090909

A crazy resolution I made before leaving Singapore for Paris 2 years ago...
Was to be married on 9th Sept 2009.

Totally forgot about that until Catherine pointed out the date on the receipt of my lunch in the canteen.

It didnt bother me, often we make some stupid targets and half the time we dont achieve them anyway.

But then I did the mistake of calling my mum who had probably been preparing a prep talk for me since weeks ago. It was delivered in a 3 mins pretty well rehearsed lines. I understood that I am supposed to be looking hard for a job now, stop traveling around and instead spend time looking for a husband and have a kid soon.

For not living the life she would like me to, my normal day at work was disturbed.

Exhausted from over working, all I wished was to get my work done so that I could get home before 9pm for once.

And I miss Cao a lot, still cant believe she had left us. I remembered writing her a bdat card in Secondary school that we would be forever friends. Cao, you will always be in my heart and I will find you the day I can reach you in your new world. See you again.

Dear: Same right here, don't worry too much about getting married. I am kind of giving up my hope already...:P

Love you and take care, will write you more.

Worry not, all in good time as should be.

'Tis almost the weekend in SG, and I'm still hunting down the moon for a good howl.

Take care!

(and absolutely no running in whatever woods!)

Ciao!
