I hereby declare the reclamation of my Queen Size Bed.

If you are wondering why I 'reclaimed' the bed, it was because my father had moved into my room for the past 2 weeks. The reason was because my mother had shingles and the household thought it was contagious - which was later proven incorrect. In an attempt to shun my mum, my dad came up with the notorious idea of sharing my room. At first, I wasn't against the idea. Afterall, I use to sleep with my parents when I was a little kid. That night, all hell broke loose.

If you think I were big in size, wait till you see my old man. We were supposed to squeeze into my coveted queen size bed. The first 2 nights were catastrophic. Once my dad flipped around, I was only left with a third of the bed; barely enough space to move even my limbs. I had to sleep with my arms crossed, literally. That aside, he snores... Really loudly and produces grumpy noises from time to time. Which makes it a pain just to try and fall asleep. Sometimes, I cry while trying to slumber. Othertimes, I'm plotting on how to strangle my father in his sleep. It also made me wonder if I would get married - to share the bed with my beautiful wife? Hmm...

However, after the first few days of sharing the same bed, my dad suggested to introduce the single spring bed mattress that was left unused in my sister's room. One of us had to sleep on the single bed and the other had the luxury of the my bed. Selflessly, I offered to accept the fate of a single sleeping spot. Clearly one of the worst decisions I've ever made. Apart from the really cramp conditions I encounter on a single sized mattress, it was really an eye opener. I meant, the male heirs of my family are granted a queen size bed all for themselves. Having fallen from heaven to hell really felt amazing to me. But even so, the snorings killed me. I often lay on the bed awake from 11 to about an hour or two past midnight and alarm goes off at 6 to prepare for school. The pimple colonies on my face have also succeeded in expanding their empires.

Here are some facts, people who snore are usually people who can lie on bed and fall asleep almost instantly. The latter are insomniacs which I happen to fall under. (If you disagree, thats your problem, don't flame) So the harsh truth is that when u simply can't fall asleep because you're an insomniac, whoever that is sharing the same room might just be making it worse by snoring. Trust me, I learnt it the hard way.

And now, Its ALL OVER. I might just pop a champagne or two in celebration of my reclamation and perhaps also the surrender of the Tamil Tigers to the Sri Lankan government after waging a civil war that lasted for about 25years.

Before I end my bullshit, I want to urge you people to actually post something on the class blog. With that, I don't mean 2 sentence entries and pictures that don't paint a thousand words. Write something solid. Or else, it'll just become my personal blog - a place for me to lament upon my miserable life.

Here's a picture of how my prized bed looks like



I hope my father doesn't find this blog.
