sleepless in TP

sigh.... had a terrible time trying to get to sleep last night

had a really unpleasent encounter with a guy last night. he was raising his voice and gesturing lots while I was trying to talk to him nicely over some terms and conditions.

After a few minutes, even my good tempered friend M cannot tahan his rudeness at a lady and told him to speak calmly and not raise his voice at me. He took a few deep breaths and told us that he was calmed down. So we continued our coversation, before long, he started raising his voice again.

This time, he could be heard from the lift landing where R n T were walking from. They were shocked at the display at the loudness and rudeness. After another 10mins, R told this guy to speak nicely to a lady. R told the guy that he was being watched for the past 10mins and he has yet to say any pleasant sounding words from a man to a lady. Again this guy raised his voice with R and shouted many things across, I can hardly figure out the contents when body language showed that this guy was nudging forward towards R. M was in between the two of them and trying to keep them apart.

It was intense boy.....

I did not realise that this guy was being rude to me... I guess I was used to his mannerisms and behaviour over the past few months.

I had a few sleepless weeks thinking about last night... because it was an unavoided moment to come.... I really dread it. I go to bed feeling really tired and yet my mind would be thinking about how this guy would respond/behave etc..... I get headaches thinking about it during the day as well....

finally last night came and went. After all the shouting and voice raising ended around 945pm last night, I had a snack with R n T and reached home at 12ish.....

considering that I woke up at 7am in the morning.... I should be drifting off to bed by that time... yet my eyes were wide open. I tried to distract myself with watching tv and reading.... finally I went to bed at 3+am... and my mind was filled with the voices, the shouting, the mannerisms, the body language, the unpleasent encounter with that guy... I COULDN'T sleep AGAIN!!! aiyo.... I really thought I was alright.... when I also felt my heart racing.... I was not on any medication, the only reason I can think of is this guy!!!

*SIGH*

could this be considered emotional torture?
