A bowl hits a tile on a kitchen floor of a high-rise apartment in Singapore, South East Asia, Earth.
about 12 metres away a young man wakes up immediately regretting the amount of time spent gaming into the wee hours of the morning.
It takes me a while to realise that I'm awake. I duck under the covers and try to go back to sleep, and after half an hour of trying I get up.
Inbox is full and I can't get any messages. 5 minutes later I realise that Ernie and Shelley are going out. Can't text them back. Ruddy phone, can't even withstand being used as my makeshift drumstick.
The usual morning unfolds itself on my computer screen. Its safer, calmer, more orderly in the mess of my own room than in the organisation of the outside. I understand now why even Superman needed a fortress of solitude.
The phone rings. I've got till 3 to reach PS.
Several hours later I'm on the rail, why do such a large number of local women insist on wearing shorts and so few to dresses?
Grab the usual when I'm there: Saybons (oh, the owners in today. She almost never smiles, but its alright. Such good food can only come from a well meaning heart) and then later boost. We're set.
Why am I watching New Moon? Of all people, I am probably one of the many who detest the idea of the twilight series. After all, I've been told the entire storyline ( thank you Shelley for all the spoilers ). That and I'm a Harry Potter fan, the natural arch-nemesis of the Twilight fan.
The only thing that redeemed the movie was that Edward's sister was really cute. That and everybody's eyes looked nice. After 2 cups of soup and one cup of boost I REALLY need the toilet.
Met Nick after that. BIG FEAST.
The list of good food that have been devour'th:
1. Deep fried pork skin ( without the fat. this is worth dying for )
2. Shan-district tofu noodles ( they were very salty )
3. Pig Head Salad ( a lot better than it sounds )
4. Semolina rice cake with poppy seed topping ( gave me a headache )
Best feast in a while.
I need to buy a huge bag of fried pork skin.
