Confessions of a insomaniac...

Here's some quote/paraphases from my MSN conversations which I call my drifting story:

I had to do some crazy driving/drifting on New Year's eve when driving back home from work... hehe, all that snow drifting in Initial D really pays off... ;) The cAr slipped on some something, maybe it was ice, but luckily I mastered the art of drift-countersteering or there could have been consequences...I didn't slip on purpose. I normally don't try to drift the car in real life unless I know there's no cars around, i.e. I go to an abandoned parking lot to pratice. Every car drives different so while I've got a pretty good hang of drifing different cars from playing the game, being able to master one's own car or in my case, my mom's car, you gotta pratice occasionally to see how it handles. I had traffic behind me so I didn't want to slow down to change into the right lane, the guy in the right lane wouldn't slow down to let me in and it was almost time to turn right... perhaps I should have just tried to go around, I don't remember if that was a T intersection though... anyhow so I had to speed up to pass him and also get into the right turn lane to make the turn into one of yield sign right turn lanes, but then all of a sudden the car slipped on something and lost control, the tail drifted out to the left... I gotta pretty scared but I used my "skills"... I had to do a drift in one of those yield sign right turn lanes... at least that's where I think the tail was, it was crazy... that's a really TIGHT drift:-O:-O Jesus might have helped me a bit on that one, even though I was at the wheel, I normally don't drift that good even if I'm trying to; Plus I've been a bit out of pratice. I haven't been playing Initial D as often as I used to, although I have been mainly sticking to praticing the snow course in the game. However, if the car's tail kicked out any later or earlier, the consequences could have been dire. So although I know I'm good at controlling a car when it's drifting, the road conditions that day and when and how the car started to drift, that wasn't intention nor under my control, thanks God. :)

Ya, and also me not hitting the wall or in this case, the turn, ya, I had to get pretty close to the inner curb to make the turn too... I wonder what the person in the right turn lane was thinking... haha, he/she was probably scared too... but next time they better pay attention to my signalling right and if they're behind me, they should know to slow down...

It's a new year, people talk about resolutions, plans, etc... so I figure maybe I should blog a bit about what's new with me. I was thinking to change my blog name to the subject of this blog "Confessions of a insomaniac..." Hopefully I won't have to... We'll see... but ya, "Secret Life of Agent K"... my life really isn't so secret anymore, not that it's a bad thing, but at first I didn't think anyone cared, I didn't think anyone would ever read my blog, so I'm kinda glad to be wrong on that one...

I just took a lot of scolding and yelling from my physical mother when I came home late from a New Year's Eve Bash... but that's the way she always is... she overreacts to every little thing. If I drop my dinner on the floor by mistake, she'll want to bring the roof down also. And the way she yells, the windows will go first if she was high pitched enough and then comes the walls when she throws her big fit(s)... Sometimes I think it's genetic, and my mom thinks so too, but maybe it's also parenting. Regardless, It's fairly evident that my mom isn't the only person in my biological family who "takes things too seriously". By the grace of God I'm trying to change, and it's happening, but it isn't easy. How does one put up with being raised with a single parent who constantly overreacts in your face. I really have a hard time not blowing up back at her sometimes. Most of the time I can keep my cool, but sometimes she just gives me too much "angry mom" rubbish or decides to push my buttons (make me angry) by using the one thing she knows will tick me off, which s to use my Lord's name in vain (it seems like she wants to tick me off when she's ticked off herself so she does it in purpose in my opinion!)

I know she cares and all and she just wants me to get a good night's rest as I gotta wake up for church in about 4 to 5 hours, but it's not like I can sleep anyway, that's why I don't care, cause I know I'm going to have trouble sleeping after seeing things that cause me to have trouble sleeping! (UNFINISHED)

Ok, now it's actually January 1st night time. My head still feels like it's up in the clouds. Going to try to get some good sleep tonight, I estimate I'll fall asleep soon and hopefully sleep in till like noon the next day. Been sleep deprived the whole week.
