I decided to take the train home. The other direction.<\/p>\n<p>Calvin was going to Tanjong Pagar, and I thought I might as well try that route.<\/p>\n<p>And so, instead of a single train all the way to JE, I had to transfer at Raffles Place. I felt no difference in travelling times, just that I had more choices to get off the train.<\/p>\n<p>On the way, I was talking with Calvin. About what he has done with his gf, the nice things he did, about food that he is going to cook tonight&#8230; etc&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And suddenly, the topic changed. He was giving advice. To me.<\/p>\n<p>Advice that I think, are relevent and true.<\/p>\n<p>He knows what I am thinking deep inside.<\/p>\n<p>Pro.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe that&#8217;s why I chose to take that MRT route. I was seeking answers?<\/p>\n<p>Really? idk&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Today, I chose to alight at Clementi. Calvin said he would try to buy the stuffs at Tanjong Pagar, and so, I gave Tiong Bahru a miss. Hmm. Went over to the coffee shop to buy my dinner from that \u00e5\u008f\u00af\u00e7\u02c6\u00b1\u00e9\u00b8\u00a1 stall. Then bought something that I should not have: chocolate milk shake from Mcdonald&#8217;s. Zzz. Took 78 after that, as I wanted to nua all the way home without changing buses.<\/p>\n<p>On the way down from the upper deck of the bus, I was wondering where was the cup that I had placed at the side of my bag. I looked back at the stairs, and there it was, sitting nicely on the railings&#8230; stunt leh&#8230; it&#8217;s not everyday that I got to do that. Duhz.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, I removed the cup and threw it away after I alighted from the bus. Heh.<\/p>\n<p>While walking home from that bus stop, I thought I was in foreign territory. That bus stop\u00c2\u00a0was not the usual one where I got off the bus. Well, the surroundings had changed since the last time I remembered. Upgrading here and there, redirections here and there, etc. But somehow, I still managed to find my way home (\u00e5\u00ba\u0178\u00e8\u00af\u009d. If I got lost in my own neighbourhood, I must be really @*#&amp;!@(!) pathetic).<\/p>\n<p>My favourite activity, whenever in an open space at night, is to look up at the sky. To look at the moon, the stars, the clouds. And somehow, I will feel a little bit more energised, and a little bit more happy.<\/p>\n<p>Looking up, and wondering&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And then, closing my eyes, and feeling&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>And then&#8230;. Opening my eyes and make sure there&#8217;s no incoming traffic while I cross the car park or road. Duhz.
