Painful Babble No. 3

I have done it.

The Coffin Compartments are no longer morbid and sinister looking. My windows are so sparkling clean that Tiffany & Co. is requesting me to be their main supplier. There is finally enough space on my desk to build a skyscraper (Yes, literally). I have also decided to donate the rest of the parquet flooring in my room to the Singapore Dance Theatre.
There is walking space, working space and space to breathe in my room. I guess the next commonsensical step is to join the NASA.
The work has been done.

And Kelvin rested on the 1st day of Chinese New Year.

Painful Babble No. 2

Chinese New Year is creeping round the corner and spring is just swinging around my door step. Wait… Do you hear the call echoing through your dismally dusty speakers? Yes, it's spring calling you to clean!

Spring cleaning is an awfully arduous, boringly back-breaking and crazily complex task. It ain't as simple as ABC. It takes deviant amount of determination to even commence the planning phase.

So here’s my victorious vouch (sic):
I will try my very very very best to decimate all the redundant rubbish and extraneous excess in The Coffin (It’s found in my room). Choi! The Coffin is not for me! I just felt the two compartments in my shelf are which the epithet ‘coffin’ is most applicable.

I'll put up some pictures of The Coffin (in the new website) and you will comprehend why I'm always tempted to dismember my body and dump all my limbs there. *A slight chortle* which reminds me, I’ve yet to purchase the book, Lovely Bones (narcissistic me!).

A detailed step-by-step list on how to clean and clear (No, Johnson is not at my door step):
1. Take everything out.
2. Stack everything in an artistic mess.
3. Use a damp cloth to wipe everything, and then say "damn!”
4. Grab a piece of tissue and Sneeze. (Repeat this step as desired)
5. Attempt in vain to classify everything.
6. Take another piece of tissue to wipe your tears of despair.
7. Then "*@#&$@(*#@!%!!!!!!". Strepsils might be considered necessary if this step is protracted.
8. Carry on with shoving everything back to its original position. Neatness does not count as this point of time unless one would like to make a quick trip down to IMH.
9. Take a nice long bath and sleep.
10. Dream that you've done a good job. Alternatively, you can always sob that your spring cleaning has lost its elasticity.
