Monday, July 29, 2002 I love it when it rains at night, just when everyone is getting ready for bed. Although it's about 2 am in the morning, I decided to stay up a little longer just to enjoy the rain, maybe just by the window ledge, smoking a cigarette and thinking about the day. I think that can only be one of the good things that i look forward to from time to time.

I am also not sleeping now cos somewhere at the back of my mind, I know that this is officially the end of the holidays for me. 3 months. 3 months of accomplishing NONE of the things that I had wanted to do. Somewhere at the back of my mind, I'm thinking of prolonging the holidays by refusing to admit the end of the day has come and theres nothign i can do about it.

I'm also in the middle of downloading Finch's "Stay with Me," from the album What it is to burn. I heard so much about it that I have quite high hopes about it. I hope it doesnt disappoint. The download's taking forever! I thought that I will be getting Broadband today but we called the company today and it turned out that they screwed something up and I'll be only getting it come Aug 1. I was actually quite pissed, cos the customer service rep didnt sound very helpful or even sincere in her apologies. But I thought: oh come on, i'm getting BROADBAND, while there is still war and hunger and fighting elsewhere in the world. It sometimes depresses me, and I just want to drop everything and go volunteer somewhere in Cambodia to build a school or something for the kids. But I also know that like most of my plans for the holidays (actually all of them), they are not going to come to fruition anytime soon.
