Acrophobia and randomness


I really look like some monkey kampong tree climber. Tree climbing is really fun but i have a mild case of Acrophobia (fear of heights). Symptoms typically include shortness of breath, rapid breathing, irregular heartbeat, sweating, nausea, and overall feelings of dread, although everyone experiences phobia of heights in their own way and may have different symptoms.

Perhaps the result of my fertile imagination is the main reason why i have Acrophobia. You can say that imaging things is one of my favourite past time. When i come across a situation (it might not necessarily happen to me), i'd almost instantly imagine what would the outcome be if this or that happens.

Say for instance, when i ride a lift i would imagine the lift breaking down. But that's not it. I would think further, like what if one of the mechanism breaks or loosen... and the whole lift would go downwards - explodes - and everyone dies.

Another scenario would be a roller coaster ride. Similarly some technical issues and then the whole roller coaster would explode or fly off. On the non-technical side, i would imagine myself, just myself only, flying off the damn seat... or get hit by something hard during the ride... like some metal poles sticking out from somewhere. That's the reason why i never dared to ride a roller coaster. I've been on one before but it isn't those that turn a lot. It's scary.

I remembered i had a school excursion to OUB Centre - one of Singapore's tallest building. From the top of the building you could see the merlion and malaysia. When i was up there i only stood at the center of the whole roof. I didn't want to walk around because i fear falling off the building. I don't know why i think this way, i couldn't help it. Maybe you'd think that i sound retarded, but seriously i can't help it. Close friends would know how imaginative i am especially when i always go "wa lao.. can you imagine... ..."

Finally the weekend has arrived, and sadly it's ending soon. For the entire week i'm been super tired out. When i got home yesterday i slept from 5.30pm to Sunday 1.30pm. That's about a whopping 20 hours. When i woke up i was still tired la.. and my entire right arm was numb prolly because i laid on it and didn't turn.

After the SAT test yesterday i was telling shiying "Just when you thought that all the tests are done here comes the projects!!" Damn. Isn't there like a time for us to rest and recharge? I think right after all these projects are exams. No breaks in between for a good rest. *&$*#&%*%

Camwhoring with milo is fun because he's a vain dog. He's pretty camera shy and would avoid picture taking if he thinks he isn't looking his best that day. One strange thing about him is that either he appears super cute or super retarded in pictures. There's never a in-between kind of thing for him. Haa.

Oh ya, i had a weird dream about helicopters. I don't know why i had this dream. Maybe because wen bin always talk to me about helicopters. Can't really remember the dream but it's at the mall and it's about some competition and stuff.. *shrugs*

Anyway i think this helicopter looks very cool. According to the professor it's called Trex. In detail it is called Trex 450xl. Whatever that means, it looks much better than those flimsy helicopters you used to own. HAhaha.. This looks impressive and solid la. Oh ya.. how come all the helicopters can have a full body? It's like only the front part that is covered.. and the back is (shit what is that word) exposed (yea exposed!). Makes the entire product look so incomplete. Is it for air ventilation or something?? - enlighten me please.
