thou shalt not conform when thou could blaze thy own path..

Thursday Morning

Yesterday was Thursday. It was holiday in Malaysia.

I was so excited the previous day that I couldnt sleep, cos I was thinking of the many cleaning ups I can do.

Yes, I've finally gone insane, overboard with cleaning. No, you nincompoop. I just procrastinated on loads of cleaning up, thus it's a good day to catch up (also to shut off sister's nagging).

So on wed nite, I did 3 laundries, cleaned the room while sis slept, till 4-5am, while watching The Mummy.

Partly also my mind was clouded by smtg n my brain wouldnt shut down. Like tat guy I used to hav a crush on, well, a friend showed me his latest photo (one photo) and I was back to highschool. Darn..*knock-head-over-imaginary-wall

Next morn, I went w sis to morning market to buy some vege and meat produce, and off we go to IKEA to get that Brattby I've been aiming.

IKEA was jam, sis went to the hotdog counter to get that dog I wanted, while I went to get that bookcase (asked an employee to drag the box towards the trolley, he was smiling when he saw me asking cos I was female and alone, perhaps thinking how the heck I'm gonna drag it to watever transport I was riding that day) and paid.

The cashier counter was a drag, the lane was extremely slow. I saw the lane next to me, feeling cranky cos I didnt get enuf sleep and I was hoping to get home by now, who knows everybody wanted to go IKEA shopping thursday morning. Darn.

With two female loading two boxes into Kenari, not a pretty sight I must say, off we go home.

Using the trolley my mum got me 3 yrs back, we moved the shelves back to the condo.

While I was excited going thru the leaflets of how to install the bookcase, my sis busied herself with carrot cake recipe.

So I spent the whole day going thru the installation booklet, and by 2pm, I had it finished installed, all by myself.

Then when I asked my sis to help me to move the bookcase, she said, "You shuld know it's a one person's job" without even glancing at me!!!

Shit, so being less feminine and every bit as tired but still excited, I pushed the bookcase to the wall all by myself, not a light feat I might add.

So there it is, Brattyby bookcase, as storecabinets. So I put all the kitchen wares that we never use to the shelves.

Then as I cleaned up, I saw a bunch of small nails that I didnt use. And I went to the bookcase and tried shaking it a bit. It holds. So I just put away the nails and the thought of the bookcase falling flat in the future into the back of my mind.

House is looking better, but still can be improved.

Cant help thinking tat I was being feminine by reminiscing bout past crush while at the same time hammering my arse off in the most masculine manner while my sis was doing feminine chores like cooking, I'm so stereotyping right then.

Now listening to Half Life, crooning onto "cause lately, something here don't feel right, this is just a half life, don't you see i'm breaking down, is there really no escape, no escape from time of any kind"

*sigh..the mind is a mysterious little bugger.

"Feminine and masculine in one day; a confusion that never ends." - ngy
