Sunday
I was completely astonished at the sheer volume of rain that poured
down over Singapore yesterday. From 2.30am on Saturday night/Sunday
morning, when I finally slept, till I woke up at 9.30am, through the
whole morning, and afternoon, until 11pm, it kept raining and raining,
not a drizzle, but a steady downpour significantly wet-inducing and
puddle-forming to make driving a hazard and walking a soggy affair. I
was put-out by the weather cos I'd been looking forward to my Sunday
swim, but my day wasn't a wash. Indeed, it turned out to be a very
good day, in spite of, and to some degree because of the weather. No I
didn't get to swim, but I did run on the treadmill, have breakfast
with my mum and brother, lunch and shopping with Serene, Pan Liang and
Yun Jie, dinner at home, and finally Star Wars Episode III - Revenge
of the Sith on DVD in my living room with Maryam, Steph and Kaarsten.
Whee! In a way it's a good thing I didn't go swimming, cos I got to
spend more time with people at Bishan, eating, shopping and eating
some more (ice cream overload - result: sore throat today). And it was
also fun walking through puddles and sloshing up water (I wore cheery
pink flip-flops that dried quickly and did not squish; joy!). And I
didn't leave my umbrella at Junction 8! (well I almost did, but I
remembered in time and Pan Liang and Yun Jie gallantly returned to
Sakae Sushi to retrieve it for me, while Serene and I ordered ice
cream). Yup, it was a cool, wet, friend-filled day. Just what I needed
;)
