Sometimes... I wonder whether my grandmother has dementia. She is just so creative. She thought someone was going to pick her up. So, she gathered together all her belongings. She needed a rope to tie them all together but could not find one. So, she plucked off all the leaves of my mother's money plant and used the vine (or the money plant's stem) as a substitute for a rope. My... my mother was pretty mad. U can touch anything except her precious plants.

A little kindness from a total stranger made my day today. As I was cycling back from bedok interchange, the stopper of the bicycle got stuck. So I had to wheel the bike back. Was feeling utterly miserable when a person asked me whether I knew whether the stopper was down. And I told him yes... It is stuck and thus I cannot ride it. He told me that the stopper was locked and proceeded to unlock it for me without me even asking him to help me. How this warmed my heart. There are still kind Singaporeans in this world. It filled my miserable, hollow and empty heart with joy, laughter and happiness. The world is a beautiful place.
