This is Agent Amelie, reporting to you, live from Cafe Momentum - a cafe just a few doors down away from Peranakan Museum & The Substation. It's raining cats and dogs outside now, so I thought I'll stop by for a rest. Agent Amelie has covered 2 museums in 2hrs - Philatelic Museum & Peranakan Museum.
Let's break for a review on Cafe Momentum. It looks like a cool hangout place. You can doodle on the mahjong paper which act as the table cloth. Art pieces adorn the walls and you can actually buy them. There's also free wireless internet, so i'm here blogging. The ambience is nice to hang out and chill here. But, they've gotta improve loads on their food. I ordered baked potato wedges and was expecting some standard of presentation. It was a rude shock instead. Meagre slices of potato wedges 'splat' on this see-through glass plate. Plain. Totally unexpected from such an arty farty place, which just screams for creativity to flourish, really. And it costs $3.90. Much more expensive than KFC, so i'm making it up by using the computer for a while. I can't stay here for long anyway, cos I'm gonna zip off to SAM soon.
Now i wish my camera has some wireless function so i can hook up to the computer here and upload some pics! :p It'll be some time before i get another camera.

'That's it?! Tell me more, like what activities are you gonna engage in?'
Nothing? That's what was going through my mind. That was just a conversation about what we're gonna do during this long weekend.
I like having open-ended plans. Just fix a location to meet up with friends and make do with whatever we have there or can even do there. If any case that we really get bored, we can just move to another place a few hrs later! And i don't like meeting too many groups of friends in a day. Besides the fact that i don't have THAT many groups to
meet up with, i feel that i won't be enjoying as much cos there'll be just so little time with each group of ppl and i'll be thinking of the next appt because i don't want to be late.What looks so ordinary could actually be some delectable treat! Food philosophy which extends to life as well. i got a pack from my colleague today! yay! which totally made my day! and it's a short week next week! Yippee! Simple pleasures of life: Reese's!

what would you do, if you knew that it was your last day on earth? take a plane to US to gain one more day? reality is that you can't even predict what's going to happen next. life's boring? in this sense, i don't think so. life's boring cos we make it boring.
i flipped the straits times today and this first ten pages reported death. actually, it's been something like that for the past week already, with the exception on Man Utd's win in the English Premier League.

Instead of feeling elated, i felt weighed down. Expectations of me will just keep rising and I'm afraid i won't be able to keep up to them. Frankly at this point of time, I'm not happy with my work performance at all. And i don't know how to get over it. I'm not exactly at the point of drowning. It's just the premonition of the iceberg in front of the vessel. Will i be able to steer the vessel clear away from the iceberg? Will i be able to scale that high wall that's in front of me? Perhaps the wall seems high because i'm too near it. I should take a step back.

a tea table, a slice of cake and a cup of coffee. 2 deck chairs. tea-light holder with a candle inside. accompanied with a good storybook or the laptop or nothing even. lying on the deck chair with sunglasses on, soaking in the afternoon sun, if it's in the day. staring at the night sky, finding the orion belt, if it's at night. my ideal unwind.
