Insomnia talks...

it's been busy...now it is less busy,

Alhamdulillah my thesis writing was completed. that's the mother of all headache. it's done. yipee! though we got mixed review from our supervisor, i can only hope that we would be confident and knowledgeable enough to fight off all the queries during the research presentation.

to celebrate our freedom, we indulge ourselves with dinner at wang solo ayam penyet and new brand of frozen yogurt in town - Snoggurt. yummy.



yummy. this is mango+chocolate yogurt. it gives of sour and sweet combination. taste just about the same as Tutti Fruiti. A+ for the interior decoration of the shop. comel sgt!

me with sleep deprived face. just look at those eye bags. aiyoo..anyway, they have this section with sofa that looks like a bed- I guess, don't exactly know how to describe it one thing for sure, it was very cozy.



 It was a huge relief when the presentation was postpone caused i'm not in my best state right now. Insomnia had kicked in. Insomnia was history... unfortunately, history was doomed to be repeated.  It's been a week, being an owl. I only slept after 7 am. my ability to focus plummeted. Basically, any information that I gain goes to my short term memory 'inbox'. That is not a good sign. Especially when final exam is coming.

Staying up is not good. it alters your metabolism- you'll tend to eat more ergo, easily to gain weight; it messes with your ability to focus on daytime and worst of all, you'll end up having eye bag with 'panda' eye effect.

So what I did during those wee hours..?
I tried few things to induce sleep. warm drinks, counting sheep, pretend to sleep. Nothing works. I decide to be productive. Open my laptop, read some long nursing journal to bored. I got bored, but not sleepy. huh.

Since i was stressed up with my inability to sleep, i develop a different way of coping with stress. it's weird because i think, i always resort to different way to cope with stress. anyway, what i did is I browse for youtube and click on any interesting video that I can find.

A clip video got my attention, an interview session of Johnny Depp. I was weirdly attracted to know more about him. His choice of acting and the way he views the world and himself are interesting. then one video led to another and I end up studying about him rather then my notes. haha. it doesn't end there. I google all the movie he ever did, download some of it and watch it whenever I can't sleep. so far, I've watched The nightmare on Elm street, Edward the Scissorshand, then Willywonka and the Chocolate factory, Sweeney todd: the demon barber, the sleepy hollow and the latest is Dark shadows. currently, on my way to download Public Enemy.  

Depp as Barnabas Collins: a fishery tycoon cursed into vampire in Dark Shadows. a horror comedy film. it's fun to watch. credits


Halfway through, I stumble upon another interesting thing to watch,. ever heard of a series called Night Vision? they used to aired on tv3 early 2001. it's a horror series that i loved to watch. now i'm watching them again. I just love horror movies.




oh please...this way of coping is not helping at all! it only get my insomnia worse. 
This need to end this soon.
