Today I learnt of the demise of an acquaintance I met at the start of the year. He passed away last month. I only met him once but it's still hard to picture him, so cheeky and vibrant, now gone from this world. It was just but months ago when I saw him so full of life. He was only 21. He was a funny guy and even as I look at his photos, I can still remember the way he laughed.

You will be missed. Rest In Peace.

Today was one screwed day.

I went to print my report at Sunshine plaza. The shop advertised that they offered binding services. But after I printed they said I had to go to another one of their outlets so I had to hunt for it all over the place. I ran outta cash after printing so I had to look for an atm.

Ran to the fuckin atm but it was out of order so I ran back and told the auntie I'd pay her back another day since I was frickin late for my presentation at the office and the nearest atm was miles away. And along the way my bag strap broke.

Caught a cab down to Newton but the cab driver couldn't really understand me. I kept telling him Exit B of Newton mrt station where Yah Hoon was waiting but he kepting asking 'what b?' in Chinese. He sent me to Exit A. ==

That is a lot of fucked up things to happen in a time frame of 2 hours.

Thank god we made it in time for the presentation. Sheesh.

Went down to town to engrave the lighter Fiona & I got for Daddy for his birthday then went to OC to look for Belle. Walked around 313 to look for a new bag but I didn't find one. :(

Will be (almost) free the entire weekkkk! We don't have to go down to the store or office. Will be working at our own timeeeeee. :D Gonna meet Yah Hoon in town tomorrow for market research. :)

Often we are blind to the truth staring right back at us.
Or maybe we just refuse to see it, letting ourselves drown in denial.
Maybe we are even afraid of it. Because the truth can be harsh and we'd rather wrap ourselves up in the bliss of not knowing while we continue to live in delusion.

But hey, a dream is a dream and when we can no longer keep up the pretense, we just gotta pry open our eyes and wake up to reality.

So that's what I'm trying to do right now.

Having writer's design student's block now.

I've been sketching for my FYP but all that I've managed to churn out have either similar shapes or silhouettes. Bah.

Off day today. Went to the Chinese gardens with Fiona cos she wanted some pictures of man made landscape for her assignment. It was so tranquil over there. Until we heard some young dudes blasting Sean Kingston, that is. Headed down to Dhoby Ghaut for dinner. Just Acia is awesome. Good food, affordable price and freeflowwwwwwww. :)

Started work at the fourskinstore at the Heeren yesterday. Ah well, familiarity is once again thrown out the window.

The merchandise and store layout are generally the same but yet somehow different. The people there are nice though. And there were some familiar faces so it was quite alright. :)

Work tomorrow again. But what I really wanna do is to huddle in some corner in Starbucks and sketch. Or read.
