Dear Diary,
Today I woke up so early I'm surprised I'm still awake now. The
morning was pretty eventful as I got to meet a friend I have lost
contact for a long time. He was actually my mentor in law in my
younger years. He seems to have aged alot but other than that I
also sense that he is now more peaceful with life. He is a good
man, but he was known for being a very strict person previously. I
guess life's experiences has soften him and thus allowing him to be
more leinient. I guess that is something I have to learn
myself.
I had a nice phone chat with a nice lady just now. I really like
her jovial and frank character and it is really a pleasure to talk
to her. I just wish we have more time alone to get to know each
other better in a closer manner like the phone chat just now.
Nonetheless, the experience was very much treasured.
I think I have many bad habits, First it's my inabilty to sleep,
then there is alcohol and smoking. I'm wondering when I can become
a really healthy lifestyle person. I have not drunk alcohol for a
week. It is some progress I think. Though I'm not alcoholic, the
doctor did remind me to stay away from it. I guess it can remain my
social habit and I always believe that everything should be
moderated and that includes my smoking. Smoked only 18 sticks
today, less than the 21 sticks yesterday. But I'm smoking now as I
type this, rather contradicting I would say, but let's put it as
I'm consoling myself. I can foresee a real fight if I would have to
quit smoking some day in the future.
The running nose is still pestering me and is not allowing me to
go easy into the night. Could it be withdrawal symtoms from alcohol
and nicotine? Nah, I doubt so, it's just the weather I hope.
Time to sleep again. It's past 12 and I should be trying to get
over my insomania an hour ago. Goodnight Dairy.
