mugging away in a freezing cold library on a cheery and bright saturday afternoon surely has a way of making even the most determined and hardworking student heave a sigh of self-pity... even the butterflies look happier, flittering in the sunshine, around the colourful flowers, relaxed and carefree... and the koi fishes in the courtyard pond looks happier too, swimming round and round their little enclosed worlds...

but i'm going to the opening of the esplanade tonight! :) i'm going to join the 100,000 people there to see the fireworks and squeeze with the sweaty and kiasu crowds.. so that.. so that.. hahaha.. I CAN TELL MY GRANDCHILDREN NEXT TIME THAT I WAS REALLY THERE WHEN THEY OPENED THE ESPLANADE!! :D..

oh well.. lame... :p
