A day in our lives

It would be wrong to say the phone rang; there was no sound whatever that morning. But someone was calling me on the phone. The phone shows an unknown number; I stared at it for a while. Lei was still asleep. Of course I could not have picked it up. Not this early in the morning.

The cell phone rang 18 times more, from three different numbers. Who would want to reach me this desperately? When Lei woke up I told him about the calls. He threw me a look that clearly said his annoyance, "Why didn't you wake me up, you moron?". He was quite worried; something bad might have happened and someone was trying to get the news across. He tried calling back the numbers. The first one didn't picked up. The third one didn't either. But the second didn't picked up. This perplexes Lei for a while. I told him not to worry, it must be nothing important

All of us were awake by then. Cloud was rubbing his eyes, looking still sleepy, Lei took wind for his breakfast. While there, the phone rang suddenly ( but silently). It was the second number. Lei picked it up: the call was just to let us know that our mother has reached City A and going to City B. Which I already knew as I talked with her only yesterday night.

Wind managed to spill food on his shirt. Again. Lei is telling him off to be more careful. Ice is talking how irresponsible the whole of us is and some of us needs more growing up. The day was otherwise uneventful. Lei promptly took up his huge book he has been reading these days. Wind is watching Naruto/Bleach/One Piece; I don't know which. Ice was doing laundry, Cloud is on the phone. He hogs the phone all day long. I don't know how he can stand that offending contraption.

We all have classes today, some of us have the same ones and others different. The first class, as soon as I entered the classroom, I felt the air stale, the air conditioner circulating the same stale air repeatedly. And all the doors and windows were closed. I felt claustrophobic but Cloud calmed me down, that nothing is wrong with doors and windows being closed, and that I was just being paranoid. And here I am, not listening to the prof, but writing this post. Oh, wait, the prof just ended the class early. Got to go :)

Indolently blissful: Just being myselves

Here I am, exulting with indolent energy bubbling inside me. I have never been this free since... I have forgotten when; A whole week to do whatever I want to do! What better way to indulge then talk about myselves!

I have done a few things this week! Some things which I should have done long ago, where as others I should have never done. But do I regret? Not a bit.

My thoughts are disarranged at the moment, and leaps from one thing to another in matters of seconds. Like I have written and deleted many things which was suppose to be here but aren't any longer now.

But there is one thing that I wanted to talk about: this modern contrivance called the mobile phone. It is driving me crazy. Maybe it is just my poor man's cell phone, but everytime it rings ( actually it never does, it just vibrates, otherwise I would have thrown it out of the window long time ago ), it disturbs my the little tranquility which I have managed to attain after much arduous endeavour. Naturally, it sets me in a foul mood before I pick up the call, and could not be my natural sweet self. Fortunately, one of my alter ego, takes over me as soon as I hit the 'pick' button, saving the person on the other end from his ear being bitten off by yours truly. It is nice to have alter egos.

I have a handful of them. Lei is a Piscean; always moody and philosophical, you can't get a straight word from him that does not reek of philosophy. Cloud is a Libran, always indecisive but passionate, Ice is, I think, a scorpio, though he never told me that. Wind is a Gemini, and he always make my head spin with his childish antics. I am, of course, a Leo. There are a few other but they are not here at the present, hence we will talk about them at appropriate times. We can all exist at the same time if we choose to; and unlike Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde none of us are evil, well, mostly we are quite harmless, except for some headache inducing antics and a sharp tongue that can sometimes cut you deeper than Ice blades. A certain cold someone is sitting beside me rolling his eyes.

Right now, Lei is reading a book: Golem's Eye. I keep telling him it is boring, but would he listen?He likes fantasy book, that he does. Cloud is in one of his moods, thinking about someone. Lovestruck, I called him. I don't think he even knows I am writing about him. Ice, uh, I think his left eyebrow is permanently stucked up there. He does not like me writing about him. Scorpios. -shakes head- Wind is ... I don't want to know what he is up to. Sometimes he gives me a headache, always doing something childish. He has this comics propped on his lap... It is one of the Calvin and Hobbes one. He is the one who likes all these kid stuffs. I keep telling him to get over it, but he rarely ever listens to anyone. -sigh-

And then there is me, yours truly, busy writing this stuff. Indolently blissful, while his alter egos are engrossed with their own task ( Ice, don't you have something else to do other than giving me that stare?).

We are quite a handful, and never a dull moment passes while we are all together. ( Wind, stop whistling, it is annoying ). God. Sometimes you should listen to us talk. I am the most sensible one of course ( You don't need to roll your eyes, Ice, and you can stop your giggling, Wind, and a clout is coming your way Cloud, if you don't stop mooning over... er... whoever you are mooning for ). God, they are so annoying. But yes, as I was saying, I am the most sensible one, though Ice do come up with some good reasons for us not to do some things. Blame Cloud if we ever develop heart disease; he lets our heart in jeopardy most of the time. Wind is responsible for most of our headaches. Lei just keeps repeating some Wheel weaving and willing thingy, and I haven't the foggies idea what it is about.

Uh, oh, look at the time, it is past time to put Wind to bed. Cloud needs to have his hair cut tomorrow, and Ice needs to buy some fruits he wanted to try out. Lei is complaining to keep quiet, but himself is laughing softly all to himself. He finds the book he is reading funny. -rolls eyes- It is about some wise cracking djinni; it is beyond me why that would be so amusing. Uh, oh, Ice says he is not feeling well. I will get back to you later. Let's see if he is just trying to attract attention or is it really a cause of worry for all of us.

Until then. Farewell.
