Life has been . different these past weeks. Most of the time, it's just the mother and me with the younger sister occasionally rewarding us with a blast of pmsy fire-breathing mood swings.
Okay, maybe I may have contributed some to that fire.
Sometimes I feel sad and lonely when no one calls but at the same time, I get snappy and pissy at anybody who dares to call.
Never...
And I mean, NEVER ..
Call when I'm sleeping cos I'll end up cursing you for the next 3 hours or so.
Call when I'm doing my work (which happens to be 90% of my time spent awake)
Call when I don't feel like answering the phone... (which happens to be 100% of the time)
But other than that, I feel like I can really live in this silence. The empty house to say goodbye to when I leave for school.... and the empty house to greet when I come back from school. GIves me some space to think and do my own things. But hey, that's just the antisocial in me speaking.
The social side of me (insignificant as it may be) is depressed. I have had an unhealthy overdose of conversations with the mother. Not that that's anything bad or negative, it's just that she's the only one I can talk to in the house... and I don't think urging the 2 turtles to eat their veggie is counted as talking.
Assesment week in school means that I only get out of the house to school only twice this week and even then, the only person I talk to is the teacher and maybe one random friend and maybe the occasional random pakcik at the bus stop who was telling me his life story as a draughtsman, drawing up building plans.
Yes. In case you're wondering, you're right.
I attract random people, like the Indian lady on the train who wants to make her passport which she had lost somewhere, the Makcik in the lift who offered me a lift to my driving lesson, the Banquet aunty who interviewed me on the cost of dental brace that her teenage daughter wanted to get, .. oh yes .. that's not the end. I wouldn't be able to finish the whole list, I assure you. In my short nineteen years, I've had so many strange encounters of random people chatting me up.. but haha, they're never the right sort, get what I mean? (:
Well anyway . My point is that. Life has gotten into an impossible routine. Wake up, do work, dinner, sleep .
I need some excitement in my life. But somehow, it's a routine I could get used to.
Haha. I can live like this.
