Love the water.
I remember watching Daredevil a few year back and somehow this random point stuck in my brain. Since Daredevil can only "see" with sound waves bouncing off stuff (something like that la), the only way he can stop "seeing" and go to sleep would be to shut out the noise. So he goes to sleep in this coffin like thingy filled with water. Minus the commonsense things that people keep harping about like "wont his skin wrinkle?" and "it will soo cold!!", I find it extremely cool. I guess it is the only place where noises and sounds are muted and the only one you hear is yourself.
I remember there was once during term time when I feel so darn stressed and tired with everything and I told someone I just felt like diving into the deep sea and staying there (strangely enough, the sea kind of scares me. gross unknown creatures lurking). Being in the water just gives you this sense of security. Like no one could touch you and no one would care. When I used to go to Tampines swimming pool a loooonnngg time ago, I used to love hiding in the water and look at all the stuff going on under the surface. haha. sounds pervertic I know. But it is cool to look and not hear. to see and not listen. and everytime I came up to the surface, it was just so noisy, kids screaming and what not.
Being in the pool, we are restricted and liberated at the same time. Try to run and our limbs feel like lead. Try to swim and we glide through the waters. gravity doesnt apply as much and doesnt that feel great!! i told hanxi i wish the everywhere was just water and we could just swim around.
no wonder my friend said I should go be a fish.
I wish I could.
thanks hx for the pool!! you cham liao!! I am going to hound you for the pool from now on!!
fetched my ah gong around to the hospital and parkway and home. taking care of an old person is like taking care of a little kid. I feel somehow protective. It felt nice making someone else feel good, just by doing so little.
on a completely different note. totally not about my ah gong.
Sometimes I wonder. If someone took great care of you when you were younger and things changed, and that person was longer the person you knew. in fact, the person is now despicable. what would you do? do you owe that person anything? do the current ways erase the things in the past?
If you're not confused, you're not paying attention.
