Quite surprised i could squeeze so many activities into today.
This morning i went to at least 6 car accessory shops all over singapore to look for a suitable set of car seat covers. They are either too ex but nice design, affordable but lousy design, or affordable + nice design but non-matching colour to my partner, sighz. In these giant car accessory shops, there r so many things that i am tempted to buy, but fortunately, my wallet control skill is still pretty much up to standard.
This evening, I went strolling down orchard rd before meeting my ex-colleagues for a dinner at Crown Prince Hotel. Nice to meet them. After which, I headed down to ECP to meet the EVC guys for roller skatings. The ambience at ECP during night time is splendid - dark + peaceful + cooling, accompanied by the lightings from the ships in the sea. Blading down the cycling track at fast speed gave me a very relaxing and carefree feeling.
However, my spirit was pretty much dampened after the revelation of one of my EVC friends. There is this very funky and playful lady that i get to know in EVC. She looks like she is in her late 20s but is actually already in her mid 30s. She has always been acting like a child (an overaged one) and its only tonite, i realise she is actually divorced with 2 kids (8 yr and 5 yr old). She told me she was v sad tonight as her sons are finally gonna shift out from her house tommorow, after she has put in much 'struggle'.
I am surprised that i can actually be quite affected by her predicaments. Although I duno much abt the details, i decided not to ask too, for i duno how i shld react or respond after her replies. Its something that i really have no idea how i can do my part as a friend. Somehow, i feel that the willingness and spirit in me to 'help' others have also been greatly reduced over the past yr. I duno why. Perhaps nowadays i realise i am often not fit enough to help, or i feel i have enough problems of my own that shld be taking up most of my attention instead.
