The weekend after...

Ugh... I woke up this morning with a slight chill. I think it's because I
got caught in the rain slightly yesterday (yes, my immunity is that low),
and also possibly because I've had two late nights in a row (slept at 5am
both nights). First night was my birthday celebration followed by a mamak
session thereafter; second night I went for a midnight movie
(Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Hilarious!!!) followed by a mamak
session thereafter. I had lots of personal errands to do today, but I
overslept and woke up later than I wanted to. Sigh... Still, I didn't wake
up too late, so I managed to get to The Curve before noon.

Tried to call a friend who's in Amway on the way there because I wanted to
restock on my echinacea, but couldn't get through to her. Had to hope that
my chill didn't get worse.

Bumped into a friend when I was at Tesco's, and ended up having lunch with
her and her kids after I did all my personal shopping. Had full intentions
after that of going home to nap when another friend who was feeling peckish
paged me and so ended up going for another round of drinks... back at The
Curve. I know The Curve and Ikano Power Centre so well now... except of
course that I happen to refer to both as The Curve, to the confusion of
people I talk to. They're the same to me, because I park in one place, and I
just cross the road to the other.

Somehow managed to stave off the impending flu, so I'm feeling not too bad
now. Not sure how I'd feel tomorrow though. I hope I don't get sick, I can't
take a day off work, it will upset my lesson plans for my students.

Just realised that my two birthday celebrations this year have something in
common - in both parties, there are four persons of one gender and one of
another. With my fellow teammates at the studio, there were four girls and
one guy; with my former school friends there were four guys and one girl.
Yeah, I'm the kind who likes to find similarities or pair up logic as much
as I can, I've been like that all my life. I can tell you a lot more silly
little logical sequences I have discovered over the twenty-something years
in my life. I'm good at logic with numbers (not logic with mnemonics; that
needs a lot of general knowledge, something I'm too lazy to equip myself
with) - I once took this supposed IQ quiz in a software form someone had
written and was going around the Internet; but it was all logic with numbers
and shapes, so I think it was a biased IQ test because IQ tests usually
consist of several different types of questions. ANYWAY, I finished the test
under the time given and I scored almost the maximum score. I can't remember
the score now and I don't know where I put the software. I just remembered
that they had a few different scales for the results, and you'd think the
highest on the scale was genius, but mine was above the genius - they
classified me as Extra-terrestrial. Hahaha!!! But of course, this
wasn't a qualified IQ test. If I took any other proper IQ test, I'd fall
into the average category.

Hmph. I think I spoke too soon. I'm sniffing again. Argh!
