8:28 PM

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes,
That call me on and on across the universe,
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they
Tumble blindly as they make their way
Across the universe

Fiona Apple - Across the Universe


Realised that I haven't really blogged in a while so I decided to compile the happenings since the prev. Firstly, I cracked my rib bone when I fell off the ladder and hit the bed frame. It took me a fortnight before I dared to see a doctor about it due to the fear that I will be admitted to the hospital. Thankfully, it was only a hairline crack. Along with osteoporosis medicine and painkillers, the notion of having to stay in the hospital was banished to Neverland.


The second event was even more traumatic. As my dad wanted to cut cost on the car by not sending it for maintenance, the brakes malfunctioned. I crashed into the car in front of me as I was just about to take the exit towards east coast rd. Because the car was out of control, I hit the car in front twice before it managed to stop. Unfortunately, this resulted in a chain collision with another 2 cars in front of that car. Considering all this factors, I was damn lucky to get away with a blue black on the shin. If I was speeding (instead of the 20km/h I was going) or drinking, I dare not even think what would have happened to my legs. I probably could not even make it to my graduation! Since the accident, the fear of driving suddenly was rooted in me. It took me 1 week to overcome it, but I have yet dared to drive "bus 5332" since.
