Sigh.
What a gloomy day. Just the day (and night), though, not my life. My life today was pretty good.

It started out with me trying to wake up at 10.30am to my deafening alarm-clock, but failing miserably. The temptation of my warm bed was too strong, so I only got up properly at sometime past noon. Then, I dragged myself around the house, brushing my teeth and things like that, then watched some TV. Gee, "90210" is such a pitiful attempt at a scandalous television series.

Went for lunch with Dad at "The Cafe Cartel". It was all pretty good. After lunch, we drove over to the dermatologist's for my monthly consultation. Yaadaa yaadaa, went home, it started pouring, went to Orchard Rd alone. Bought a locket, went to Kinokuniya.

I love hanging out at large, posh bookstores. The walls are lined with so many books, it looks like colourful wallpaper. The books are all so crisp and clean and new, I almost feel scared to touch them. They are all grouped by genre. I hung out mostly around the walls marked "Literature". Wanted to buy so many books, but only had "so much" money with me, so I chose "Love in the Time of Cholera" by that Colombian author (can't remember his name). I wanted to buy several of his books, but felt that "Love in the Time of Cholera" was what I wanted most. I've read part of the book before, but it was annoying because I couldn't read fast enough, all of it in two weeks, before returning it to the library.

"Love in the Time of Cholera" is a beautiful book/movie. Seriously romantic. I know you guys don't read much and hate to plough through thick books (apart from Jodi Picoult (sp?) and "Twilight"), so watch the movie instead. It still captures the romance and feelings of anguish and longing.

I haven't played "Monkey Island" for so long, I feel like I'm about to die. I'm shrivelling up! Gahh! Oh, Guybrush, MapleStory is nothing compared to you!

My dear Rabbit is ill again, its inner eyelids are inflamed. I told it time and time again not to go into dusty places! Went to the vet to get the eyedrops (Rabbit had this illness before), and am applying the eyedrops and cream to its eyes 3 times a day. It hates it but tries not to struggle. After medication, it licks my hand in gratitude.
Such a lovely boy.
