*Sigh* School will be back tomorrow. I'm not exactly looking forward to it so... *sigh* I've got that horrible horrible feeling again whenever it's the day before school. Tomorrow's schedule is... 8.45am for Student Comm, then 3pm would be time for lessons StoPP (probably storyboarding and project pitching) taught by my least favourite lecturer (so far... who knows what the future might bring?) So I have a lot of 'free' time... I was hoping that there would not be any StoPP tomorrow but so far, there are no mails indicating as such.
I'm still clinging to hope that an email will come sooner or later but I doubt it will... but maybe... just maybe...

2nd week
Monday, 6 April 2009
Bad news! Bad news! It's already the second week of the short short holiday (for design school anyway). We have the block system which... eats away a lot of our holiday time and so... we only have 3 weeks of holidays before the new semester starts. And it's already the second week! Oh my god! I'm not particularly glad that I'm going back to school. I'd rather be bored at home than be busy in school. But, the truth is that the break will eventually end and I WILL have to go back to school regardless...
I have no idea why, but I was REALLY tired yesterday night, probably because 2 of my sisters are using the laptop and I don't have any modes of entertaining myself. So, I went to sleep at around 8+pm. Strangely enough, I wake up not feeling any much 'refreshed' as when I sleep at 10+pm (which is my usual bedtime), and honestly, I feel a little... 'still in sleep mode'-ish right now.

My family went to pay our respects to my grandfather at the cemetery yesterday, it is an annual chinese thing. My parents got back rather late so we left home at around 6++pm and by the time we had reached the cemetery, it was around 7pm (I think). When I got off my dad's lorry and stepped onto the ground of the cemetery, I felt rather dizzy - probably as I was sitting in 'goods' compartment of the lorry (along with my elder sister and my youngest sister) and... So, we 'unloaded' the stuff and got to where my Grandpa was at. Scanning the area, all I could see was... grave after grave after grave. Well, duh, since it's a cemetery.
But since there weren't any tall buildings that are blocking the view, you could see a very large portion of the sky. I think that I had spent awhile staring into the sky before actually helping out with the things that needed to be done. My dad arranged all the things in front of my grandpa's tombstone, things like food - chicken, duck, pork and stuff. Then we offered joss sticks, folded joss paper, offered more joss sticks, folded more joss paper and finally, one last offering of joss sticks before we burn all the joss paper we had folded. I believe that was around 8.30pm or so. The area has gotten dark since there weren't any streetlamps around, and the only thing illuminating the area were the flames and the light reflecting off the moon. After that, we packed and left for home.
When I got home I was very very sleepy. So, after eating dinner and brushing my teeth and stuff. I fell asleep almost immediately upon reaching my bed.
