Wouldn't it be nice?

Morning!

Okay, I know it’s 1 pm… but hey, I woke up early today… at least, earlier than usual… I’m really trying to stop being a nocturnal… aaa, no good, no good… it has been weeks except for a few days which always turned out to be wasted attempts of being normal. I must and I have to sleep at night and do work during the day!!!

In fact, it has been mentioned in so many places in the quran, how night is made as covering for us to rest and day with light for us to work. (ie: An-Naba’)

So, while having my breakfast, ok.. let’s be honest, lunch, or maybe brunch… whatever you call it but obviously it’s not a breakfast… btw.. I just learned how to eat English muffin(?) with sambal… apa?! Biaq laaa… org malaysia ok! And I also just learned how to cook an egg in the microwave… that’s what happened when you are not allowed to cook… oooh, how I miss the challenge of making a perfectly over easy egg… eh, dah terubah tajuk, so yeah, I googled about ‘how to stop being a nocturnal’ and I found this from here.

1.Set a time when you want to be capable of go to sleep.


2. Avoid caffeine (coffee & soda) 4-6 hours earlier this time.


3. Don't do anything stimulating near this time similar to watching tv
shows that you are very into and can catch you excited.


4. Set a time when you want to wake up.


5. Get two alarm clocks for this... place one subsequent to your bed
and the other one across the room.


6. Focus yourself before you dance to sleep that you will wake up
and acquire up when the alarm clocks go bad.


7. (This is the toughest - you will need seriously of will power)
When the alarms go sour, force yourself to get up to turn
them sour and go to the bathroom to swab your face with
cold river.If you can go straight to the shower right away, it would be
much better.


8. When you still consistency like going backbone to bed, try to resist. As days go by following your sleep "schedule", your body will start to find used to shutting down at a certain time and wake back up at a sure time.


9. (This is the most important piece of advice)
On days when you do not enjoy work, wake up at the same
as you customarily would, or 1 hour later at the drastically latest.


Good luck!

Ok, so I got some issues here, I guess no 1 is pretty simple, I do that all the time, in fact for last 2 days, I had put some efforts into it, I tried to sleep early but ended up tossing in bed for hours… that’s a lot more tiring than doing 3d model. Anyway… no2. ? no caffeine? Errr… ya I know it says, 4 hr before bedtime, but…what if I want to sleep at 12, does that mean that I can’t have my tea/coffee as early as at 8 pm… uwaaa!

And no 3? What about autocading and 3d modeling? I’m always into my work? Reading? Trust me, reading rarely makes me sleepy. In fact, if it’s a good book, it keeps me awake. And I don’t have tv in my room, I wish I do because I could fall asleep easily while watching tv, regardless how interesting the show....and… heyyyy, I can’t start counting the sheep at 10 pm… commmonnn… no 4 is okay… but no 5, NO, I can’t do that, I have a roommate. No 6?... errr… okay! 7?... errr, okay…. 8?! Heee.. sounds pretty tough… my bed always looks so yummy in the morning…. So good to ‘tungging buyung’… heee… 9? What?!!! Mummmmm, it’s the weekend.

Oklaaa… common la kiambang, you still have to do it meh. Besides, it’s almost winter and night is longer whatttt… and night is colder, then u get sick sick meh… I should stop ruining my ruined English!

Ok. Actually, I had once managed to quit being a nocturnal, that was a year ago I think. I blogged about it, but can’t be bothered to search for the post. So I can do it. Yeah, yeah… that’s the spirit girl….

*yawn* so sleepy… the sun is so bright and its making dizzy… and sleepy…. Heeee….

Anyone here loves chai? OMG, I found the new Lipton chai latte with honey and cinnamon is pretty awesome… and it goes well with the English muffin and sambal and egg…. Hahaa… what a fusion.

ish! it looks pretty lousy here. its good though, with the sambal!

Wish me best for my current goal to stop being a nocturnal =)... 

* I should stop listening to "wouldn't it be nice" by the Beachboys

Transition

Sometimes I wonder if I would still blog after I go back for good since it always turns out that I don’t really blog whenever I return to Malaysia. I’m back in Melbourne again. Despite everything I said about this place. I'm always thankful that I’m studying here. 8 hours is long enough, can’t imagine going further. Let alone going back during a short winter break like I just did. Haha… However, regardless how good Melbourne is, coming back here is never easy. It is not the place, it’s the transition. Travelling is tiring. Yes, like yesterday, I had to take two flights, one from Penang to KL, then KL to Melb, it is a lot more tiring for someone like me who could barely sleep in a plane. That’s why I enjoy traveling during the day and taking a window seat. I enjoy day dreaming while staring at those fluffy white clouds. Haha.. Weather change changes everything. I had never went back during winter before. So that was my first time experiencing an abrupt change from a...

Willful Ignorance

I was too busy with architecture for the last few weeks.. . haven’t really got a chance to get my head around what’s going on in the world, especially back home in Malaysia. I felt detached from reality. I felt like I was living in ignorance. I felt guilty. Therefore, since I finished my final presentation yesterday (still got 2 submissions coming though)… Today, I decided to take a day off from architecture. I went out for a good lunch with a friend, had some retail therapy… and came back, get on the internet and try to update myself with some of the current issues. I read. I read. I read and I read. As a result. I feel sick. And I still feel guilty, way worse… I feel guilty and hopeless for knowing things I could never really do anything about. I know... I know...I know I’m a little behind. But I still need to put more efforts in understanding the following issues, I’m feeling lost and mentally constipated just by reading one or two news/articles/blogposts about them. 1. ...

Kerja Tak Siap Lagi!

I guess one of the real problem with Malaysian Architecture is it lacks of publication even on the internet. I have been browsing for Malaysian architecture these few days and surprisingly I found that there are many amazingly great projects back home. I stumbled upon many photos of interesting designs that I wish I could dig further for my assignment. But it is frustrating that how brief most of the information is. I also wonder if having a website is such a big deal (expensive, is it?) since not many firms have a website, let alone a good one. Some websites I have to say are not inviting at all. Many use dark/navy blue as the primary color, why is it? I don’t hate blue, but it’s not tasty at all as an architecture website… I also found some real good architects who keep blogs, but the problem with a blog is, it depends on the updates. Therefore, even if it is a current project (since some projects run for years), but if the post was 7 months ago, the blog seems abandoned. Besides, it...
