i think the iphone will miss out on the asian market.

i'm waiting for the xperia.

on another note... sony lent a touch of its bravia type ads to the xperia's.

its been quite a while.

today went jb with the boy. photos for the past months if you visit my flickr. shoe shopping and the likes. caught "i am legend" across the causeway. and got myself some books from city square as well.

geylang with the parents on saturday night. before picking up baby for macs at west coast park. ( + )



and terminal 3 is just way too spacious. on the sunday after hisham's wedding. ( + )



before ending the night with dinner at a turkish restaurant. ( + )

so asked the boy to grab some arnold's chicken and cheese dips. my favourite. haha. and we walked around geylang afterwards. ended up buying some cds for myself. and just enjoy the idleness of a little part of singapore. that's preparing for its annual bazaar.

ngo oi lei? ngo sek lei?

much later, we ended up at that part of eunos. for satay on a whim. sugarcane juice, my favourite. oblivious.

so today, asked the boy if he wanted to follow me around looking for some simple polo t's. i did not find anything in vivocity to be appealing. so much for a uber huge shopping centre. found our way to chinatown where i thought i wanted to show him this bookstore called whatever. felt negative vibes actually upon stepping into the store. we left shortly after.

ice creams. and old hokkien songs later, ended up getting 2 nice fitting polo t's at sportsmenasia. not sure if i end up buying because the polo t's are nice, or because i just wanna hump every one of the store assistants.



donuts courtesy of my colleague, pauline. i just love the honeydew flavoured one. no wait. i love all of them~!!!



a little bit of goofing around would prob do me some good. and shoes heaven. as taken by the boy.

we walked a little and got caught in the rain. but walking in the rain together was somewhat nice. joking and making remarks and retorts at each other. i know something's going on when i look him straight in the eye. and of course if i were to ask, he'd give his typical reply, "don't be idiot can a not. ah... nothing's wrong ok..."

but we both know our expressions and body language tells something else.

that's as much as you learn about someone after spending so much time with them.

dinner was a nice simple seafood spread at holland village, after his hair cut at the barber. from yishun we travelled down to commonwealth. where he had his hair cut by the same barber ever since his primary school days. he commented about the aunt who's been a terror in his life. the one staying at the nearby estate. it was, apt to say, we passed by familiar places.

the question now will be, when?

it dawned on us that the voice coming from the macs are the daleks or HAL. but take away the smiles and the laughs from the day, we were reminded more of what's coming up in a few weeks time. for the now, i'll just enjoy the time we spend together.

the woodland creatures swore never to go back into the wild

its... been some time... in fact... i can't quite recall the last time i ever was candid in front of anyone else. well, one thing for sure. now you know what not to buy for the kids when you're at ikea. you've no idea how many others have done... erm... stuffs with them.

on another note. punctuations can make a difference.

i had a film to catch at the museum's Gallery Theatre in the late evening, village people radio show or here or more over here. really nice little space for watching films. i have to say, you should come for the "under the crescent moon" featured showcase at the museum while it is still on. there were many interesting images on display. part of it is also dedicated to arabic architecture.



a couple of days back i caught "3 Days to Forever - 3 Hari untuk Selamanya" or more about the film here, starring nicholas saputra or here or here, quite the hottie if you ask me.

upcoming will be Things We Do When We Fall in Love or here or here. and The Lost Suitcase (Koper). well hopefully i can get myself off days for both screening.

almost a week later, and yet again, i can't quite recall.

the image above is taken by adrian. rest of the series can be found here.

saturday began with 3 oily roti prata and the oily curry. felt a little bleah. but was so hungry anyways. and then met the boy and we took the bus down.



( + ) no surprises though. after a hearty dinner between the two of us and waited for the rain to go away (again), we headed down to vivocity hoping to catch a movie. and was a pleasant surprise to catch bluboi78 and his dearie. haha. its like an omg what a surprise moment~! haha. but paiseh la... didn't actually introduced you to din. mmm... anyway. heh.

no movies that fit our timing hence we ended up at tiong bahru for "epic movie". if anyone is gonna tell me its a lame movie...

i'll kill you.

today on the other hand. i'll be off to kl. with shah and sham. and we'll be doing a quick road trip. safe journey. gonna miss you... and you... and you.

talking about dreams. i dreamt that i was called back to the coast guards. wierd as it is, i had to retake my first aid course in order to renew it. danil was there. and ahfai was there. and naszri. and lawrence too. there were people from other teams that i said hi and shook hands with. everyone was glad to see me around. ma'am dorris, ah kau, my team leader, william. it was wierd that danil was there too, supposedly taking the test with me. i can't quite put a finger to that part of the dream. somehow because i was getting reacquainted with everyone, i missed the test. reason was since i was not seated when they are distributing the papers. hence i was barred. in my mind i was telling myself to just ask for leniency since they've not even started writing anything yet, still the me in the dream just said ok, and decided to leave.

it was... different. wearing that uniform. seeing my old locker. i felt... great actually. felt... something positive. i didn't say bye to anyone as i left. and once again my dream involved taking a train. a futuristic mrt if you might. well the mrt itself is not exactly futuristic. but the landscape of singapore itself. massive buildings. that are so close to one another. and jurong east mrt station is pretty much the same this time. but the middle train where i'm supposed to transfer to, was not a train, but a moving platform instead. well its like those flat ones, where their purpose is to carry odd shaped cargoes. the sign reads, the moving platform will serve as a train for the day. i saw this big carnival at the field. with one big tent that sells donuts. i could see all the happy people buying the donuts. it reminded me of vinco donuts. i told myself if only krispy kreme is here.

the platform started to move. and i lowered myself to my knees in anticipation for a jerky trip. the sun was in my eyes. but the landscape. clear blue skies. buildings with the evening sun giving them a golden glow. and that surreal atmosphere... was beautiful. and i woke up with no conclusion. my dreams are usually in black and white. or sepia colours. this dream is in colour. i guess it is nothing but just a dream if that's the case.
