Oh dear, pulling tarpaulins is much tougher than one will think :p so so exhausted after it all, we had to shift and lay planks and plywood so that the wheeled implements (for lack of appropriate vocabulary) we use to move e tarpaulins will not damage the track, which they told us cost a thousand for every damage inflicted :(

Essentially just slacking now, cos we\'ve got ndp later and nothing on now. Seems like it\'s gonna be a long affair, ending at like past midnight for just a 45 minute event on the actual day. Sigh, pulling tarpaulins doesn\'t sound very glam eh? :p

think i\'ve been pretty moody nowadays. Somehow, just kept feeling there\'s some elusive truth out there eluding my grasp, something on the boundary, or perhaps on the other side, of the limits of human understanding and perception. And it\'s all just about time, the spinning clock and dials, days fluttering by, and grains of sand in the hourglass slipping by. Feeling lost, unsure of what tmr brings, not wanting to lose myself in this eternal chase.
