SLEEPSWEETSLEEP

What does it feel like to be able to automatically wake up at 7am, realising you can still go back to sleep, then again at 9.15am, and AGAIN at 10.30am? Good. I could sleep up to noon, in fact, 'cos I'm supposed to meet Baby in school at 1.30pm. Obviously I couldn't go on sleeping any further at 10.30am. What's even funnier was I thought it was 11.30am until I got out of my room and saw the clock in my living room screaming (with its hour and minute hands) 10.30am.

If only school can be like this everyday hey. But I'd prefer a super early lesson and the rest of the day nothing. Which is what happens on Mondays and Fridays for me. Ok, don't kill me. Be nice!

Update on car. The "arrival date" has been delayed. My dealer called my place this morning to say it'll only come on Tuesday but Mummy was telling him how it's impossible for me to go down with her on Tuesday to get the car 'cos I practically have classes the whole day on Tuesday. Hence, the dealer tried negotiating with I-dunno-who and called back saying we can pick it up on Monday after 1pm. WOOHOO! Time to get some driving done. Hopefully I'm still ok with it heh. Been almost 4 months since I last drove.
