Exams are over. Although the stress of exams is gone, somehow, I still feel quite tense. *sighs* Somehow, the monotonous cycle of everyday life at home, with nothing much to do (other than packing stuff and reading Agatha Christie books) seems to things around me dreary and boring. No kudos to the bright and sunny weather outside for driving away my ideal dark, cool and moist (in other words optimal-conditions-for-fungus-to-thrive) weather. =( Aiya! So sad! I have to inject some sense of purpose and EXCITEMENT into my life! Going to the movies doesn't excite me. Unless its those insightful movies which will profoundly affect my way of thinking, stimulate me intellectually, etc. I'm unsympathetic to superfluous portrayals of angsty teenage relationships and phantasmagoric depictions of the human emotions.
Oh, but I don't mind going to the National Library. In fact, I would love to go there! =D! I would take the lift from the highest floor all the way, (not stopping unless someone just happens to take the lift in the middle of my journey to the the centre of the earth) to ground level and go squealing with fear and excitement, watching myself plummet from metres above the ground (this is a (literally) cheap substitution for the ubiquitous theme park ride which brings you up 10 storeys high before plunging you down)! Well, other than the short-lived excitement I can get from the lift, I should be able to derive satisfaction from the books that I've borrowed! XD! Yay! Ok, so I've decided that I should go to the National Library when I can. Oh yeah, before I forget, I have to remind my father of his promise to let me see a sunset by the sea by the end of this year. This would be his birthday present to me. =) Although I don't mind going to any place to see my sunset by the sea, I wonder what the possibilities are to view it at the boardwalk in Raffles Marina. I first went there for a wedding held in the evening. There was this boardwalk extending near the wedding venue, with sailboats or little ships beside it, out to the sea, ending at a lighthouse. It was beautiful walking on the boardwalk, seeing only the sky in front of you and hearing only the sound of waves. The evening sun covered the whole sky. It was like walking into the sunset. Ahhh... *sighs dreamily* Maybe I'll take a ride on the Singapore Flyer and see Singapore's skyline. I've heard that it's nice. =D! You know downtown, there's this capsule with each end attached to some sort of rope. You sit in it before being propelled high up into the sky. I think it's supposed to give one the thrills while viewing the city's skyline but I think I'll only see the contents of my stomach if I go on a ride like that.
*sighs* I think I'm going bonkers. I've decided to inject life into my life. I'll start with window shopping down Orchard Road. (Although I can't say I love shopping).
