Window A

another tiring day! sheesh.. reached home at 9 today... all time low :/ but pretty fun i guess :D got to see aman's really *really* pretty ugly pufferfish which i think can't puff at all haha... hilarious :D cept i don't think it was hilarious for the fish? cos it was freezing cold in the classroom.... and they had no jackets :/

hmmm. was walking on the grate (the thingies on top of the drains to keep you from falling in? yups) and remembered sthg my mom once told me that has somehow stuck in my mind and has coloured all my perceptions about drain grates: this took place in malaysia somewhere... my aunt's friend was walking along the road when a rusty grate fell in while she was stepping on it... and there just so *happened* to be a sharp pokey rusty object in there and it skewered her from vagina to chest... piercing a few major organs along the way... i think i was like 10 when i heard this story... it has freaked me of ever walking on grates tho i must confess there is a certain (cheap) thrill in walking on something that remotely resembles an oubliette :D [oh. btw. i only recounted this story cos aman stoutly refused to listen to me say it on our way home today... so must say it somewhere :]

have decided that's it's horrible walking home on a moonless cloudy night alone... or rather it's horrible walking home on a moonless cloudy night. period. crossing the field on a dark night with chameleons and whatnot streaking across me and aman's paths calls for tons of shrieking.
