Revision

My lips began to dry up a few days ago. It must've been the change of weather. So I bought a lip balm stick from the pharmacy near my house. I asked for the cheapest one that they have. They gave me one without a brand.

So today as I did my revision for the upcoming mid-semester exams, I placed my lip balm on my table since my lips keep drying up every half an hour or so. When you do your revision or homework, you'll always have this pause where you stare at something without any reason and your thoughts start to drift away. It goes from 'how do I solve question number 3' to 'what is the VAT rate again?' to 'isn't it a bit cold today?' and finally you realise something interesting about the thing that you were staring at while you were drifted in your thoughts. Which was when I realised the brand of my lip balm. It was the cheapest in the store so it's not something like Neutrogena or Nivea. It was 'Le Stick De Mon Pharmacien'. When I realised this I couldn't help letting out a huge laugh. Thank God I was at home and not in the library. I mean, how can you not laugh at the thought of putting 'my pharmacist's stick' on your lips every half an hour?

Spring is in the air. I know this might sound crazy, but I wish winter could be just a little bit longer.
