2 weeks ago my family went to queenstown to have branch. I was intrigued by an old man with 2 cups of coffee, and 2 bowls of porridge. similar bowl of porridge as mine. We sat there as a family. while the old man sat alone. I was to believe that he was waiting for someone. A friend, his wife?

I started on my porridge while he sat there alone and pondering.

He started eating. He ate and finished his bowl of porridge. But no sign of a companion. slowly but steady he ate the second bowl too. Why isn't his companion with him yet. He looks too full to finish that bowl of porridge.

Poor old man. He drank the cups of coffee too.

Where's your companion? widower? Have you bought the 2 bowls of porridge and coffee for a reason? Or have you forgotten that you're now alone?

Poor old man.

what do you think?

Dream interpretation

well.. i was thinking. usually your dreams do mean something something you are trying to solve.

So what does a claymation scene of a round brown house being moulded and a tin toy robot dancing with a sock monkey on the top of the house to a song that i have no idea if i have heard it before and it was a MTV means? it ended with some bass guitar or something. /:

I walked from borders to PS then took a train down to clark quay then took a bus and walk to great world city. Just to find a book and no everywhere is out of stock /: just my luck.

Grill off!

ok just bored. Melbourne was fun. Parents are naggy. I kinda wish the trip was longer. /: not too long like a 3mth attachment but like maybe 1 month. but i doubt someone could stand to stay with me that long. Oh well. i got busy shopping there. Bought lots of candy. some clothes and accessories.

Today is the start of FYP i wonder what we'll actually be doing. lucky for me i do not need to get up early today to go to school. BUT... i still got up early. can't sleep my legs were getting the chills. then i can't sleep anymore. also haven't went back on track with the Singpore timeline yet. anyhow i just be getting ready for school now.
