Friday the 13th

Supposedly an unlucky day for some. 13 for me has been pretty good. So i think it will be a great day today. Sun is shining, birds are chirping (and trying to pinch my breakfast at the same time!), beautiful weather the entire day i hope. Yesterday was drizzling all day - no better way of describing the "rain". Its a persistent falling of little droplets of water. And when i say "little" i meant "very very tiny". Not like the London ones where it feels like a water spray (those you use on clothes) but slightly heavier. That kind where you feel kinda stupid being under an umbrella (especially since we are so used to heavy downpours in SGP, this is NOTHING), but you'll get wet nonetheless and then you really feel stupid for not opening an umbrella in the first place!

The world is so small. We met the other Singaporean on the island yesterday at L'Oriental Express by accident. (According to him, there is only 1 other Singaporean male but he's not here on a "permanent" basis) or perhaps not, cos the town itself is tiny and what better place to catch asians than at the chinese take-out place? Haha.. so he's a lawyer and has been here for 5.5 years. (amazing, they must pay him very well. else he must lurve the place.) Wife has gone back to Singapore tho, so 1 less kaki for me. But i guess given that i can hide at home and not want to go out for the entire day, not that great a loss lah. And you think i would turn sociable overnight just because i'm at a foreign place? Not likely.
