POST 352.
I am so bored that I want to run right into the sliding door.
Sundays
I'm so bored right now I can't even think of anything to blog about. And then, something struck me. I shall talk about how uninteresting my Sundays can get. So I guess you can say that my very boring Sundays (that I have to bear with, every week) inspired this entry.
Just because the Sunday is the usual "rest" day, it doesn't have to be a boring, pointless day that quite honestly, I'd actually rather go to school than stay home. But that's what it's been each week and it's hell. And to make things even more worse, my macbook keeps hanging on me. I already know it's getting faultier and faultier each day (though I still wonder why) but I never expected it to become so slow. Sometimes when I switch to another tab or another window, safari just hangs for 10 seconds with that colourful circle spinning. Then I end up annoyed.
So a normal boring Sunday would always be, first, I wake up in the morning at around 10, 11. Then, I don't have breakfast and wait till lunch to eat. In the meantime, I'm using my laptop facebooking or maybe syncing videos. In most cases, syncing videos. Then my parents would start preparing lunch and we'd kind of, discuss about what we're going to eat. But let me tell you, it's always either 1. Saizeriya (this cheap italian restaurant with kind of, yummy food) or, 2. Instant noodles. It's very rare we'd eat something else, or somewhere else. So what was the option today? Home, instant noodles. And of course not forgetting the usual - leftover food from last night's meal added into the noodles.
After lunch, my dad would do the dishes and we'd all go back into that Sunday "rest" mood. My mom would lay on the couch flipping through channels, or sleeping. My dad would be on his computer fixing something, my brother would be playing WoW as always and skyping. As for me, I'm still at the same spot since I woke up - at the dining table on the same chair. The only thing that's changed is that I'm now filled, and very, very bored. At this point now, I'm either constantly spamming the apple + r button, or googling some random shit... until almost 6. Why? That's when I have to take a shower. So I am a little more alive by then since I finally have something to do. After showering, it's dinner where there are basically 3 choices. 1. Home cooked chinese food, 2. Sushi, 3. Western. Once we're done with dinner, my dad does the dishes again, and after that everyone would be on the couch, watching TV. My brother and I will be back at our usual spots, (since the time we woke up) using the laptop.
And then we go up to our rooms at about 10 to "sleep". Then, the next Sunday arrives again and the same thing happens again.
Oh and I see I've failed to mention the "studying" part. Apparently, every afternoon, without fail, my dad would say, "Go do some revision now." Without, fail. I can even tell when he's about to do it. Whenever I'm in the "so bored that I am not doing anything on the computer" stage, my dad would tell us that. Always. And then of course my mom would bitch about it at night as well. "Why are you watching videos? Shouldn't you be studying?!" Which, we did already do in the afternoon when dad told us to. And of course she has to say it, "2 hours? It's not enough". Right, guys. I see you're forgetting the point that it's a SUNDAY. In other words, a REST day and F.Y.I, I've kept my grades up pretty well, 44/56. I've done enough studying from Monday to Friday. I'm the one who's staying up till midnight because of work while you are sleeping so don't, ever, tell me to work on a SUNDAY. Oh and if you wondering what was the so called, "root" of why she starting the whole bitching, it was because of the faulty internet. A WTF, moment right there. O:
And so, as much as I appreciate Sunday being a relaxing, "rest" day, really, it's just another of those either very boring, or stupid, pointless weekends where I get nothing but "studying" lecture crap from my parents. (Which is also why I'm so eager to be shipped off somewhere far away after graduating from high school.) Thanks but, spare me the "study right now" thing. It's more than enough that my mom brings that up at least twice during weekdays, I don't need to hear it the whole sunday afternoon.
And I'm done with the "try to be optimistic/counting the days of optimism" plan. As you can see :)
