Fighting Insomnia

It's 1:40 in the morning and I'm wide awake.

I couldn't sleep. I dunno why. I should be dead asleep right now. I'm so tired. I slept late last night coz I talked to Lester on the phone, and then after we talked I didn't immediately go to sleep. Then I went to the mall earlier. Walked for almost three hours. So I should be tired.

The body is weak, but the mind is wide awake.

One thing's for sure, I'd be a walking zombie later at work.

My brother is overprotective of me.

Sometimes it's a nice feeling to know that no one would dare mess with me or else they'll have to answer to my brother.

But often times, he's overprotection is unwarranted. It's so exasperating.

Really. I'm 21 years old. I can take care of myself.

Exit 2003, Enter 2004

There's spring on my step. There's a smile on my face. The dawning of the new year for me seems to bring a new and clean slate. Goodbye 2003. Got a lot of memories with you. You brought a lot of changes in my life. I had bidded goodbye twice to some things so hard to let go: First is on my college graduation where I bid goodbye to the university life, and second when I bid goodbye to my country and my life.

Hello 2004. I wonder what surprises you're bringing with you. No matter if they're good or bad surprises, I am ready to face you. But please, please, please, have mercy on this homesick fella', and try to be a good year for her will ya?

I got exactly 3 and a half hours to sleep before I'm off to work. Darn.
