happy birthday... sunny island

Well, its Singapore's 41st birthday. Congratulations to the PAPs ! down with commies. & Thank you for this wondrous day of public holiday. Went to chinatown in the morning to have Dim-sum with my parents (siewmais,hargows,you name it...). Sighted some social escort, from china, touting customers and some richshaw riders blasting techno.

anyway, we popped by this richshaw organisation or some headquarters, tourist thingy... and my loquacious, kpo dad inquired on the pricing for hiring the riders... no not the prostitutes!

*Dialogue
Dad: excuse me, how much for hiring the riders huh? one whole day.
man: huh? one whole day?
Dad: No more one whole day ar?
man: oh... dun have. only per trip around chinatown
Dad: how much ?
man: $36
Dad: Oh... how many hours?
man: 45 mins lor
Dad: right... alrightt.. thanks.



Anyway, went to metro at compass after that. bought a beverly hill brown polo stripe tee and a pair of khakis, using the $100 metro voucher from POSB.

Omg. 1 entire month of prelims, 6 days to go. Its like doing O' levels again, but 10x its magnitude. Please put me into a mug... psyche me to study...something. my study plan, or at least, things to be achieved each day


Night Muse

As the day ends, i put myself to bed.
Pondering,yondering if dawn is there
once again, to make my day.

A new day, a bright day, a sunny day?
With captions of morrow, a glimpse of
coming sorrow. Fraudulent fellow.

Time is sagging, ticking,
slipping, holding me to this creeping age.
Eighteen is youth. Dawn,Nay. Aeon.
