So this morning about 3am, I accidentally noticed the date on my phone. It said June 17, THU. I was honestly stunned. It took a minute for that to sink in. I even opened the calendar app to make sure that June 17 is indeed Thursday because i was pretty sure that the date was June 17, but it's supposed to be Wednesday. I was pretty sure of it because yesterday, I was planning out the rest of my week. I said to myself that since it is still Tuesday, I could move some things on Thursday to be done etc. My brother is leaving for a work trip on Thurday, too. Last night, my brother told me he's leaving early today. All I thought of was that he has a mini work trip before his major Thurday work trip... so when I saw the calendar. It felt like the rug was swept off my feet...
Does getting blackout drunk in a foreign city, in a country neighboring enemy nations, on a different continent, and waking up without a clue where you are, a dead cellphone, and not a single person speaking English count as lost?
Ah! I get the feeling! Time flies really fast and I can't really notice that a week passed until the Friday hits! >.< *pat pat pat* That's a bit too much, Das-kun~ Drink responsibly~
I forgot that I have school trip because I stayed all night playing games. I only remembered that day was a school trip day when they post the group photo on the group.
I missed like, half of the planning meetings with my teammates for stuff and every time I feel so guilty because I got distracted with online stuff and lost track of time
I do not get lost, I simply take impromptu scenic diversions. It's interesting discovering attractions, parks and roads that you didn't know existed there. I like having an excuse to study local maps and plan relaxing drives through the countryside. Where's your sense of adventure? No, really, where is it relative to here, cause I think I can get home from there... So, there was this time, before ubiquitous sat nav and mobile data, that I took a junction on to a main road number I knew and marked for a town "in the same direction as home" without being aware I was in a place "between" the two towns. I was only 20-30 minutes from home in good traffic. I had been driving for the best part of an hour before I realized I was in an area I'd never heard of and the few signs only listed places I didn't know the relative positions of. I had to use my pre-smartphone mobile to call my dad and have him look up street names on a pre-Google-maps website. It was an interesting moment to hear "Wait, you're in $place_name, that's in the opposite direction from home! Just turn around and stay on that road, you'll be home in an hour." Oops? Still not as bad as something a sibling once did though.
does fully immersing yourself to play a game/read counts as getting lost ? i mean, i usually lose track of time and i tend to literally forget about myself during those time as i fully immerse myself into what i play/read and it can last for weeks at times...
