It was Saturday morning. I roused myself from sleep in the midst of the wailing morning alarm, half awake. Chong was still sleeping (like a pig) and it was 8.30am. Sunlight poured through the window, sparks bouncing off the floor. Time for a photozhoot! Screamed my rather dulled photographer’s instinct – I was without my camera for two weeks. That darling was sent for repairs.
Clips in complete disarray.
Walked along the corridor outside Aravid’s room. The clips of his clothesline were in complete disarray (well, whose wasn’t?). Great weather on Saturday morning reminded me that I need to get my laundry done as soon as possible, but those tiny little rain clouds at the corner of the sky told me not to. I shall leave my undone laundry to continue stinking the air until Sunday, I guess.
Nature
Walking around the campus was a little tiring. The hilly terrain had no mercy for my legs. The grass were still fresh from the morning dew. I kicked off my flipflops, my feet resting in the morning goodness. I scouted for a comfortable spot, and risking dirtying my khakis with dirt, I sat down clumsily and enjoyed 10 minutes to serenity.
Spider lilies and their anthers.
Spider lilies with their anthers floating in the wind. The soft glow from the morning sun made everything looking so dreamy and untrue. I resisted pinching myself in the cheek.
This is Singapore.
Sometimes I couldn’t help but agree that Singapore is all about being fine and efficient. We have these signs all across campus. They even strung banners along popular jaywalking areas that read JAYWALKING KILLS.
That’s all for this update! I’ll be writing about my new phone in the next update, so stay tuned, folks!
i can’t wait to read about your new phone. hehe.
i do notice that your weekend mornings are like nature bonding time. where you have nice serene moments with your camera. cool.
jasons last blog post..Just a small update
wait you forgot about the part you kept coming to my room cause you forgot some stuff :) btw thanks for the pineapple tarts/flowers! you are still gay!
I didnt know you’re an early-riser. Student usually will wake up quite late.
Just to let you know, working life is really tiring. I got to wake up at 630AM, got back from work at 5PM. Back from work, my ‘personal battery’ will be almost gone. That is my daily life. Although I wake up each day to work, I still have aim each day to accomplish certain thing.
Life can be quite meaningless if we have no aim for long time. If aimless for once in a blue moon, that will be allright. Let your brain rest a little bit.
Anyway, those picture taken in this post is really nice.
I don’t wake up that early on every weekend morning *sniggers* that Saturday morning was too good to be slept in! So I woke up voluntarily and headed for a short morning walk.
Sorry to hear about the tiring working life! It sucks to hear that you’re feeling all slugglish and full of inertia from the workload… I hope you’ll be fine soon! It’s good that you aim to accomplish something every day. Sometimes I wake up every day just to find myself late of lectures. After that, I ate, bathed and slept. What a life I have!
Yea I agree that sometimes we’ll need to take a step back, look at a whole picture, prioritize and revise our life goal and have a short rest…
those pictures are lovely, Teddy. and, I can’t wait for you to blog about your new phone! xD
sexy feet, btw. LOL.
@abdusfauzi:
Okay sure! But you’ve gotta wait though… I’m only free on weekends to write updates for the moment being. Blame it on the workload, ooof!
@jason:
Usually I’ll slept through weekend mornings, but last Saturday morning was so beautiful that I couldn’t help but wake up and embark on a short morning walk with my camera. Teehee! Do you wake up that early on weekend mornings by the way?
@Chongx:
Oh yea! I left my wallet in your room and I thought I lost it! But I only realised it after I’ve taken the photos. LOL! Now I know you have a weakness for pineapple pies / tarts / biscuits. Watch your back!
@Aisyah:
Thanks! I shall blog about it this weekend, so stay tuned! Anyway I love your revamped layout, looking very good on my widescreen laptop! Woots!
