As some of you may already know,im currently following my so called "Hibernation TimeTable".It involves the length of time everyday when i will be hibernating.Well,im not exactly in a winter country.In fact,the country where i am at now is situated a few degrees to the North of the Equator 24/7.So why am i hibernating?

1.Men are animals.We need to hibernate too.
2.I turn on the air conditioning to stimulate a winter country.
3.Sleeping is good for your body.
4.Dreaming opens up possibilities for imaginations and blog entry ideas.
5.I wont get a lot of chances for sleeping from now till the As.
6.Im tired.
7.Im very very tired.
8.Im better off dead.

Anyway,so i sleep half the day away and stay up till really late at night.I dont know why,but the day seems to be turning itself upside down for me.I dont even know when my day begins and when it ends nowadays.I know thats bad.They say that staying up late is bad for your body,but who cares.People have fun drinking or partying,while i have fun sleeping.Isnt it amazing that i am still as thin as a bamboo after all that eating and sleeping?It might be envious to some,but i guess the part of the genes from my father did not pass on to me(Thank god).Therefore,my hours awake are short,and those times are taken up by computers,TVs,guitars,eating.Well,i call that "Absolute Relaxation and Retardation"(Retardation in this case means an abnormal slowness of thought or action).Aside from some emo feelings at night which i always get,im basically recieving everything that comes to me without processing it.Yeah,i feel like a dead corpse.But the weird thing is,im lovin' it.

There are so many things i want to do after the As.Finish my book,which has been left aside for school work.Perhaps i should type a script,which is much more efficient and requires less skills.I want to travel the world.Fine,maybe i havent got the time,but at least one country outside Singapore.This place is making me grow moulds so thick its spoiling every mower i bought.I want to write enough songs for a CD.Not that i want to burn a CD and sell it or whatever.I just want a reasonable target,and the number of songs in an average CD seems rational.Of course,continue to type lots of blog entries(I love typing blogs.Its almost like im typing a book that has no end).I want to jam with my friends,possibly with the band again(The Locomotohomomonos).When i say "Jam" i mean "JAM".Anything other than those are just optional.There,ive said it.Goals?I wont consider them goals.In fact,i hate to call them goals.After all,goals are dreams(But dreams are not goals),and how often do dreams come true?I prefer to call them "Things To Do".Anyhow,before the As are here,and before the intense studying starts again,i shall continue my Hibernation Timetable,and follow it with discipline.Goodnight.
