the four right chords can make me cry

human frailty.
went out for lunch with my gran today. she's looking better, healthier. but walking is still difficult, and she got so tired out today. i don't consider myself a hurried person, but really had to slow down so much walking with my gran. and the contrast is heighted in comparison to the orchard road throng. she doesn't have an appetite, but she ordered so much at crystal jade, and made me finish everything! (grandmas can make people do anything) duck and chicken porridge (she only took a few spoons), cha siew sou (i had to eat 2), chee cheong fun (i had to eat 2.5 out of 3 tiaos), carrot cake (2.5/3), and MUSHROOMS (yummo!). i know she wanted some ice cream, but cant eat much cos she's diabetic, so she bought me one even though i protested that i was too full already, and took one spoon from me. met my friend jingyin at robinson's! haha so cool, somehow i always meet her when i'm out, this is already the 3rd or 4th time.

daddy sent me to tuiton on his motorbike. ah... i remember now why i like bikes so much. had this most ridiculous huge grin plastered on my face the whole way. no other mode of transport for me! My dream is to bike from singapore all the way to thailand, right up north at chiang mai. i've bugged darren to go with me. I plan to go after i graduate, he'll finish poly by that time too, get two big tourers (africa twin, if we got the cash!). Thinking about it makes me smile. I want my exhaust burns, dusty nights of gruelling travel, getting lost and stranded. yeah.

you could start me off in the right direction, buy me a helmet, a guidebook, gloves, saddlebags, moto-lessons, a bike? hahahah.... goal 2008!
