Ode to 2 o'clock
Here's another pointless post from me. Really, you guys should be ashamed, not posting any random spam for so long, leaving it all to me *tut tut*
It's 2 am again, which is I think my favourite time of day, depending of course on when it is. It is my favourite time of the holidays and the weekends, but not so much when I have to do something the next morning. At 2 in the morning it is early enough to still feel like late night, but late enough that the majority of people are in bed. You can look out at all the houses with or without lights, watch the road and see the small amount of traffic trickle past (this works best if you live within view of a major road). At 2 in the morning you are usually alone. So you can read, watch obscure late night t.v. (or the aforementioned taffic) reflect on the meaning of life or curl up in bed and do nothing but listen to music. You can, as I am currently doing, surf the internet mindlessly while attempting to download MSN messenger. These activities are all more fun if done at 2 am than at most other times of the day. Alternately, if it is a weekend and you are out at 2 am it's great to see the large amounts of people hanging around at that hour, it's still usually early enough to be awake and dancing, and late enough that other people are too. The best time to be awake at 2 in the morning is the summer holidays.
Of course, other times are good too. During uni 8:30 pm is one of the best times, at Boarding School 4 pm is pretty good, and there is something to be said for the occasional 10/11 am on a Saturday. But that is not the issue here.
MSN is failing to load onto my old, old, operating system, so it is time for me to go and do some 2 am reading in time to sleep before it hits 3 and gets too late... 'night all.
