my haven

my haven**


the place where all brain and bed activity takes place *wink* SLEEP lah.

bu yao xiang wai, hao bu hao?

i love my room so much that if you installed a toilet, fridge and a tv in it, i would never leave.

i love my room so much that if/when i get married (i can't think too far into the future) i'm gonna get my husband to move in.

i love my room so much that if i ever move, migrate or whatever, i'm packing it up into boxes and bringing it along with me.

i've been pretty uninspired these days, given all the upcoming (and unecessary) flurry concerning everything that i would like to be distanced from- school. spending time alone really makes you go a bit crazy. i think the time spent talking to myself has gone wayy beyond the max. limit. i'm almost my own third person in the conversation. haha.

anyway, time alone has its merits. i guess. ie: sitting alone on benches [add in: pathetically] while lecturers talk to you out of PITY because they always seem to catch you when you're waiting for someone, ALONE. people have started asking,"eh.. why are you always alone ah?" i'm even considering giving my split personality/3rd person a nickname so that when i talk to myself, at least i can refer to myself by another name. you know, so people won't think i'm weird or anything. like DUH. hmm.. how about tess? delia?

i've discovered an AMAZING solution to this problem. 99% success rate!

to make things easy for you, i'll break it down.

how to have a conversation with yourself:

#1 put phone in silent mode
#2 lift phone to ears.
#3 greet thyself
#4 talk about anything you want
tip: talk about where you are, what you're doing, use real life events for that touch of realness.
#5 talk, smile, laugh
tip: always remember to include moments of silence. nodding also helps.
#6 during the silence, collect your thoughts and plan what to say next
tip: if you run out of things to say, just keep nodding. keep a preoccupied face.
#7 when you spot signs of life (friends) in the area, quickly end the conversation
tip: use the usual,"i'll get back to you later" "gotta go" "take care"
#8 the simple things usually work the best
#9 walk towards the signs of life
#10 you are safe

WARNING: what to do if your phone starts ringing (for real) during your pretend conversation

#1 stay calm
#2 don't scream
#3 don't ignore it either
#4 say,"is it yours or mine?"
#5 "i think it's my second line."
#6 "i'll call you back."

see. easy peasy.

your own do-it-yourself imaginary conversation. free of charge!

warning: please do not attempt the above mentioned without any prior experience. it could result in severe embarrassment. results vary with the individual. practice makes perfect.

if you are interested in having a conversation with yourself: these are even more reasons to get you started TODAY!

#1 if you see someone you HATE
#2 if you're avoiding someone
#3 if you're all alone in business school
#4 if you're walking in a secluded area (pretend you're talking to a friend who is a policeman)
#5 if you're waiting for someone
#6 if you want to improve your mother tongue
#7 if you see people (maggie&manga) around
#8 if you want to make your boyfriend jealous (for special instructions: call me)
