I met the most adorable cab driver last night, and he was such a sweetie. He made sure I was waving to him from the inside of the gate before he drove off. Never mind that he stopped at FairPrice Xpress at one of the petrol stations to look for rock sugar ('cos he was boiling bird nest for his daughters), told me his life story - his father owned a hardware store but he never took a single cent from him. He showed me his family's picture and how handsome he was last time. His eldest daughter graduated from NUS law and his youngest graduated from ACJC and is a year 1 uni student now. (I think I might have encouraged him at the last bit though. I told him I couldn't get into NUS law and I was from VJ and I'm a year 1 too.) and gave me a 15 minute mini lecture on why we should hold faith and goodness in our hearts before seeking religion outside my home. He charged me 4 bucks for the ride 'cos he forgot to stop the meter when he went searching for rock sugar and he's a man of integrity and he lived near Kembangan and knew that the ride from Arthur Road to Telok Kurau Lorong H would cost no more than 4 bucks plus midnight surcharge, and that's all that matters. No cab-driver has ever charged me 4 bucks for a ride before, except during those secondary school times when the tk flautists went parkway for lunch and had 15 minutes to rush back to school by 1pm to fall in (it cost us $2.80 in total) and the ride I once took from the St Pat's bus stop which set me back by $3.50 (so stupid I know, but the 155 wouldn't come and it was too late to walk home via park connector). He really is the sweetest cab-driver around. Like an aged cherub.(:
Alright enough about the cab-driver. (Oh he's a karate black-belt too!) Anyways most of my Saturday was spent studying in Coffee Master's. It such a warm, comfy place and there's this little corner where you can sit and people-watch. Its a good place for studying alone. Hm.
Oh and I stayed up and finished reading the book WeiBaby lent me last night. Okay technically he didn't lend me, I took it out of his bag. Dammit I
know
I should be concentrating and revising for the test on Monday but damn, I do love my fiction so, and David Gemmell writes a mean fantasy book. On a random note, the astonished look on a guy's face when they find a girl sharing their love for fantasy is quite amusing.
On yet another random note, my tag board still says 403 Forbidden whatever whatever blah blah whatever whenever I'm at home. Its getting kind of irritating, argh.

Yay its raining. I love rainy weather, as long as I'm at home, with my windows wide open to enjoy it.
Okay work. I'm seriously considering going school only tomorrow and staying home for the rest of the week. It sounds good, plus I get to see Wei on Tuesday! Haha.(: Alrights, I really need to focus. Bye all.
