Disillusioned in Singapore
It could be the delayed E Coli action - the virus probably incubated and finally gone full blast (common word nowadays) after my Delhi trip. My stomach behaved like an old washing machine since yesterday and goodness, it is still going overtime today. Whatever masala left, I hope, should be in the sewers by end of today. Man, I was knocked out since Sat and spoiled what was supposed to be a splendid weekend in between my travels. URGH! And one of the Indian mangoes wasn't sweet.
So glad to see Ad + Jo after 4 days. Especially Jo, who was in top form over the weekend - talking, smiling and crying loudly. He emoted so smoothly that he could well be the next Jack Neo/Jim Carrey/Jerry Seinfeld, if he wishes to be. Like what his milk mum says, he's really "The Great Pretender".
Leaving for Hong Kong tomorrow. No masala nightmares albeit the recent news had also featured dim sum in a very bad light. Well, at minimum, I would have a splendid 10-course dinner at the awards for sure. Will poot Oreos and order for room service rest of the time.
Travelling tends to make you very disillusioned while you're in Singapore. From the splendour of Taj Mahal back to the plain-jane HDB flat could be real disheartening. Then again, the beautiful sights overseas could not compare to the smile of my cute little boy or the comforting embrace of my lovely wife. So you're stuck in a paradox...unresolved until something materialises.
Meanwhile, take care, people! Looking forward to a smashing long weekend. And please do join us for the conclusion of "God's Workman" theme - the godmum of Jo better turn up after all she wrote on our tagboard.
