Dear Diary...

Dear Diary,

Of late I've been acting really strange. When I'm with my friends, I smile more or less frequently, and it's easier to act natural. But at home, I just have to turn on the computer or the NDS, and I can maintain my blank expression for the rest of the day. It feels really weird to me, but no one else notices. They don't really bother. I mean, everyone's busy with one thing or another, no one actually observes... They just find it weird that I wake up at exactly 6.30 am, no matter how late I sleep.

Pa Pa caught me reading books at 2 am yesterday morning by the light of my handphone. I didn't take a chance with my flashlight 'cuz it's too bright, but when I got up to use the toilet he asked me why was up at 2+ in the morning. I tried to ease the suspicion by saying something about Mei snoring and tossing about too much, but kids can't fool their parents. What he said really froze the blood in my veins- "If you just woke up, you wouldn't be so awake."

I cursed myself all the way back to my room. After about ten minutes, he didn't come, so I thought I was safe. Just as I opened my book, the door slammed open. It's like he had x-ray vision or something! Okay, he confiscated my book and took my handphone for charging, then promptly banned me from going to the library for three days. I'm gonna die cooped up here with only all the books in my bookshelf, computer (which Di Di is using to play AQ World), and NDS (Mei is playing Nintendogs).

The good news is, Mummy says she has an overdue book so I'm going to helpfully return it for her and spend the rest of the day at the library. :D I can't wait till Pa Pa comes back so we can leave! You know, last time we went on holiday and we didn't go to the library for a whole MONTH the librarians there were so worried, they called us to see if we were alright, if we moved house, etc.

Joke! Guess that shows how often we visit the library... Hee..

I'm going now, Diary. Pa Pa has come back (finally!) and we're leaving after an early dinner.

Bye!
