I don't feel like wasting my time

I am suddenly at a loss of what to do with my free time before I set off for farm attachment next Monday, and that's so silly. There are options like going to the library to borrow books back to read, but then I'm worried that I won't have the opportunity to drop by the library to return the books after I come back from the farm and before I go back to singapore. And my attention span is still so short, that I cannot sit still to read a book for more than half an hour. Pathetic isn't it? Then I don't relish the idea of sitting at home all day watching anime either. There's nothing good on TV this weekend either... So I started drawing a few anime characters for fun yesterday and thought up of a few tunes plus look for a dvdripper program to download ... but I still felt that I had wasted a perfectly good day. Couldn't sleep even if I had wanted to cuz my body clock has been perfectly tuned to wake up between 6-7am everyday.

I guess I better stop complaining before friends who are still having exams start bashing me up mentally.

On a lighter note, I actually made a fool out of myself again, as usual, just yesterday when I called to make an appointment to service my car. I told the person over the phone that my car needed its "15km" service when asked which service it was. "you mean 15000km" was the response I got before I even realised my mistake.

I just remembered that it was a friend's birthday tomorrow but I have no idea how to send my well wishes to him. What to do? I wish I would stop remembering people's birthdays... heh heh heh. Some dates just stick in my mind forever even though they ought to have no significance to me. If only I remember the dates of important history occurances as well as I remember birthdays. Which leads me to wonder if it's just girls who are 'talented' at remembering birthdays. I never quite figured out why it's mostly guys who cannot remember things like this. All the main differences that I've heard regarding the female and male brain mechanisms have failed to enlighten me in that aspect. My conclusion therefore is that the male species do not think that details like birthdays are important, contrary to what the females believe (most of them, not all), and therefore they do not bother to allocate such dates to memory. The general impression I then get is that guys would only try to accomplish such a "feat" if it concerns a really really good buddy, of if it's some girl they would like to impress. I know that birthdays are not that big of a deal to some and that practically, it's just like any day other than the fact that 365n days ago, one was born into this world. BUT. I believe that just two words can make that much of a difference in someone's life. It can be seen as a gesture of appreciation of someone, and letting him/her know that he/she's being thought of.

I just realised how idealistic I sound, but even though I admit I do not remember ALL of my friends' birthdays, at least I try my best to! Erm. Perhaps I should also add that whether I remember someone's birthday or not does not signify their importance in my life.
