Midnight Marathon

Last night, me and hubby went on a marathon

to see who can last longer throughout the whole night. It was not my intention but every 15 minutes after midnight, he came to my cozy corner and exclaimed “Wow, still awake?” and smirked himself to his China History series on DVDs. Quite exasperating if you asked me…..

 

 

I was in the midst of my new book which I bought last night. Came back and started reading from 10.30pm onwards. To be frank I made a pot of hot Green Tea

and gulped down 2 mugs. There you have it, I blamed it all on the tea….What was I thinking of?? Knowing the effect of tea drinking at night….Still do it. DUH!!

 

 

Anyway, I was actually too caught up with the book and forgot about time, not to mention, hardly felt a yawn or any sign of sleepiness coming…Happily stuck in my own world until my hubby comes in with his silly grin …”Not sleeping yet?”…He is on his crazy chase with the China History DVD almost every night but he would usually conked out by 1am….Last night it seems he has some competition and as long as I can stay up all night, so can he…But I just don’t care….Finally finished the book at 3.15am. Went out of the room and kissed my hubby good night and lingered to my wonderful bed…I bet I’ll be groggy the next morning but never mind, I got to finish my book in peace…. THUMBS UP!!!

 

 

It’s been a while since I had this speed reading session. Books are my prize possessions

and once I’m on the track of a good book, there is no saying how many days I could live without food, water and sleep.

 

 

Wonder when will I be able do this again?? ….Got another 3 new books on my shelf…..I can feel it coming
