sometimes i wonder why the aircon in buses are so bloody cold. it's like the arctic freeze inside ok, and it's worse on rainy days. (like now the rainy season omg so cold) and for bespectacled people like me, it's not a nice experience stepping out from a place so cold that it would put a refrigerator to shame, out into the open. trust me. next time you see a girl with the latest, coolest mist-covered spectacles on the streets, it could well be yours truly. and pls just pretend not to know me, cos i wont be able to make out who you are anyway.

geez.

although the weather relented and made way for sunshine these two days, the situation a few days before was starkly different. wind and storm ruled the island and its pitiful inhabitants were divided into two camps. one who hailed the spout of freak weather as a welcome change from the infamous all-year heat, and one who bemoaned the loss of convenience and comfort in this wet, wet, season.

after work on wed, the four of us sought respite from the rain in lau pa sat. yes that touristy place that churns out daily meals for all the feverish workoholics in raffles place. it was a warm and cosy feeling sitting around a table, munching on dimsum and chatting our hearts away, while the sky slowly darkened outside. thank God for those three darlings in the office or i wouldnt know what i'd do. :)

some things are really outta my sphere of control and any amount of resistance or protest from me would alter the situation no further and therefore i keep it in. although things are different from what was promised to me, i expected it coming. i expected it long ago. anyway i dont have any say.

it's strange how my temperament can swing from the lowest of the low to somewhere dangling near a high point in a short span of a couple of hours. that's human for you i guess; emotions, the very concept that differentiates us from mere animals.

and that's why sometimes i dont enjoy being "high", paradoxical as it sounds, cos it is almost always followed by a period of "low", as experience tells me.

yesterday's dinner with the sn gang was :). only regret was cherie and jen weren't there. which reminds me of how we keep "bullying" eliz haha. :P yay cheers to old friends :D
