9:42 pm
to put it simply, i wasn't in the best of moods for chinese new year this time round.
for one, i think it's excusable that i don't want to get up from bed at 9 or 10am like i do whenever i don't have lesson, given the fact that i was drained for the past few days because of school projects.
but nooooooo~ my mother had to act as if i had committed some crime by literally getting out of bed at almost 12pm.
in actual fact i was already up at 9.40am but i feel like lazing around since i don't have to worry about schoolwork for the time being. so i took memoirs of a geisha to my bed, lay down and read until almost 12pm, which was when my parents and my younger sister came back from the beach (at least that's where i thought they went..). moments later, i got scolded for not being awake enough to get up when i woke up and was treated as if i would never get my ass off my bed.
dammit! i was tired! can't you cut me some slack?!
anyways, being bored because the real event on the eve of chinese new year doesn't start until dinner time, i sat in front of my laptop and played MapleStory until 4pm.
normally i would have sat there, my ass glued to my chair and my eyes stuck to the screen but i was starting to have a headache to i went to lay down on my bed and ended up asleep.
well, under normal circumstances, a sleeping person wouldn't be able to hear anyone calling out to him/her until being called a few times in a row. plus my door was closed as i had turned on my air-con.
and my father had to act as if i was some spoilt brat that needed some crappy red carpet to be laid out before i could be escorted out of my room when i actually was too asleep to respond to the calls that dinner was ready.
like hello? if you don't know what's going on then don't jump to stupid conclusions. wth is wrong with people nowadays..
seriously, i think this is a very bad start for the lunar year and stuff but to heck with it, it's not like i give a damn anyways. superstition has never been in my system and never will be.
what kind of life doesn't have it's ups and downs? i've had my fair share of it and going against the flow makes things more interesting.
when i have the energy for it, in any case.
by the way, happy chinese new year, people. hopefully everyone else had a better day than me.
