weirdest yet.

*plays X-files music that gives this kinda feel o.0*

So I was trying to sleep, feeling cold and hot at the same time. wondering if I was falling sick. Trying to get to sleep. And then, I did.

And then, I woke up. In an extremely automatic fashion, I got up, put on my specs, clipped my fringe back, ( and could have wondered why it was still quite dark) and switch the lights on, grabbed my towel. Reached for the toothbrush, and toothpaste. And glanced at the clock, thinking, 'hmm so what time did I just manage to wake up?'

It was 3 am.
3 am.

I must have looked really like this : o_O
"huh?!??!?!"
opened the door just to confirm, it was dark. as dark as 3 am should look like.
The weird things were, I didnt wake up from my alarms. And even if I did, I was usually extremely sleepy and lethargic and wanting to sleep just some more. And then, it was also really out of my control. Like, the routine of things. I promptly got out of bed, and before I really knew it, I was heading out of the room. HmMmM. And I was wide awake. No hint of tiredness. well, that is, until I realised it was 3 am and I really Needed to sleep.

It reminds me of the French film Amélie. The grocery shop boss was really mean, so she screwed up things in his apartment abit. He opened his store at 5am, with no one on the streets, and it was still dark. o.O

Weird.
It's as if I had some huge purpose. Something that snapped me AWAKE and made me Go.
but nothing obvious. There was no one I needed to pull from over the ledge or persuade not to jump, no urgent bursting need to answer nature's call, no desire to throw up, no nothing.

Exams give me the weirdest dreams, weirdest.. things. Two weeks ago, the night before the last paper of the week, I had a nightmare. I dreamt that our lecturer (who taught today's exam module, in fact) had tricked some of us, and was going to murder us. There was me, Zhiqing, another anonymous guy from hall, and Graham (what's he doing there? o.O). So we were apparently playing some find-items-to-complete-the-task kind of game. We were upstairs in a small room, in some unused house. It was broad daylight, the sunlight shone in from everywhere possible cuz there were no closed windows. So, it wasn't dark and eerie like our little film elective taught that low lighting meant something fishy was going on. No, it wasn't. It was as bright as angelic settings.
So the game was that, up in the room, we had to make something work. We had to go downstairs, to search for only one item that we think might help. Only one at a time, and one item at a time. So somehow we did some strange vigorous activity before that, and we all had weak jelly legs. It was Really difficult to walk properly. Like, as if we ran up a million flights of steps. So it was my turn to go down. And I couldn't find anything. There were stuff left around; I remember seeing a pencil, and, gulp, a jar of thick red blood. But I couldn't find anything that might work, so I wanted to make my way up again.
And all of a sudden, I hear Graham run down, shouting, yet trying to keep it as low as possible. Calling for me, saying 'he' betrayed us! He's going to kill us! So I figured to keep as quiet as possible, trying to get to the stairs so that Graham knew where I was. And Then, my lecturer came running the other stairs, shouting for me and looking for me, searching to kill me. And he sounded really mad and psychotic-killer-like.
AHHHH!!!
weirdest of weirdest. somehow Graham managed to escape from upstairs without my lecturer knowing. Of course, I didn't know what happened to Zhiqing and the other guy. I would never know. ............ Haha.
I think I was too freaked out by exams.
A murderer. But when I told YY and ZQ, they were like, ya he COULD look and sound like a psychotic murderer. and ZQ was just a little traumatised at the fact that I didnt know what happened to her, that she might have been brutally murdered back upstairs. Ha. And Graham was worried that he was some bad guy in the dream. o_O

So, today was the last paper. I know I should be really exhilarated over the 'freedom' but I just know I have alot of things to do after this. So.. yay.
