It’s nice to be away from home for a change. Really. It’s a great break! Haha. Though I had spent a great deal being so near the shopping areas. LOL I even bought a fish eye jelly lens that doesn’t seem to work. Grr..

No easy access on the net during our stay at the apartment last week. I chose to rest all night long and get acquainted with the TV again too. LOL :D

July 3, 2009

Almost three days and two nights in the city now. She remembers this life. Fast paced. Lighted by the countless vehicles and street lamps at night. Malls and coffee shops just around the corner. The satisfying yet expensice life. LOL. She fumbles for some change and gets a card for the first train. City life is like riding the MRT — fast, busy, full of people, irritating at certain points and just plain uni-directional at the fast tracks. A life one would certainly want more than half the time given the perks of her job.

And then she walks through the elegant mall, transitioning between trains. She again searches for coins while being awed by the other station. Classy. Quiet. Something that only reflects a tinted memory of having been there. Five minutes, says the digital reminder, til the next train arrives. Five minutes, waiting for her chance, her moment, her time. This station represents waiting. Waiting for your train. And if it arrives, you then decides if you’ll take that or wait for the next one. But if you let it pass that would be another five minutes lost just by standing there waiting. Five minutes that you can’t get back and rewind. And so she gets in. It’s different. The LRT2 train is slow. It’s taking it’s time. Maybe even too much time. But, it is relaxed. Just like the way one should live….

TBC…

I don’t know what I was actually thinking off when I wrote this..Hiiihii.. Metaphors and other representations. Hmmm.. Maybe I was in deep thoughts then of what I want to happen next.. To wait or to jump for the next train.
