Outta my head

Hmm... Don't ask me why I picked this title... Just heard this song by Fastball over the radio the other day and it sort of stuck with me.

[Hums tune..."Was I out of my head? Was I out of my mind? How could I ever be so blind..." ]

Out of our heads... How often do we do crazy things? And I mean really crazy things out of a sudden... Nevermind how silly we look... Sometimes we are all just too governed by this particular set of rules that we measure our daily lives upon... Our each and every move... That we are so afraid to let our hair down and do something that we always wanted to do... Maybe, it is good to start with just taking a little time every day to just sit down and think for a bit and do something that you feel that is worth doing... no matter what... Nevermind, if you look like some kutu-head... Ha ha... For a start... I think I'd go pig out on my tub of Raspberry Ice-cream in the fridge... Yummy... Ke ke ke...

Oh ya... On the same topic... I had this really weird encounter the other day. I was on my way to Changi General Hospital the other day to visit a friend. So it goes... I was walking up to the hospital and suddenly, there was this car with a lady behind the wheel and her son in the front seat... The l'il boy was in tears and the lady waved frantically when she saw me crossing the road... Boy... Was I puzzled... I thought the L'il boy was ill or something and his mother was desperate to get him to the doctors... The thing is that... I thought it's crazy, cos she was driving in the opposite direction... Which was very dangerous mind you... And she pulled up in the drive, right in front of the lobby and the boy ran out to the reception... Until this point, I thought it was just a bizarre encounter... Which changed quickly... When I started to feel that something was seriously amiss here... I quickly crossed the road and when I reached the lady... She took a great amount of strength to open her door and with a brief "I think I'm going to get a heart attack..." She half-flopped out of the driver's seat into my arms... Ok... That totally got me into panic mode... I was like... "Someone get the doctor!� And I was just right outside the A&E department... So drama... The guy at the reception quickly took a wheelchair over and we heaved her out of her car and, with the assistance of a few nurses who were just knocking off... we quickly pushed her into the A&E department for resuscitation. Thing is... It's quite difficult to reason her actions... It wasn't right of her to drive all the way to the hospital, when she knew she was getting a heart attack... It was really dangerous and she's highly capable of endangering the lives of the others on the road... and her son for that matter. But... On the other hand... Which nut-case would pull over the road and get help when she knows that her life is in critical condition... and she'd get a better chance at saving herself if she makes it to the hospital before konking out... It's very selfish... But it's only human to fight for their survival... And knowing Singaporeans... How many kind souls out there would stand out and offer a helping hand, when they see someone in trouble? I guess... The answer is very subjective... But the bottom-line is... Maybe, it would be good if we could all be a l'il more considerate... and a l'il more caring... To others and ourselves... And perhaps... The story would have been very much different already.

Hope she's well already...

Ok... Going to stop here today... Dinner time... Ke ke ke... Ta-ta!


Tune for the day

Out Of My Head
Fastball

Sometimes I feel
Like I am drunk behind the wheel
The wheel of possibility
However it may roll

Give it a spin
See if it can somehow factor in
You know there's always more than one way
To say exactly what you mean to say

Was I out of my head?
Was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever be so blind?
I was waiting for an indication
It was hard to find
Don't matter what I say only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but i finally woke up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too...

Was I out of my head?
Was I out of my mind?
How could I have ever be so blind?
I was waiting for an indication
It was hard to find
Don't matter what I say only what I do
I never mean to do bad things to you
So quiet but i finally woke up
If you're sad then it's time you spoke up too...
