almost scared myself out of my chair while I was doing transcription just now. The interviewee is rather soft on this audio so naturally I turned up the volume a little, such that the background sounds etc are a little louder too. So while I was damn engrossed trying to catch the last sentence, this unfamiliar ringtone suddenly rang.

I seriously... literally just jumped in my seat. Cos my phone definitely doesn't sound like that. And the fact that its so loud it just caught me off guard. That's when I realised...

Its the damn phone in the INTERVIEW.

for goodness's sake, I was scared half out of my wits due to some stupid phone that isn't even in my room. lol. I think its all because of Dawson's story last night. Man, it still sends shivers up my spine when I think about it.

and one more thing is disturbing me lately. the nagging thought that my little toe is still not fully recovered yet. it still aches once in a while if I am not careful while walking. And that day I was damn sad by the fact that I can't even wear my black flats properly. I was half-limping with my right legt stepping on the back of my shoe - cos I cant wear it without feeling the pain in my toe.

and of cos the next day, being stubborn me, I tried to wear shoes again. this time round my white open-toe heels. ARGH. the pain is worse, I didn't even dare try 'forcing' my foot in.

shucks. let's hope it gets well soon. I don't like always wearing sandals n slippers to sch.
