3 JANUARY..

Someone is on the plane back home from Europe.
Another friend of mine will soon cross the Causeway after a long train ride back from inland Malaysia.

To think of it,
While some people are coming home after a trip;
Others are going the opposite way.. preparing for a 'vacation' of their own.

A tale of contrasting fates perhaps?

Well, let me predict the future.. (Since Facebook is taking forever to finish uploading my photos).

4 JANUARY..

A group of people will be settling down in an Executive Suite near Pasir Ris (oh coincidentally its only a short jaunt down from the bus interchange) getting ready to cycle, mahjong and partaking in all sort of crazy antics for the next 2 days.

While.. The sad group of guys mentioned above will be waking up at a time when almost everyone else is still sleeping to sweat it out the whole day. They will be doing all sorts of insane stuff as well that is bound to tax both the mind and body (read - OCPT after AGR/IST/FT/Games) for the next 2 5 days.

5 JANUARY..

The lucky ones will be cooking their otahs, chicken wings, fishballs, crabsticks, corn, satay and what not over a charcoal fire while engaging in hearty banter, camwhoring, mahjong (still..), a game of cards etc with along with some new arrivals who are (mostly) a year older than them. It will be a time of catching up, fun and laughter in a light atmosphere under the dim moonlight..

Just a few miles away the survivors on exile island will be roasted under the scorching sun. Well, I think you can guess what they are doing. Yes, same old shit again.

I am quite a good fortune teller no?

Happened to think up this post while I was uploading last year's band chalet photos on Facebook. Doing so just brings back the memories. So much so that I can almost imagine myself warping through space-time back into the past to the instant the said photograph was taken.

Well, hope all the J3s (feels weird calling my batchmates that..) enjoy the day/night of relaxation! Hm.. Two from Saxas won't be there - They will be the unfortunate ones just a few miles away simply trying to survive so that they can step foot on the mainland once more.

So.. enjoy the BBQ and if you're on the beach, gaze skywards and think of us.. The ones who are stuck in a world of their own, the people who yearn to be by your side, looking at the same moon together with you..


Or.. if not the moon, the sun the following morning will suffice (:
