那天在马路上
就是我们幸福的开始

So I grudgingly woke up a little after 8 in the morning to prepare for school. Mum's on the way to NUH for blood test so I got a lift. Handed up the damned 14page assignment, went to the arts canteen to have a cup of milo and and some bread, and then set off for the forum bus stop, the designated waiting place for the IMH trip.

The bus was early. I was early and the bus was there. Then the bus left. And it didn't come back till a little past 10. We only left at 1015, 30mins after expectation. On the bus the girl in charge tried to pump up the crowd, but nobody breathed a word, and I don't know why she picked on me to answer her questions. Haha. She then claimed she's making a fool of herself and then jokingly said she's not gonna talk to us as she sulk back into her seat. Real cute. Haha.

We had a lecture on EPIP, early psychosis intervention programme.

What is Psychosis you ask?
Ahh I know I know. It is when people suffer from hallucinations and delusions. Each time it occurs is termed as a psychotic episode. It affects 3% of all people in a life time, and the mean duration of untreated psychosis in singapore is 3 years. It is most likely to occur in young adults.

Think my dad was something like that. You have to believe it. Maybe that's where all my paranoia and dumb sh*t come from. I hope I turn out fine.

Later we went to take a little walk around the place. There was this old malay man on a wheelchair by the wall, who kept waving at me whenever I looked at him. I turned around to make sure it wasn't someone behind me, so I waved back and smiled. And he waved and smile. And I waved and smile. And he waved and smile. The guy walking beside me told me to stop it or I'll become like him. heh heh.

The heritage room was nicely set up, showing us the history and some stuff like the old masterkey to all doors or a straitjacket. Throughout the walk we saw quite a few people and I overheard the girls saying they can't differentiate who's ill and who isn't actually. Hmm I agree. And I also realised what a huge place this is, and the amount of capital the government inputted. Kudos PAP!

Was supposed to meet my project partner to do project, but he couldn't make it last minute. So I spent an hour plus reading 2003: THE YEAR IN PICTURES in borders. And I bought a VCD! "The experiment". Some old german show about a makeshift prison set up with male participants hired to play prisoners and guards, and the implications which started.
Sounds so like those stuff I read in sociology, so I figured it would be a nice insightful show.

AND!! This book was on offer! Only $11 !!!!!!


It cost about $30 originally. Yes!! my second Calvin and Hobbes book! And the continuation of my dream that someday I'll have the entire collection!! I have already read every single book. I just wanna own them now!
