After Sahur early in the morning at 5+am, it seems that I could not go back to sleep. So, I looked around my room for stuff to read or at least make me sleepy again..hehe. Books usually makes me sleepy. Anyways, I came across my secondary school's yearbook for the year 2005. As I flipped through the pages, I recalled the times when I was there.

Then, I came to this page. This was my class when I was in secondary 4. I am the one on the top left of the picture, while my gal is on the first row, first to the right of the form teacher. That was the year that I got with her, and up until now our relationship is still as strong as ever. As I looked through each and everyone of my classmates faces, I wonder where are they now and how are they doing at this moment in time. Just wished that they are all doing well. I do miss all the rubbish that we did in class..hehe.

Well, soon I felt sleepy and the went to sleep. At around noon, I woke up. I played some games until it was time to go out. I got ready and waited for my gal to arrive when I reach there at 2.30pm. When I wait for her, this would be my view.

When she arrived, we made a move towards Woodlands library. We got there and did some work that we should have completed months ago. Then, since we had some time left, we played some games and viewed other people's friendster as well as blogs. Yup, the laptop that I was using was hers. She got this Garfield laptop skin on.


Then, it was about 5+ when we made a move out of the library. I had to buy food for break fast. Before that, we went to Causeway to get me a 'Cekak'. I am not sure what it is called in English. Its those where you put on the top of your head to keep your hair in place. Maybe you can help me translate? Well, went to Chameleon to get me one of those. In the end, I told my gal to help me pay at the counter, as it would be quite embarrassing if I were the one paying up for the girl's accessory. But what to do, my hair is getting longer and difficult to manage.

Only after that, we went to the Bazaar at Woodlands. The place was packed with people, mostly people buying food for break fast like me. The place is big, but there were not many shops selling food. In the end, I bought 2 Briyani($10), Fish Char quay($2) and I went back in Causeway to buy myself combo 1 from Long John Sliver's.

One thing happened while I was purchasing the fish Char quay. This aunty came to purchase three Char quay, the seller chose two newly made ones and one from what seems to be made yesterday, as it was darker in colour. The aunty reminded the seller not to cook the darker one, so he did. Then when I ordered one Char quay, he took the darker one and put all four of the selected Char quay into one deep fryer. Then, he prepared all four at the same time. In the end, the darker one was given to that aunty..haha. That is what you get for being picky. So, the moral of the story is to be thankful for what people give you and don't be picky.

After that, we went home. My gal helped me carry some of the plastic bags that I had after buying all that food. I find just being with her, helping me shop for food seems sweet. Though is does not seem much, it does bring us closer.


When I got home, I unpacked the food that I had just bought. Then, when I unpack the Briyani that cost $5 each, my dad said that I was cheated. For just $5, the rice serving was so little. He said not to go there and buy it anymore. Though it tasted quite nice, the price was still too much for a serving like that.
