朽木百哉のブォグ

The past days had been pretty sunny within for me, as I got to know Elaina better. Today is the first day of the "alarm clock duty" where I gave her a morning call, and she sounded so dreamy and reluctant to exit slumber; that tone of her voice at that time was so sweet yet dreamy...

Work had been pretty mind-boggling and did not want to game after I came home, so spent the entire evening chatting with her. With all the topics grasped from all over the place, we could simply chat endlessly without having to worry about running out of topic.

She told me about the "hunter" that had been harassing her but on her accord, I'll just spare "it", but it certainly is unsafe for her to meet "it" alone, for whatever reasons it might be, no matter how nice "it" could say. I certainly wouldn't let anyone harm her.

Evening time just slipped by so quickly and before I knew it, it was almost bedtime. I had a thought of having a short chat with her but she wanted me to save money, so decided not to have a phone chat just before bedtime.

The discomfort in my stomach has vanished; woke up and feeling a massive fatigue over me; must be the one tiding over from the previous day.

Getting ready for another day of battle but would still like to deposit my thoughts here. Just a slight spell of sneezing that came along my awakening.

I had a pleasant surprise this morning when Elaina bought me coffee, but didn't get to talk to her before work started as we had a briefing by our Head prior to work. It certainly is different from the one which I usually take from the pantry.

Work had been quite manageable throughout the day but a strong spell of discomfort erupted in my stomach like a national revolution, which I had suppressed it while on the way home to work. It had to be due to an overdose of coffee today.

The continuation of suppression sustained me till I managed to get home and did catching up on MSN, before meeting my clan for awhile just before bedtime.

Saw myself at an old building which looks like those 40 year old housing estate just like the "Smalltown" in Lim Chu Kang which is now a military training area for our local troops.

There was one scene which I was chasing this couple who looks like "nukers" in the 9 Dragons game and one of their name appearing green and the other orange, denoting their level against mine; was trying to throw a nuke to PK one of them in a place which looks like a grassyland.

Sudden switch to a scene where I was fighting a crook who looks like a middle-aged and refined guy; just like those middle age yet rich guy and the place looks like a high tower amidst a town and when I gave him the final blow, my fist went into his mouth and after taking it out, he said to me in a groan "You have paralysed my throat, I shall tell you where I hid all the treasure" Soon, we were sitting down and talking like old friends and I asked how long does he think, will he be imprisoned for his wrongdoings. He said that he's not sure, so I asked what's his age.

"40" was the reply, so I thought most likely it would be 5 or 10 years and told him that. Another scene shows a girl who was by his side to keep him company and she is the "enemy's girlfriend" who said that she wanted to comfort him before he turns himself in.

I saw myself at a place which resembles the entrance to Bedok MRT station which is opposite the bus interchange, but this time, there were trees above me with broken branches, and I was also there, seemingly awaiting for a bus. Shortly, I saw my ex-agent Christina who was also there at a short distance waiting for a bus, and I moved to a spot where I could not be seen by her. A short memory recall that she came to look for my help as she needed to close some deals to tide over the finanicial difficulty faced at home but I had not agreed to meet her to avoid being persuaded into buying a financial product.

Soon, there were some kind of sticky stuff dripping onto me and I realised that it was coming from the trees; there were oozing out some kind of green, thick liquid and suddenly, I saw my colleague Doris who was telling me to stay away from it but somehow I mentioned that it's okay for a guy to get a little dirty / mucky at times.

After awhile, I was spotted by Christina and she started talking to me and I told her that I didn't have the time and had to go...hoping to catch any bus that brings m away from her.

I boarded a Service 153.

After a short trip which was less than 20mins, I saw myself in an old HDB apartment which reminded me of the place Songjie's girlfriend was staying that was more than 20 years old when she has moved in since 15 or so years ago. Kent came into the picture and strangely, the place was all closed up except for a peep hole which had a slide-cover. I saw some lights and quickly shone my mirror and asked who is that, using the light reflection to capture the attention of the "visitor".

The next scene shows Kent entering the apartment and told me that this place has been quiet since the day he moved into "Fatal Frame" (as what this estate was strangely named so). He also told me about the close shaves that he had when he was seriously wounded, and the doctor telling him that his ear could not be saved but yet miraculously he survived, something to do with "Fatal Frame".

It's been several weeks since I last wrote here after being heavily involved in 9 Dragons, where I've found a clan of belonging and have been playing alongside with Songjie, and old pal of 15 years and his friend Andy, who has guided him to playing the correct way.

The workout this morning was done prim and proper with shower and all well ahead before schedule. Still a little unused to my little keyboard which was given by Songjie as a gift.; he has truly been a nice pal despite there being times that I had been teasing him a fair bit.

Good to know that things are going fine for him and his girlfriend after a year or so separation due to family difficulties. Thought that this is a good time for me reflect my thoughts amist all the hussle and rushing in life; leaving me little time to cast some of my thoughts.

Feeling strangely discomfortable in my right eye since morning. After a visit to the doctor, I was told that I had an inflammed upper right eyelid which some eyedrops eased the discomfort, coupled with a good rest.

A rest was done till 2pm where I had some homecooked food for lunch, and did some reading online. Managed to catch up with Songjie over the phone; it's good to have back my trusty G800 which also took great pictures.
