Sighs

There was one feature on the previous VCD player in my living hall. It's called something A-B. You hit the button to set the starting point, A, of repetition (of the track) and subsequently the second time, B for the end of the repeat. Dong Hao once suggested to use the feature to view and view for an indefinite time, the sex scene in one of my werewolves movies that we watched with Liang Wei in the wee hours before some kind of CWLP trip.

Today, this feature came back from the grave to haunt me (the VCD player's broken for ages, and we've sent it to it's eternal lying place) I woke up this morning to the monotonous repetition of my mum's piano playing. She was repeating some bars from the song "Moon River" for eternity. It was like listening to a broken recording, or some scratched CD repeating the same "phrase" over and over and over again until you cannot stand it, I can't stand it neither... Spoilt my waking up mood...

I then found my brother Lin Sien in front of the computer, and we agreed to DoTA. It was a hard hard game, with the enemy's Naix going wild with Satanic and a Heart... Then we were like defending and earning some cash to buy late game items. Enemy can't push into our base due to our creep clearing abilities, and their level 25 heroes are almost "full-grown"... So we are like just defending and keeping them out and waiting for the right moment to strike, uh, buy! Then came the nagging thing again.. Lunch! Parents are already asking us for lunch, which turns out to be fried rice (home cooked food) We are not hungry, but they persisted in, 'Lunch!' and 3('Going to eat lunch soon!') You do the maths... In order to keep them satisfied, we had to ABANDON our poor teammates (the game depends on teamwork, another hour's time and we'll kill off the enemy) and go for LUNCH even though we ARE NOT HUNGRY. Sigh! My mood was really spoilt then... Darn!

We could have won the game... Even the Naix knew about this... And yet...
