Discovered a diary that lasted 2 entries, from when I was 8 years old! Written during my trip to Thailand. So amusing, reading my own narration (Enid Blyton style) of what went on in the aeroplane and at the breakfast table. (Yes, that's my illustration of breakfast!)
I think I shall force my kids to keep diaries, because they would thank me decades down the road. Then again, unlike me, they may not delight over silly little things like that. I tend to make the mistake (perhaps?) of assuming my kids would be little Evelyn-replicas, haha.

Now this photo demonstrates the despicable lack of privacy that I honour when it comes to taking pictures.
I see this funky fuchsia-haired lady everywhere in Singapore. At random bus stops, in random buses, at random locations all over the country. Which is quite surprising, even in our little country of less than 5 million souls.
The strangest thing is that she's got a head of bright pink hair, and she's always wearing itty bitty skirts (some even shorter than my itty bitty skirts), and more often than not, skimpy tops - but she's actually pretty old and veiny, and she's always alone, and I do suspect her life has an interesting story behind it.
I very nearly struck up a conversation with her after snapping that photo, but alas, my shyness held me back. Haha. Would probably have been interesting, though.

Latest 'love letter' from work. Customer's email address, complete with a neat little sketch and an ambiguous line of poetry. (So who's the trampled rose?)

Yeah, I still cry over you from time to time. Chatting so comfortably with you about army life and my life and all sorts of random things, made me secretly burst into tears about 3 times.
(Rewind 3 to 4 years ago, and that would be us. Chatting online about everything that mattered, nothing that mattered, for hours and hours and hours.)
And when we decided to go offline at 3 am, you went off to bed, I went off to the bathroom to bawl.
I'm so sorry. I know I handled it in the worst possible way. But I'm so glad you understand why I did what I did. And I'm so glad we're still friends, because Justin you're truly one of the most amazing people I've ever met.
And now I'm bawling again.
