One week is the count of days I have not laid my hands on any keyboards in this hostel com lab. And one week is the count of days I have not the intention of putting up some words on this page. This is what the upcoming national exams(yes, I just refuse to use
the A'ss) have done to me - no piano, no procrastination, no blogging. But everything will eventually snap, and that includes my marathon of monotony. So here I am today, on a Saturday, doing all I haven't been doing for the past one week.
Blogging, procrastinating.
Despite having to repeat the whole cycle again everyday, this week was still enjoyable nonetheless. "It's the company that counts", and it's definitely the company that counts this time.
A week definitely well spent, I'd think. I discovered so many new hangouts and interesting places during our study breaks. Due to selfishness I shall not disclose my favourite studying place for the week XD All I 've gotta say is, that place is very much secluded and isolated, making it condusive (that is, if you have a partner with you). Cam whoring sessions and cool photos aside, there were many interesting discoveries too. Such as there is this Nikon Mura Jap restaurant at the Basement in Grand Cathay. Sushis priced at just 99cents per plate. And there are many other variety of Jap style cooking too! Although it's pay-as-you-eat, it's definitely value for money if you are not going for buffets. Oh, and they must have imported dozens of bamboo sticks from China, according to our postulation, because the partitions and the walls were made of bamboo sticks hahaha! It's really a dining place with ambience, since it's dark, cosy, and the food looks cute. No kidding. I was so fascinated by these 'Ika Balls' that I demanded their photos be taken using Ricky's phone.
Then Thursday was a fateful and eventful day, we concluded. As we were about to cross the road to Kopitiam nearby, a motorcyclist was knocked down right BEFORE MY EYES. Fortunately it was just a minor hit, and that the motorcyclist wasn't pinned under his vehicle. So casualty count: the motorbike only. In less than an hour, after we left Kopitiam, we saw police lights flashing on the same road. Being ba gua people we walked down the road to see what happened. Another accident, yes, and it involved three cars - a Merz cab and two other cars. The Merz cab's front was completely damaged, and there were broken glass everywhere around the area. Fortunate enough, all three vehicles involved were cars, so the drivers and passengers were all not hit. Casualty count: zero. Can you imagine, two traffic accidents ON the SAME ROAD in LESS THAN ONE HOUR?
I love the moments in the piano shop last night.My next big thing I want to own:
A grand piano in my living room.
