There are times when you begin to reminisce the past in Singapore. It isn't the Waygu beef at Gordon's, neither is it the drooling over the entire array of branded goods in Taka and Paragon. It's the any-other-day in my life in Singapore. Sitting in front of my lappie in bed, chatting with the peeps of that same small lil island, slacking with my cuppa cafe latte from Starbucks or Coffee Bean and having my myojo cup noodles for lunch/dinner. Impossible to acheive that here though... Nevertheless, something relatively similar today. =)
Back on that island, it was tee and shorts with the aircon on and rotting on the mattress with the lappie and the tv infront of me. My 16 pillows all around me, though my butt hurts at times after lying on that thin mattress for awhile... It's still cozy and comfy in that small lil pig sty of mine.
Today, here I am, in this neutral country. Lying on my bed, with my suit (I still have lessons later on...) and stockings on. And I was chatting with the peeps of that small lil island, and I had the best cuisine of my life... hahas* yes, it surpasses the unforgettable plate of truffles spaghetti. my cup of instant noodles. Flavour? LAKSA. =) hahahas* If you are thinking about some other laksa in my previous post, uh uh, nopes. I was practically slurping the soup and noodles, and would have gobbled down that entire styrofoam cup as well if it was edible. hahahas* i always thought that patriotic national day themed songs were more cliched than anything else. Yet, I was blasting the song through my laptop awhile ago.
Everyone grows as time goes by. The only misconception that most of us have is when we tend to assume that we all grow to be more independent, more mature, more adult like. I'm tired of being independent, mature (i'm not really there yet anyways...) and adult like. Having to wear suits and stockings all day is the last thing i want to face in Singapore. We were once, so excited each time investitures and debate competitions came, clammering around the council room getting our blazers out of the wadrobe (other than the stench of course...). If i had a choice, i would have thrown the blazer into the garbage.
I seem to have grown to be more reliant and childish (disregard the fact that i still am obsessed over cartoon characters at this age). How i wish i could hug my dad and mum now. pretty disgusted how pup calls me sweetie pie everytime he sees me. I want them to bring me out shopping like how they did when i was young. I'd sacrifice all my MOS and pubbing nights with them. I'd go round the hawker centres eating with them. I'd do everything that I usually don't in Singapore.
I love them loads.
I want to be back in Singapore. =)
