Respite
Sitting quietly on the open deck of Vivo City, I had a sudden epiphany as to why I enjoy these quiet moments. They remind me of a time when entertainment was literally free and easy: Sunday afternoons at the beach, with a one-pot meal packed to feed a clan; weekdays after school cycling at the void deck.
Today I have the afternoon off (again!) and am having a bite before I head home for tea with my family.
I'm breathing in the cool breeze, totally enjoying the greyish cloud-lined horizon. Little birds hop about the wooden deck foraging for scraps. A steady stream of tourists and families strolls by. Children plead to wade in the ankle-deep water. Schoolgirls take jump shots. A splashing good time is had by all. I can see the iconic cable cars and Sentosa monorail from where I am seated. Planes fly by high above mechanical cranes gliding in smooth movement.
This is my respite from the unforgiving air-con and the noise of work life. Magical.

Day Off
Oh! The joy of taking the afternoon off after a morning of hard work.
It's a crisply warm day with the sun shining but also a cool wind blowing.
I'm going to have lunch with my dad, do some housework to keep the house as dust-free as possible, and get down to packing up a whole bunch of scrapbook goodies from Chelle.
And some guitar-strumming and bike-riding will be in order too!

The Lorax Movie
There's music, there's rhyme, there's Dr Seuss.
So will I watch it, the movie, you bet that's a yes.
With Danny Devito as Lorax-y as can be,
And Betty White as Gramma.
Oh there's so much to see.
Cute fish, talking bears and beautiful trees...
All I need now is to find a child
To watch the movie with me!
