I went to a condominium near Newton and reminded me of Bert’s place where he stayed and was nearby; the condo I went was all white with serenate surroundings as I walked past the pool; this time, I saw Gina, one of the HODs whom we had went to Lunar with after the company event at Microbrewery a few months back.

I saw that her DOB is in 1981 which was actually not…and she was married? Not that I know of, but an album in her FB shows that he partner was Bert, named as “Always yours” as it described in her FB relationship status.

The setting was such that I was going to her place and attending some BBQ event that was held that “their” place…quite a surprise somehow.

I had previously awoken at 5:48am and went back to sleep; most likely is a recovery of undone rest from a stressful day yesterday.

7:30am, time to get off to work
It was an heavy headed morning for me as I could feel the dread of my workplace. It had been suppressed on account of the “variable” I could do with my voluntary long hours, but it is really high time to move on to prevent growth from being capped; for the past 3 years.

I overheard some discussions among colleagues about the bonus they’re getting, being lesser compared to a few years ago when it was a considerable amount. That word of “bonus” ticks me right from the first syllable…

The day still has to go on but the dark chakara seems to be emitting out once again…I hope I don’t have to seal myself in work fully to make it up to myself.

I did share a little about the shortened lunch that was not exercised with example from the top with Elaine…though nothing said from her, it’s well appreciated from within.
I was taking some scenes of landed properties near Tembeling Road and somehow, my kitlens could zoom out tlll it became flush with A500's body.

Soft morning sun and the quiet surroundings greeted me when I was in the shooting action.

The first day after the 31st milstone...and back to work.

A few of my colleagues were talking about why I was taking leave last Friday and later deduced that it was my birthday; no presents received at work, and a pleasant surprise from sis when I got home. Didn't have time to open the presents so decided to leave it as wrapped and took a photo of it before placing it somewhere prominent where I can see and unwrap when I have time.

It's a shortened week in view of the upcoming Hari Raya.
Finally a Sunday and it marked the date where I turn 31.

It'll be an earlier night as we decided not to watch Changi Haunted, which is a local production with the setting identical to that of Blair Witch project. Might not be worth the ticket price afterall.

Time to get an early rest tonight.
Appeared in the old house that had the setting of that of the Soong sister's house in Singapore; but this time, neither dilapilated nor abandoned. Surrounding was a town that was filled with life, carrying the aura of the lifestyle during that era.

Suddenly the scene came back to today's, leaving the house in its dilapilated and abandoned state and when I went in, and saw a mynah which I deliberately cornered it so as to catch it. In order to prevent it pecking me, I wore a carbon-fibre armoured glove to catch it.

When I was at my desk later, the mynah had turned into a humanoid creature which was harmless - looking like a mini yeti. It walked around and had that cuteness of the sugar glider which was prohibited pet in Singapore.

7am, it's a Saturday morning
The late awakening after a deep sleep under the constant cool jet from the wind…though a short day but had proved pretty tiring as I did some errand the previous night.

Saw myself in a place that looked like Pu Yi’s old place, narrower main gate and passageway. There was a dog which shyed away from us when asking it to come in and play ; somehow reminded me of Isabel – dearie’s primary school friend’s place in Chai Chee, one of the older, yet cosy estates locally as the dog also reminded of their pet, zaizai.

It’s such a peaceful moment as I have always enjoyed the company, the warmth that their family share when I went to their place sometime back…

Third knock on the door, 7:40am and I have to go to work.
