freaked for a moment

nope nth to do w fright nites.

Can B. MTM lunch. a moment of ingenuity and spontaneity so out-of-this-world i was shell-shocked.

u see, this canteen is shaped like a semi-circle, and there are 2 tiers. only 2 small flights of stairs link em up. otherwise, e upper tier is like 1 metre higher w an additional safety barricade of another metre.

MTM always seats on e lower tier. so, obviously, wherever ur seatin, uve to go through e '2 small flights of stairs'. if not?

e flash of 'ingenuity and spontaneity' from jeanette brought enormous waves of thoughts to me. i thot of Immanuel Kant. e great philosopher juxtaposed Sanity and Insanity. one is perceived as sane when one conforms to e norms set out by the majority of society. one is insane (not because one is mentally defective) when one follows his own sane version of perception.

jeanette n meisee got up from their table to go get lunch. meisee went straight to e stairs. jeanette moved right to e 2-metre high 'obstacle' beside e table, in e most 'natural n nonchalant manner' quoting thad, durin e lunch peak with hordes of sane people...

she climbed it.
(i wonder how e guy who sat back-facin e barricade felt when a jeanette appeared out of nowhere)

this is madness. i look at jeanette differently now.

"Though this be madness, yet there is method in 't." - the Bard
"Part of being sane, is being a little bit crazy." - Janet Long
"A person needs a little madness, or else they never dare cut the rope and be free.” - Greek writer Nikos Kazantzakis
