Boredom Strikes Back

I am having a long week of Leave since two days back.
I will only be starting work again on next Wednesday,
which also happens to be my 2nd last working day.
My final day of National Service is somewhere in late January so I won't be bothered by it so much for now.

To be away from work is always a sensation for people who are feeling sick of it,
especially for NSFs like myself.
We would rather wait for hours in a medical centre than staying back in the company doing shitloads of crap.

However,
resting at home too much may soon be a problem for me.
Waking up late and then finding out that it is raining outside totally withdraws the mood of going out. By the time it stopped raining, the sky would be turning dark.
Since I do not want to waste a day away just like that, I would then console myself by thinking of slacking later in the night.
But it turned out that I got lazier by the hour and felt staying indoors would be a better idea.

Now I truly know what Brandon is going through,
since he is the elite lone ranger from Jobless.com

There was once whereby Brandon couldn't take it anymore.
Apparently, he was in a state of losing self-consciousness.
Yesterday morning at around 3plus AM, he sended me a SMS.

'Tomorrow (which means later in the afternoon) you wanna go Queensway or not?'

I was greatly disturbed when I first saw the message.
Brandon isn't the type who will go around asking people to go shopping.
He is definitely not the kind who will even suggest a place that far considering his extreme laziness. It did occur to me that this might be the work of the Devil.
He could somehow be possessed or something.

Even though he's no longer the Brandon I once knew, it's not going to change the fact that somebody was willing to accompany me there.
I have long suggested Queensway for a quite some time and was turned down by Brandon himself without any hesitation.

The real Brandon or not,
I am going Queensway for sure.

I replied him.
'Tomorrow then see how lor.'

The next message that I received was even more unbelievable than the first.

'No. You wanna go then Confirm NOW.'

Wa lao.
That was too fucking insane for me to handle.
3 plus in the morning and planning ahead.

I was fine with it so I told him 'OK' and confirmed a timing of 2 pm to meet up.
He wasn't Brandon to me at that moment of time already.
Probably someone else communicating with me.

Either Bryan or Don.

I went to sleep with a satisfied smile on my face knewing that at least I would be doing something more meaningful the next day.

Brandon messaged me 7 plus in the morning after that.

'Eh, just now I couldn't sleep.'
'I going to sleep now, wake up then call you again.'

For sure I knew what was going to happen.
The mood wasn't there anymore and I stayed at home the whole afternoon.

Well...
Not for now.
I am going out soon and getting Ivan's rented car later.
It's gonna be slightly less boring for me till then.

Ciaoz.
