| | my mum has flown off to japan for a holiday which she won at some great singapore sale lucky draw at marina square, leaving me, my dad and dino to keep house back home.
it sounds silly but i miss my mum already. my dad is asking if i know how to operate the washing machine and whether we should just send our clothes to the laundry. of course, i don't miss my mum for the undone housework, but for the fact that somehow, it really takes all of us to make home feel the way it is supposed to feel.
i strained my neck/back/shoulder area pretty badly and i've been to two sinsehs over the past 2 days to try to get it fixed. the first one i went to tried acupuncture which left my left hand feeling numb and weak, the second one, which my dad brought me to, gave me a massage that made me want to reel around and beat the living daylights out of him. and at the end of the day, the pain's still there, slightly alleviated but still, irritatingly so, there.
i already have 3 different brands of muscle rub and 2 different kinds of medicated plasters. i smell like a bloody chinese medicinal hall.
it's the second week of the airborne course and next week, we jump. there's duty this saturday, which i'm not exactly looking forward to, but oh well. most of the free time i have is spent resting because the course really drains me physically. when training ends at 6 and after dinner is all done, the first thing i do if i'm not sitting around talking cock is to lie on my bed and stay there for the rest of the night till dawn.
it's funny but it's almost therapeutic in a way, and the bunk has become something i look forward to at the end of each day.

i'm so tired in more ways than one, and because we're only human, we're destined to be haunted by the very things that we once thought we'd let go of. because we can never fully let go of something, unless something else comes along for us to hold on to.
