Exorcist

After grad night, me and the other judokas went to the swimming complex for a wash-up, which was pretty new to the sec ones. They was either a gay amongst them or just shy, because our showers weren't covered and they didn't want to shower. Thus our rendezvous at the swimming pool took some time.

But that's besides the point.

Imagine you being perfectly tired to the point that you'd sleep immediately given the chance.
Imagine that after a nice bath you were forced to take, you go to the Space, all ready to conk out.
Imagine that you still have to endure 15 min of stupid briefing.
Imagine that you only have 5 hours left before you have to wake up to do CIP.
Now imagine that after all that crap, 60% of the people around you want to watch the Exorcist, which claims to be the scariest movie of all time, at that time.

That was the situation on the night b4 CIP. Actually, I couldn't be bothered with that show, since im worried that i wont be able to wake up in time. My discman was ready to block out the sounds, but in the end the screams were too loud, to the point that when i use Jamie Cullum to block it out it is too loud for me to sleep. So what the hell. The show is indeed disturbing, in the sense that it is VERY graphical. You can see green vomit, hopelessly disfigured face, 360 degree turns with the head... so on and so forth. Velden was damn spooked by it. He refuses to think about it even until now when im chatting to him. Keob was ok with the show, keeps talking about the girl looking like sith from star wars(yeah right, ur just trying to calm urself down). Carl and Wenjie seem to be warming up to each other, which will be good in the future. Jitneng was also ok-ok.

But somehow the spook of the film wasn't really imprinted on me. I cant even remember much of the film. Probably because I've learnt in P4 how to shut my mind and just go to sleep. I was able to not think of the show when I tried to sleep, which was probably how I managed to not get spooked. And most importantly, thank God for being who I always thought about when I feel abit spooked.
