near miss and thinking again


Went running after I came home from school today. Ran down Farrer Rd, by the back road as usual. Had to cross a small road. I don't normally use the traffic light cos it takes quite long to change and I don't like jogging on the spot to wait. So I just turn left and run down the road for a small distance before running across the road. Well today, I think I forgot to look to the right before crossing. Just when I was about to dash across the road, a car zoomed right in front of me. Was stunned and stopped abruptly. Bleah...almost got knocked down. Don't often have these sort of near-death experiences hahaha. Cos I usually look both ways before crossing. Ah well...

I think the last time I almost got knocked down was in lower sec. Was walking home from school with a friend. Used to live behind Henry Park Primary. So would take a bus to jelita and walk home from there. I had to walk past the school. Walking, walking, then saw two teachers walking in the opposite direction. There was not enough space on the pavement for the four of us, so I stepped down onto the road momentarily with one foot and just at that moment, a motorcycle zoomed eerily close to me. Got a shock of my life and immediately hopped back onto the pavement. If I had stepped a little further out, I might have been hit by the motorcycle. Hahaha. Splat! Gone...

Thank God I'm still in one piece after all that.

Ok change topic.

Ah. Maybe I should just not try so hard to think about stuff right. Just let lazy dot take over in this aspect. Yeah dot might be interested in thinking about certain topics, but dot isn't really good at thinking. Always misses some important points of view and stuff. Then when dot rethinks or re-reads, dot realises that hey, everything sounds so...useless. So kiddie. So shallow. Then eeks. See, interest does not equate to being good at something. So should dot just drift around without trying to think, or should dot just keep trying but churn out useless things? Hmmm. If dot keeps trying, the downside would be... time. More thoughts on other things = less time spent on studies. And dot might irritate oneself more often. Eeeee...Ok dunno. See. Maybe this is just an excuse to do something other than studying.

So much for arts and social science. If dot's gp is like that, then maybe dot isn't cut out for it. Blah. Dunno...maybe dot is only good at cutting up people. Ok that sounds so wrong. :P
