When coincidences become ugly

Last night, I was unsettled by something I found out. I couldn't believe it, but somehow, I could feel (not see) it coming. All through this week, and especially yesterday afternoon, I just wasn't truly at ease, and then everything crumbled. I've never experienced so many coincidences in my life, and it scares me.

And then, last night, right there and then, I could only stop what I was doing, and let it sink in. Today, I woke up with the exact same feeling as I did when I finally drifted off to sleep last night. But today, I also woke up with new resolve - that everything else will have to go on. So today I will pick up the tutorials I left lying around my desk, today I'll still go for steamboat with the Nuspe people, today I'll make up for last night's lost of time and sanity. So despite plans to wake up early for a run being ruined by not being able to sleep, I still cooked myself lunch today.

Chinese New Year is coming. I never liked it. Besides all the food (which is a far cry compared to Mooncakes anyway), it's devoid of feeling. I'm fine with every single one of my relatives, but it seems so empty when we see each other once a year, and sit there, exchange Mandarin Oranges, red packets, and then look for things to say. And you end the day feeling a bit richer, but a lot more tired, bored, sapped. I'd so much rather sit at home, and spend the day like any other ordinary day, with my real family, doing ordinary things.

Manda - let's go for Teh Bing during one of the CNY holidays ok? =) I miss Ya Kun Teh Bing, Mos Burger Teh Bing and I miss you!

I've a sudden craving for Bakerz Inn's Cheesecake! I used to love Tiramisu, but in time, I'll learn to hate it.
