The 10 days without parents

As many of you would know, my parents went for their zillionth honeymoon trip t0 Japan not too long ago. In other words...

  • i had no parents to report to for the 10 days
  • i drove to work almost everyday! shiok!
  • the whole house was pretty much mine so could easily invite  friends over to chill & catch up rather than go out
  • i went for salsa social THREE times during this period (think that's a record for me), and manage to come home after 1pm. It was great meeting the same peeps over the 3 days :)
  • bf and i spent some quality time together and hence the following pics!

Bf and I went to explore Telok Blangah Hill. In fact, we actually went there twice in a day!

Afternoon was cool and eventually got rainy. and it was the nice type of rain. the type that i love. *grins* windy, smell of rain in the air... was so tempted to wait for the rain to pour while outdoors but bf wasn't too attracted to the idea of getting drenched. haha

i was really fascinated with this old man. he was alone and using this old camera ... and it looks as if he's used to being alone. wonder what's in his head when he climbs up this hill and sees this scenery. this led to several other thoughts.. bout parents when they grow old, how my dad will be like when he retires.. will he be something like that? on a side note.. did also wonder if i was using a film camera like his, what shots would i end up taking since i have limited shots?

Moving on, we next walked to the nearby Forest trail/tree-top walk. Didn't really walk it cuz i think it led to Kent Ridge Park or sth. another day perhaps..
