(Exhale) "Aiyor..."

That has been my signature gesture since the beginning of 3rd year.

Guess it has become too much for Charlene who, when I sat next to her at NLT today, turned to me and said, "Why are you sighing so much?"

Actually, I don't know either. It started off as a response to stress, but I think it's now progressed to a habit, much to the annoyance of others.

It reminds me of this episode of Friends that I watched not too long ago.

Rachel found a pair of undies at Monica's flat and Joey was forced to admit that it was his (although it actually belonged to Chandler) because he had promised to guard the secret that Mon and Chand were dating.

Rachel: "Joey, why are your underpants on the couch?"
Joey: (Shrugs) "Because I'm Joey?"

So the next time someone ever asks me why I sigh a lot, maybe I'll just take my cue from Joey and say, "Because sigher (saya) Adeline?"
