New things, strange things, weird things...

Michael's blog seems to have vanished... one day mine will too, or maybe I'll give it a new name or totally start a fresh new blog. But right now, I'm still happy reading my good old memories...

The newspaper reported a case of sudden death, the boy was only 16 and was healthy. Why do someone so healthy and young died all of a sudden, and it was horrible because that day was his birthday. A birthday song by his family failed to wake him up, I felt so sad for them. It always always always reminds me that I must live my life happier so one day even if I do leave suddenly, I have done a lot that I wanted...

On Friday, mum had a precious day off due to the Hari Raya earlier, so we decided to go Kusu island. It was like an annual event when we were younger and I wasn't around the last couple of years. Dad, mum, me and little sister. It wasn't hazy or too hot, but still warm and humid. I didn't like the Marina south pier as it was far too inconvenient. We had to take cabs because my parents couldn't walk long with their weak legs. It was a short nice trip since we haven't had any proper family outing for a long time, even though the things you see at Kusu is always the same... but this time I fed an old tortoise with my apple ;)

After that, I decided to bring them to Vivo City - Singapore's new largest shopping mall. It's our virgin trip so all of us quite like the idea to go and take a look despite my parents do not fancy shopping at all. Friday, nonetheless, was still super crowded... even looking for seats in the foodcourt took a while. I like some of the small boutiques where they do have unique and affordable dresses... and lot of new brands. It's like an all-in-one heaven for shopping (orchard road + cityhall), call it a paradise! Anyway the most exciting thing is that one of my favourite brands in UK is opening here - River Island but I bet it's going to be soooo.... expensive!! :(

Today I had my first training at my new found activity... it was tiring, I know I have to build up those stamina I had when we played volleyball at Sentosa some years back. It was fun, I liked being on or near the water again... I was usually seasick but doesn't seem like anymore, the ferry to Kusu was fine as well. I used up a lot of strength earlier and I am expecting my whole body to ache later on or perhaps tomorrow. So far, my arms and legs just feel a bit overused, other than that, the pain hasn't come ;)

D is getting married. Wow, what a news and its from the new team mates. I knew him in 2001 but ever since we have lost touch. I wonder if I should congratulate him, I think I should but what is his number?? LOL. I think I shouldn't get his number from my new found mates... I can always send him the wishes when I do see him.
