sunshine says

this past two months has been the best i've had in ages, but it definitely feels good to be back.

apart from the first day, where i conked out and missed a birthday dinner (sorry!). surprisingly, i've been living a more normal lifestyle. waking up at 1030 for breakfast at longhouse - think prawn mee, chicken rice, oyster omelette, cuttlefish, yu sheng. breakfast basically shouted "welcome back to singapore!". followed by this morning where i woke up thinking it was past 12, when it was only 0740, and the sleep hormones were gone.

makes me especially happy too, when i see sunshine getting more active. like how i woke up to find her sitting on my legs at 6am, or how she jumped out of the cage to play & vaguely played catching with me this morning. i guess she's a morning rabbit.

apart from that, the weather is giving me a headache, and i'm so glad i skipped town when the heat was worse!

Poland's really beautiful so far. I guess things tend to suprise you the most when you hold no expectations. It's all quite surreal, I feel like i've stepped into a fairytale, with horse drawn carriages, beautiful towers, candlelit restaurants and a bustling market square.

The day holds much excitement because we'll be visiting a small castle, followed by shopping. And the evening will be the highlight, because we've made a reservation at a michelin guide recommended restaurant! Plus, the prices are pretty decent compared to Italy & France.

It's time to start the day!

Just got back from Italy the day before & i'm leaving for poland in a few hours! Poland's going to be cold, oh my dear fingers & toes. Followed by Barcelona & Spain, so once again i'll be apart from my dear internet.

Italy was really amazing.

Oh gosh, i miss sunshine so much.

Okay, feeling the excitement for the trip!

Several happy things happened today.

1. I visited the weekly fair this morning, and we returned with delicious ribs for lunch, and flowers for the aging sister.

2. Made last minute arrangements to travel to rome on my birthday!

3. Had a sudden craving for ice cream, and so I ran (thanks to eager prompting that the mart was about to close) to the supermarket to buy a box of eight ice cream cones for only 0.99 euros! Absolutely yummy. The fact that i ran for it, increases the satisfaction.

4. I convinced ZM to play Hotel 626, cos i wanted to know what's the game about without scaring myself to death.

5. There's a tiny possibility we'll be having macaroons for dessert tmr!

5. ZM cooked princess pasta for dinner, and it was an absolute joy identifying the fairy tale shapes among my food.

The clock says its time for bed, the body's tired, but the mind's too filled with thoughts to rest.

I constantly feel like i've got an endless list of tasks to complete when in fact there's none. Or rather, mostly stuff that are way overdue but i procrastinate. What's ridiculous is that i am constantly searching for things to do, when i've got a hardrive full of unwatched movies, dramas and unplayed games.

Each night this charade plays itself out till the body waves the white flag. Its a constant battle between the mind and the body, its crazy.
