Homies
I was sick all of last week, I was coughing like an 80-year-old man so that kinda explains my disappearance, right? Anyway I’m better now and glad to be back with posting!

Lone sun
This is a Chinese and Japanese character that stands for Sun, pronounced as “ri”. I took this outside a Japanese kindergarten. So go outside and get some sun peeps, have a great weekend!
(Also I really can’t help but want to make you want a slow loris too!)

Pictures on a screen scream
Monkeys! Monday, we spotted a family of monkeys (two males, one female and a little one) and followed them as they made their way into Telok Blangah Hill Park. It all happened so fast because these monkeys walk so quickly tho they stop every now and then to sorta, regroup and rest. I’ve had encounters with monkeys when I lived at my old house and the bus stop’s right beside the park so sometimes I’d see monkeys rummaging through the bin for food. But this was major-awesome because the monkeys were aware of us and would turn back to look at us and gave us eye contact – which scared me a little, honestly.
Bravo me, for not focusing on monkeyman
We gave in and stopped once the itch from all the mosquito bites became too much to bear. Also, HortPark‘s pretty cool. I really wanted to walk through Kent Ridge Park but it was getting too dark and creepy. Maybe this weekend.

Rode to the reservoir
Some weeks back, Ben & I rode our bicycles to Pandan Reservoir. Not too far from where we live.
Turns out there wasn’t much to see but it was strangely amusing when the path to walk/cycle on isn’t tarmac but gravel – you can tell from the last picture. (In our little city, every road is paved to perfection!) And the one thing I always catch myself complaining about when I photograph scenery is that there’s always something at the edge of the horizon. Ships, factories, shipyards, some kind of tall lanky tower that isn’t a lighthouse. So any time that I’m in another country, I tend to marvel at the abundant space and the never-ending nothingness!
