the winding road
Monday, March 5, 20123:57 PM
Each morning at 7, I would get ready for work, hitched a ride from my dad, take a bus half way, finish work around 5 plus, home an hour later, have dinner, do a little reading, watch my dramas and get ready for bed. And the routine repeats. But on certain school days, I would be home much later.
As much as I would like to complain on how my life isn’t how I planned it to be, I know I should be thankful for being alive and I know I should make the best out of it. I know in life, there are seldom clear-cuts beginnings, those moments when we can, in looking back, say that everything started. Yet there are moments when fate intersects with our daily life, setting in motion a sequence of events whose outcome we could never have foreseen.
Who would know that the certain people around you, isn’t who you think they are and yet you still accept them with open arms because they are your friends. Mistakes are always in the making, no matter how much you try to avoid it.
There are the days where you feel the blues and it gets worst when everything isn't how you want it to be and you needed a friend to hear you rant out your frustration. I for one am lucky to have a friend. Boyfriend or no boyfriend, she has always been there for me since the first day one when I met her. Not once have I ever heard her talking about the misunderstanding she had with her bf nor have I heard her talking about her frustrations, each time when I call/text her to vent my anger. I am glad I have at least her I could call upon. She never fails to response to me even when she is busy.
Don't get me wrong, I don't lead a boring life either Just two Saturdays ago, my mom, my cousins, aunts and myself, we went to watch Kumar’s stand-up comedian performance at esplanade. My mom has always been telling me on much she would like to watch Kumar’s performance and I decided to get the tickets. Since my dad isn’t a big fan of him, I decided to ask my cousins and aunts to come along.
A little after lunch, I drove to pick them up and parked at esplanade (the parking was crazy expensive). After the show, we had an early dinner, walked around the nearby mall before heading to Marina Bay Sand for dessert. As usual, my aunts and mom were arguing on which shortest road to take and we ended up at Habourfront. At that point of time, I should have just trusted my instinct.
Kumar’s performances were worth every cent. Dressed in sari, he is always making you laugh from the start to the end. Sharing riotous real-life stories and jokes on growing up Indian here in faraway Singapore. Interested? His upcoming performance with other celebrities (Gurmit Singh, Hosien Leong, etc) will be in June/July and if you happen to watch his previous performances, you would be given a 10% provided if you keep the ticket, on top of the 10% for HSBC credit card holders :)
Oh. I am not promoting. I am just excited for his next performance and would like to share them.
