Eternal torment: The Search

Saturday, November 11, 2006

God, this entire week feels as though I'm on some darn course; I guess it's because I think (think being the definite word) I've discovered I've time to just go out and observe the world.

Yesterday after classes, I went to the Botanic Gardens with Loy to get his handphone back. Futile trip since his mother claimed it earlier. Seeing we had time to spare, we took a stroll through the gardens. I must say, it was something that I kind of needed. I say I feel more at peace after that.

Headed to Orchard (which I'm starting to find rather boring) where we parted ways. Headed towards AMK to meet Sujin to get the CDs. {btw, I've completed them; watched them twice}
Went to my grandmother's home for a quick late lunch before I grabbed a cab home. Went visiting after that. Got a decent amount considering the fact that Raya's practically ending. (Well, not according to the masses I see every damn day decked out in full finery)

Today, woke up late and thus grabbed a cab. If I had known someone would have had some problems of his own, I would have taken a bus (and obviously sleep; starting to be like I'm rediscovering the joy of sleeping). Anyway, met up with Wenping and Yiting. After that, we just took a cab to Bishan park for the WSQ event thingie. Where Mr Saiful's a judge for some competition.The goodie bags were REALLY goodie bags! A packet of chips, buns, a drink, a mat (can someone for once NOT give a mat?!) etc.

Didn't mingle at all with the other HLM'ers. We just stayed within our area; it was a decent spot - with rocks, seats and greenery all around. The clincher was the SHADE! Hehe. But after I redeemed my potong ice-cream, we got chased away by Dr Koh. At least we met Dr Chitra!

As much as I'm interested in world politics, I can't be bothered to listen to some speech. Instead, Alisa, Wenping, Yiting and I went to nearby table to learn how to make corsages. But we got side-tracked by this interesting concept of grasshoppers! Had plenty of difficulties starting out but I'm fairly sure I can do it now.

We went back to AMK for lunch. At Ramen Teh, the salmon sushi was oh so divine. So smooth...I'm yearning for more.

And thus my adventures around Singapore has ended. But I'm adamant I'm going back to Bugis for lunch on Monday when we have a four hour break...wait...or should I go to Jurong? Or Bishan? Oh...the wonders of having time and not knowing what to do with it.
