ok once again, im sick ): it's a disgusting feeling to be sick! dearest jules is unwell too. oh wells i guess eileen will be sitting alone with kenneth. poor thing.

anw i shall blog about a very clinche topic : a trip to the kopitiam. haha it's really interesting when i was there just now to force some food into my system before taking my medication. sigh. i sat alone at the table painfully eating my food with an ongoing bad headache, trying my best to taste the food. the faces at the tables beside me changed twice before i finally finished half my plate of chicken rice, which i had no choice but to eat.

i saw this little boy doing his math homework in the primary school math workbook. i cannot remember when was the last time i've seen such conscientious work. the carefully drawn straight lines for math statements, the three columns for working, correction and statements, and the oh-so-nostalgic model template. has been eons ago since the plastic template with rectangulars boxes of different length with triangles and circles last appeared in my life.

as he slowly but surely wrote his statements word by word, number by number on the painstakingly drawn straight lines, making sure each character is clear and upright, the excruciating sound of his mother's jarring laughter pierced the daze i was in as i stared mesmorized. my gaze swung across to her lah teh-ing and laughing at her friend's second rate jokes while rudely banging the table in an attempt to show that the joke was laughable. the table banging made her son write outline.

as he reached for his eraser with germany flag on it, he carefully erased with tongue in cheek. oh-so-cute! i offically declare i fell in love with him as he smiled in sastisfaction to himself after erasing the mistake. in him i saw quiet strength and peace i havn't seen for a long time. im in love (:

it's different when you're alone. you tend to observe and see more without having the incessant task of constantly trying to entertain the people you're with. of course, it's a different case when i'm with close friends. then, i can bask in the trueness of the saying: silence is golden. it's nice to witness the simple pleasures of life.
