12nn, which was why Kim, who tried to contact me, couldn't get through. The poor girl, don't be too upset ya? We promise to burn that certain someone for you.
Anyway back to Day 2, after lunch and all that, Daniel and I finally started studying at 3+pm in the YIH study room. In case you're wondering, yes it's crowded, just like in the library and full of geeks who have been camping there since morning I would expect. Which reminds me, we've officially turned into one of them.
The studying went on until about 5+pm when we got a call from Kim, informing us that she had reached. So we immediately took a somewhat-not-much-deserved break to drink
teh with her and listened to her outpouring of anger over that not-to-be-mentioned or not-deserving-mention someone. After which, we joined in the act of condemning him and her friend, Siting suggested we burn him.
About 6+pm, Kim and Siting went off for training, which they were reluctant to go (granted, of course our company was much more wanted). This was followed by dinner for the professional geeks and then back to the books.
I have to confess that I got distracted about 8+pm and got lost in ebay, looking for
Ruan Ling Yu (for your info, she's a 1930s Chinese silent film diva). And then.. Oh man, I have to buy the DVD la, it's so much more affordable than HMV! Plus the fact that yesterday when I scoured HMV for the aforementioned DVD, not only was it out of stock, it was out of production already. Darn, I would give anything to be
kiasu this once.
About 9+pm, Daniel fell asleep so silently I didn't realise until I discovered that he was not moving.
Hur hur.
We tried calling Kim at 10+pm to see if training had finished, but ended up calling Day 2 a day and walking over to the pool to look for her. Of course we saw her canoe wading in the pool and decided that she was still busy, and promptly went back, mostly because Daniel said he was pushing too hard.
So you see, Day 2 wasn't so bad after all. We're just training our stamina for even more hours of studying.
