Hi everyone, I am back in Singapore after few packed days back in Jakarta. Went to visit my grandma, then to visit our newest family member, my now 10-day-old cousin, Ellaine Permata Kurniawan. Cute as all baby always is, she’s my uncle’s first daughter. After that, we went to visit a new office space that my parents rented, brainstorming ideas on how to organize the office layout and such. At night, I used Microsoft Office Visio to draw a floor plan for the office layout. It looks pro as those you usually see in a marketing office, I tell you, hahaha… And oh yes, it was raining that night. heavily.
As my parents had expected, the very next morning, my house was flooded, so we spent our early Sunday to move things higher, stacking boxes and things in the house with pallets of woods etc, just to make sure that we are prepared in case the sky decided to pour its water down to earth again Sunday night.
For dinner, I went out with my former-high-school friend to La Piazza, then visit our former high school principal, Bu Elika. We chatted in her house until midnight, I sent my friend back home before reaching my house close to 1 AM. Back at home, I continued drawing sketches for the new office floor plan, before concasted at I-don’t-know what time.
Monday is the sole purpose I went to Jakarta, so I woke up early yesterday, went to meet people and talk here talk there, sign here sign there, things that won’t interest you guys. Zoom back few hours later, and I am back to Singapore, reaching here at 10.45 PM.
Upon reaching Singapore, I was thinking, should I be taking cab, or just take the MRT and bus?
I risk myself taking MRT and bus, had to wait for 15 mins before I departed from Changi Airport at 11 PM. Knowing that it’s impossible to reach Clementi to catch the last bus 184 at 11.38 PM, I decided to stop by Bugis, praying that I will not miss 960 last bus. I reached Bugis around 11.40 PM, walked up opposite Bugis Junction, and the 960 bus reached at the moment I reached there, or rather, I reached at the moment 960 arrived. Whatever. I hopped on the bus, settled myself, and few seconds later, I raised two thumbs up, stared at the night sky, and said, “You are just great, Lord”.
