When the bells ring

Bread and caramel don't go together at all! It's true, I tried. Unlike bread with kaya or nutella or jam. My Brittany caramel is really nice though, I just need to find a compatible food to go with that's all. Which was why I bought frozen crepes from Carrefour. The bad thing about it is the after-effect of being microwave-d. It's just a little.. soggy. Not nice :( I need pancakes. Perhaps that would be good.

Went to Kak Lin's wedding on Sunday. Was nice seeing relatives again. I think I'm very much closer to my second cousins than my direct cousins from my dad's side, like seriously. The thing I like about my dad's side of the family is that it's too huge that I see various faces in just one event and I'll end up figuring how we're related. I love to see how the connection works. My mom's side is too petit, I kinda know everyone haha.

That's Kak Lin. She's my dad's cousin's daughter.
So that makes her my 2nd cousin?
So happy for her.

With momster. We stayed through the wedding and ate like every other time there.
Yummy food.

This is Tina, another of my second cousin. It's great that we're hitting off so well, guess it's because we're of the same age tooo.

My niece. Most of my cousins (paternal) are like married with kids.
She loves the Twilight series haha.

There's always 1001 things to do

Now, I supposed most Singaporean bloggers will harp about the flood at Orchard Road. I shall skip that, although I'd like to add that I actually woke up this morning (11 am) feeling so good because the weather's nice. Little did I know for two hours there was a flood at Orchard Road and to think that such occurences are rarity. Ok I hope they would start doing something to the drainage system. Working at Media C. for 2 days was quite an experience, except that Aiman and I did nothing much on Sunday and we kind of did a million more things on Monday because we had ongoing tasks to do. Plus we've met exciting people and also, hmm, interesting people (of whom we secretly gave nicknames for us to refer to). I suddenly thought of The Devil Wears Prada and I actually wonder how the life of assistants are in this line of work, are they really treated like shit? Is that a part of climbing up the ladder in this career path? Ok random. The awesome thing is really to see how they swi...

Dumbledore

I know this is probably another random entry. But I'm excited for Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows movie and I suddenly thought about the day when I read through the final pages of Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince. I must admit, I was actually mourning for the great Albus Dumbledore when he died (or got killed rather). Not the kind of mourning that goes on for days, just a momentary one. And I pictured in my mind, how everyone in Hogwarts were mourning for their beloved Headmaster and how solemn the environment must have felt to the extent that I actually thought that the bedroom where I was, in this tiny, little Singapore, felt equally dull and grey as well. It's impressive how characters come alive like that and reel me into the world of stories. I even had texted Revathi about how sad I felt when I was done with the book. Pardon for the melodrama, but it's the power of narration, and of course the brilliant writer herself, J.K Rowling. And certainly, the mo...
