yesterday afternoon,i endured the unbearable heat all the way from JB to dhoby ghaut.met Liz at PS and we headed for simlim by foot.we had lots to complain about the heat but the short walk was nice cos we got to catch up a bit on whats been happening.the last time i met up with her was before the term 4 exams.
after the two of us IT illiterates surveyed the prices and new models in store,we went to rocher rd(i think) for tau huey.sad to say,for one who has studied in spore for more than ten yrs,i dont really know my way around spore well.and so,i felt rather pleased to have been introduced to an unfamilliar area thats not ang mo kio(where st nix is situated) or town.while we were savouring every bit of the smooth tau huey,the thaipusam procession was going on the main road(i forgot the name).for someone who has only seen pics or heard about it from social studies lessons,it was qt a sight.
this indian guy a few tables from us stood by the road and chanted/cheered with great enthusiasm whenever one of those guys with the thing(i totally forgot what its called.the big ornament they pierce into the flesh.with chains and everything) paraded past.the incessant chanting and cheering from the road was so filled with energy.i was truely impressed by the respect they had for the religion and this practice.on the grass patch nearby,families settled on a good spot and watched on.
in a cosmopolitan spore,its good to see people still proud of their roots and actually take part in it.out of the blue,i felt a certain pride in being a chinese and knowing how to play the dizi.
today was alright.went IDP with dad and then had a nice home cooked dinner with him.he's the only dad i know that can cook SO well.(:(:(:then he fetched me to the pool for a swim.then came home to watch a bit of TRL and amazing race,then half of american idol on starworld.
but the past few days i've been easily irritated and impatient.that might have been why i havent been in the most chattable of moods whether on the phone or on MSN.the negative vibe thats been around.sorry u guys.
adel:i appreciate u hearing me out yesterday.sorry havent been very "chattable".
yt: the one that calls every other day and i call most often(fellow msian!).your calls always brings a smile to my face.
nina:thanks for the concern dear.(:im ok.
