Yep! That perfectly describes the day... All except: 1, 2, 3b, and 4c.

3a) Someone whose temper is even more unpredictable than the weather. I'm inclined to sprout more maligning words but alas, I feel that it's really not me. Hell, putting up the word isn't me already... but I had to express what I feel inside, otherwise, like Vic, I'll just explode.

Anyways, this someone totally took me by surprise, and it totally spoiled my day. Hence, #6.

I couldn't take being cooped up at home anymore, so at 4 or so, I changed & decided to stroll to Ang Mo Kio Interchange... With the weather being so hot, I decided to buy a Hip Hop Jelly ice-cream to cool my walk. But with the weather being so hot, my Hip Hop jelly started to de-freeze and the jelly itself started to liquify. Left with no choice, I had to gobble up the icy jelly & let it slide down my parched throat. Ni-i-ice... haha!

Anyways, I had 3 goals to accomplish at AMK Central.

1. Get a Sketch book or something to paste my photos in as a portfolio.
2. Check out if the old MS Color is still at the big Jubilee S11 there.
3. Buy breakfast cereal.

Didn't accomplish #1 coz I decided I needed to know how many photos & how big first.
Checked out #2 so I can bring Anqi there if she's still on about it tmr.
Lastly, went to NTUC Hypermart to get my Blueberry Morning from Post.

That last task was a bitch... as in #4b. They didn't have anything at all like what Woolies or Coles had. The best-looking ones that vaguely resemble Australian breakfast cereal were from Post, and they were really quite expensive. Was deciding between a maple syrup one, a cranberry one, a honey oat one, and this blueberry one. The scrooge in me won, so I got a 382g Blueberry Morning, which was a crazy $5.01! Also bought a 200g pack of mixed fruit pieces in case Blueberry Morning wasn't as sweet as I'd like it to be.

Anyways, strolling alone within the hypermart made me think. It just didn't feel the same. Huge as it was, variety-wise, NTUC is nothing compared to the smallest Woolies or Coles. Then again, maybe it's just the things I would buy. And at the breakfast cereal section, all the boxes were so puny! The biggest pack I could find didn't exceed 500g! And the most expensive pack I could find was Apple Jacks (which was and will probably always be my favourite (strong competitor being Crunchy Nut Clusters)) at $8.72 or something like that.

Anyways, my thought was that, maybe I didn't need to shop for my daily needs, that's why it feels so different. Or maybe it's the people I go shopping with. Here, I feel so... empty... so... useless.

So alone...

*sigh*

It's taking longer than I thought for Brisbane-sickness to go away. Withdrawal symptoms. Heh. The weather isn't helping. The church atmosphere isn't helping. The missing isn't helping. Though I have enjoyed myself with some old friends here, something's still missing. I'm just glad to be kept somewhat in the loop of things back in Brissy. Found another vacancy & I'm really hoping I'd get accepted.

Was telling both Joannas and someone else the other day that it's really damn hard to obey GOD when HIS plans are against your own plans. Nevertheless, we need to learn to obey HIS will because we humans are short-sighted.

GOD help me... =(

I think u must be quite bored reading about my missing Brisbane and the people there. U can choose not to read u know?

Love me if you dare... 22:55
