Sleep Interrupted

I had intended to sleep till afternoon today but was woken up by a collegue before 8.
The very same woman seemed to have an allergy to the medicine she was given 2 days ago.
Yeah, she called me up while I was at the supermarket (I was not working that day either) to ask my about the location of hospitals where she is..... WTF.
She was out travelling at this random place where I need to jog 20 minutes to get on a 25 minutes ferry and then drive for random minutes (and I do not drive). Meaning I have no f...... idea about hospitals there simply because I do NOT go there unless they sent me, with transpot all taken care of. Duh.

I wonder what was she thinking, that I am an omnipotent being and that I know everything at my fingertips?
Even so, I need a break!

And I thought people of the land of freedom or something like that are very independent.
Looks like I'm wrong, and they have no common sense either.
Isn't asking someone around the area much more efficient than calling up someone miles away?

Back to sleep.

Random surfing and saw this comment on a post. I think he is right.
I took the liberty of editing a tiny bit.


I’ve always had this romantic notion that S will eventually evolve into a virtual community. The physical S will never be the one we would recognise due to extreme changes that will take place in order to sustain the economic survival of the country.

Srens do share common passions. We love the interaction and keeps in close proximity with fellow Srens. We will remember the bond forged by sharing the common nationality of being Sren. We will treasure the precious memories of our time in S. However, that is as far as we can go. We will just be a constantly migrating tribe, always looking that perfect place but yet keeping it all together as a niche community of being Srens.

Our inter-personal bond is unbreakable, but on a level of national patriotism? Its non-existence. We treasure the people, not the land.
