where thoughts materialise.

So we're into the sixth version of my blog after the last version hung around for a year or so.

Now, a bit of info on this image. This photo was taken one lovely spring afternoon, featuring the iconic Old Well from the UNC Chapel Hill campus. I would like to think of this image as a tribute to my time in UNC Chapel Hill, the awesome friends I made and the memories I now hold dear.

A milestone in my life indeed.

I've dropped the tagboard cos its useless and taking eons to load. But thanks to Angela who helped me set it up, I still do like and will miss the pink interface.

So yeah, it's the sixth one you fellas!

Yours.

tropical esplanade

I'm just waiting for the noise in the house to settle down, settle like dust till i'm imperturbable.
It's almost ten. Gonna try to complete this post within 15 minutes cos im so tired now. It has been a tiring day but a day well spent it was.

Okay, i gotta explain why i added this picture of the esplanade, which i took back in june. This pic simply accentuates the essence of today. A tropical bliss. Today gives me many reasons to be happy or simply contented with life.

To be awaken by the sun trying to penetrate those eyelids, and not to be awaken by the alarm clock is bliss.
To be able to shower in daylight and not worry about the time is bliss.
To wander as i please, time not holding me back or limiting my freedom, is bliss.
In another words, an off day from NS is bliss.

The highlight of my day would definitely be the swim at my aunt's condo.
I was contemplating between the public jurong east pool beside my place and my aunt's private pool. And boy was i glad i chose the latter.
I had the most fun in the pool, even though i was swimming alone.
Firstly, the setting. Twas a Bali-Java styled pool. Rustic and laidback. The skies were cloudless. The sun was a tropical hot. The swimming pool had no one but me. Bliss.
Aside: See how it links to the whole recurrent thematic element of this post?
And i had the privilege of doing whatever i wanted, without worrying bout public glare.
Besides from the obvious (hint: swimming), i had the liberty to try to part the swimming pool with my arms like what Moses did to the red sea, float in a backstroke position in the middle of the pool spinning round and round like a chicken carousel in the microwave. A very skinny chicken that is. Basically doing stuff that would render me insane at a public pool.
And through that stupidity, I got a tan! Bliss. Now how cool is that, tell me.

You know what's funny? Funny how people need to remove that public perception away from their mindsets before truly letting their guard down to be what they truly wanna be.
And what's funnier? The so called public perception almost doesnt exist at all. Nobody remembers things like that.
And the funniest part? I ramble and preach bout this yet i fall prey to this phenomenon
all
the
time.

my week started off well. i intend to keep it this way. bliss.
