hazy days are here again
--

i don't know if my office being located on a hill in the heart of orchard adds means that we get to experience first-hand fresh haze but today, when i stepped out from my uber comfortable haven of an office at around 8.30pm, the smell of smoke overwhelmed me.

then i looked up and saw that all the streetlamps were basked in an eerie orange halo, no doubt caused by the thick smog.

then while waiting for the bus home at the interchange, the haze hung even heavier in the heartlands. was quite a depressing sight actually to see the familiar HDB buildings clouded behind an unfamiliar veil. maybe we should attribute to the unusually heavy haze tonight to the mooncake festival as all the kids will be burning something other than their paper lanterns ??

today was my third day at the new workplace and everything has been smooth sailing so far. i'm halfway into my first feature article and man, a two page article may look like peanuts but the research put into it is no joke.

tomorrow i am going for a brazzzie wax. the garden definitely needs some tending, though there will be no one admiring the garden for a long time but no garden owners likes to see their garden unkempt and overgrown, no ? =D

its friday and barely midnight but i'm at home and in need of a good sleep. no partying for me till next week !! ( but i'm open to drinking sessions :p )
