Has anyone ever encountered a situation so real that it actually freaks them out?
I'm sure we all have.
Either one way or another.
I would say I will always have a sense about things that are going to happen, I know it will, and it's just like waiting for it to come true. Which is a very scary feeling. (At this point, I think it doesn't make any sense but does anyone know what I'm talking about?)
It's not always necessary a bad thing that is going on, but still...if you do know what's going to happen and it does...it's just..................frightening, you know?
As well as deja vu. Like a lot of people dreamt of something totally irrelevant which will actually happen days, weeks or even years later, and it happens exactly how they dreamt of it.

Fresh burst
Of energy...
I didn't get as much sleep as I usually do last night, but then I woke up feeling more awake in a long, long time. (Probably cos I tortured myself in the gym beforehand, and so I slept better since I was more tired than usual.)
People had started to come back from their holidays and the place is getting rowdy again. At least it's not like dead-quiet, and there're more interesting conversations taking place around me. (Instead of the usual stuff about the weather, yada yada yada...)
Don't know what happened but we just stumbled upon this topic today. I was just talking to someone about going out this weekend, and then the rest of the people who were engrossed in a total different conversation suddenly asked me how old I am. Well, I have nothing to hide (yet), so I told them. And it so happened that I'm the youngest there!!!
MUAHAHAHAHA!!!
Dunno why but I had this sudden urge to laugh madly.
*corners of mouth twitching*
I don't mind if I'm the youngest or not, but then it's really rare for me to hang around people my age and STILL be the youngest. Fresh situation for me. A nice change for me to be the "baby" and have no one complain about it. (OK, I do realise that this is not going to last forever, but then...) So I'm determined to make the best of it!
And so, I'm bouncy for the rest of the day.
*****************************
Getting tired of thinking of what to have for lunch (and being broke at the same time...I can't wait for payday...), I decided to make something totally different. OK, not exactly different, but something that I haven't tried making before.
Mixed some minced beef with Quorn and eggs and made meatballs. Made some gravy with capsicum as garnishings, and served it with macaroni.
Doesn't look too bad...but there's just something missing in the gravy. You know, that kind of thick, rich gravy full of flavours other than salt and sugar? (I do have limited stuff in my cupboard but I'm slowly building it up again...)
Any ideas anyone?

Stayin' Alive
Was just watching this "Hits Songs List" on TV. It wasn't your normal R&B or Ultimate Ballad or Love songs or whatever. Rather, it was called "The Top 20 Cheesy Party Starters".
..........................................................................................
-_-"
???!?!?!??!?!!!!!!!????
(That's what exactly went through my mind when I was scrolling through the programmes list in the menu. I cannot believe they actually show something like this on TV.)
Flipped onto the channel...and I saw Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody". Definitely cheesy.
Then...
Bee Gees: Stayin' Alive.
OK lar...I mean I (usually) like this song. So what if it's cheesy? Or so 70s? But I've never thought of the idea of watching this song's MTV. In fact, I didn't even know it HAD an MTV.
It was nothing REALLY impressive...but I never expected it to be that hilarious!
Don't believe me? Watch it then:
Damn funny right?!?!
With high-waisted, super-tight, bell-bottoms and OTT hair.
OH oh oH, and the blinding-white-porcelain-bonded-like teeth.
HAHAHHAAHAHAHAA!!!!

Flashback...
Well...not in THAT sense lar...
Was just looking at the pictures I took when I went back home and came to the ones that I took of our new house. (Technically it's my parents' new house since I don't exactly live there anymore. *sob*)
Everything was so unfamiliar to me. Even the route back home. Drove on a different road towards a different direction from the past 20 years. (I can't believe that I have actually lived in the same place for 20 years already!!!) Didn't know where everything was, had no idea what we have at home, and had no keys to the house anymore. (This is the worst part, man! I ALWAYS had keys to the house!!!) They've sold one of the cars as well...so that means I always have to make sure that I have a car before I make any plans at night.
There're loads more new places in BP that I've never been to before. The area around Jalan Tan Swee Hoe and Convent used to be just made of up trees and grass. But now it's all full of shops and bustling with life even at night. We've got a BP mall in addition to the Summit, and countless other restaurants that we never had before. (OK...it might still be a far cry from KL but then...I think it's pretty good for BP's standards already.)
People have changed so much. How they look like, what they're doing, and where they're going. And we say this every year, but I'm going to say it again. The crowd we get around Chinese New Year just gets smaller and smaller each year. This year, it's almost non-existent (except for Grace, RueyJiun and me). The same goes for our yumcha sessions.
And I've only been away for 18 months. Come to think of it, it's not that long. But it's not that short either. The only difference is I've never realised changes can come so quickly in one place and you'd never have felt it that much if you were always there.
The same thing goes for me, I don't feel like I've changed a lot, but then I got a lot of weird stares when I was out back home, as if I'm foreign. As in not from BP. At the customs as well, both Singapore and KL. One thought I was a tourist from far away and another wondered if I could speak BM.
*sigh*
Wonder how much BP will change when I go back the next time.
