In most gung-fu shows, when the baddie who is no match to the hero needs to knock him out, he lets in some magic tranquilizing fumes into the room. I’ve always suspected that I might have inhaled some of those likes that have everlasting effect. It is too often that I feel so very tired and restless. Then I realize that I may not be the only one plagued with the symptom. Most Singaporeans are no different!
This morning, I actually saw a new colleague walking to the pantry with his eyes closed. Sure, that was a broad path, with little obstacle, but how does he not know that a clumsy being will flash out of nowhere and bump into him? Hey, he should be thankful my eyes were open. For God knows what will happen if my hot water starts dancing…
Then there was this girl I saw on the bus who cannot help but nodded off while texting on her phone. Barely before she finished her message sentence, she fell asleep. My kay-pohness overcame me and I squirmed to see what she was messaging. But my poor eyesight and the tiny font on that nokia phone was not helpful in reading the contents. But I swear that the sentence was incomplete when she fell prey to the spell. Only when the bus jerked, did she come into consciousness and finished her sentence, before slumbering yet again.
While on the 40 mins journey on the tube in Taiwan, my boss fell asleep. When he awoke at the destination, he asked for the washroom. Someone actually comment, “What’s with him?”
Though I managed a smile, I must admit I was drowned in grogginess then too.
Yes. What’s with us? It is not uncommon, while at work, to receive msn messages from people who tell you they are sleepy. I’ve got to confess that I have sent out several of those myself…
This seems quite phenomenal, especially when I am dormant most hours of the day. Something must be wrong. We are actually in a national sianz mood!
Or is it just me again.... *yawn*
Forgive me... it's Monday....
