days of the ordinary girl..

Life is kinda boring.

Guess I was too used to life then..

When i meet Desmond like almost every other day.

Although we're always hanging around the East side - it sure beats staying at home.

Thank god i found a new place - the library. LOL

It's a great place - i finally remember the joy of reading books, the urge to turn all the pages.

Well, i guess i should make good use of this opportunity to read more interesting stuffs.

Still, thank you my dear friends. Especially Judith, Nsqh and lihong who has taken like 2-3 days a week to meet up. Let's hope we wont grow horizontally!

I hope not.

And what happened to me wanting to run =/

Seriously.

This is one commercial that literally takes my breathe away.

Who knew Avril Lavigne could look so demure?

Really makes me itch to grab any Canon camera..

If only every camera takes such beautiful pictures..

Just in case you haven't caught it on tv, please click on the video =)

Sound track: Avril Lavigne - Innocence

Was feeling pretty lazy one Sunday.. And didn't know what to do, or who to meet.. So, i decided to drop by Bedok Library to sit there and chill..

Wasn't really crowded when i was there - surprisingly. Pleasantly quiet too! How nice!

C'mon. You know life can't be all smooth-sailing don't you? True enough, the silence was soon replaced by incessant chatters, kids running around AND the library's announcement asking people to lower their volume.

It's public, so i guess i can't expect much. Then came 2 old men with a china woman in her thirties or was it twenties?

They're treating the place like a coffee shop - chatting rather loudly in Mandarin too! For the sake of not ruining my ZEN atmosphere now - i shall not dwell into what they're talking about. It's not pleasant at all.

Why can't they speak Hokkien? At least i would be spared from understanding most of what they said. Then they start to get on my nerves AND i found it a struggle to focus on my book. Being the typical Singaporean, we start things off with small hints.

Shhh. Shhh....

Still no improvements.

SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...

Still no improvement okay?

I don't think they are THAT hard of hearing cause they're only separated by one old lady. At least the old lady empathized with me and gave me the resigned look. Like - how obvious do i have to go to make them shut up?

Living as a true blue Singaporean....

What's next?

COMPLAIN LA!

I went to approach a librarian nicely to ask her to ask the 3 of them to lower their volume.

Whoops. I guess that was embarrassing enough for them that they left the library promptly.

(Not without staring at me before leaving of course.)

Good riddance!

Even the old lady commented that it was a nice move! :DD

Then she shook her head and said China lady right?

I nodded my head but i was thinking of the ah peks.

lao tee ko

Library of all the places \0/
