Some habits are tough to break – not necessary bad ones.

Everyday when I finish bathing, I will leave the bathroom and without thinking twice, flick the switch to the lights of the bathroom off. Many times when there’s someone else going in after me, I was told explicitly to not turn off the switch when I’m done (apparently to lengthen the life of the light bulb; I know not if this is true). No matter how hard I try to remind myself not to do so, my hands will automatically flick that switch off without thinking twice.

Anyway, while I was browsing through some forums, procrastinating about doing PW, I came across this interesting thread about some J2s being extremely worried about their NS enlistment date. Well, I can’t say I am not anxious or worried about that, but I think some of them are going overboard. Typical, kiasu Singaporeans. Period.

When I asked Kinokuniya about the reason why when imported, Japanese books cost twice as much, this was what I got:

Thank you for your interest in the Death Note Illustration Book [Blanc et
Noir]. However, we are unable to disclose the costs involved in importing
the products as these are classified as confidential information. We seek
your understanding in this matter.

A little disappointing, but oh well.
