(不)一样的夜晚

Tonight is the same as always...

And yet, different.

Its quieter tonight, it seems the nightly hubbub of circle line construction opposite the road has yet to begin.

My neighbour's dog went into a fit and barked non-stop for a good 10 minutes, peircing the night and causing Kaypoh me to turn off the lights in the room, climb up onto my cupboard and sit silently in the dark staring into the darkness of their garden.

And then hunger pangs struck, which resulted in the pulling out of whatever was left behind in my fridge, making myself a Beef aglio olio with left behind beef steak and spaghetti, one egg, a bunch of freshly chopped garlic and one red chilli.

I used my fingers to clear the chilli of its chilli seeds and then accidentally scratch my right eye and my left nostril causing the affected area to HUM in chilliness as though a nuclear reaction just took place, slowly but painfully, its heat radiated, covering a wider circumference with every second. (after publishing this article, I went to the toilet to take my contacts out. AHHHhhhhh~!!!! @#$#$!#!@#@#!@# MY EYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! )

And then took my first bite only to realise I forgot the parsely and salt, and I overcooked the garlic.

And then I played "Best I ever had" on the guitar, trying to practice what Dayvid taught me but kept missing the base note for the G key.

Listened to Eason's Cd on my new stereo which has had me falling asleep and waking up to music for the past two days.

This morning, I woke up to Jim belting out ... "我愿意拭目以待去等待每份色彩。。。"

And then I sat down in front of my com and thought about how amazing tonight has been in a simple and enduring way, and how bland but delicious my spaghetti tasted, how Monday is going to be the beginning of an extremely busy month ahead for me, how the guitar is still a lady hiding behind a veiled curtain to me, how I want to make my spaghetti so ultimate I can open a cafe and cook it for patrons, how this Month is going to be a good month where I have no time to waste money, how I can unveil that curtain and make the guitar a good friend of mine....

How, you may be wondering where in the world I'm going with this post.

Tonight is the same as always...

And yet, SPECIAL.



I let my mind go free...

on a carousel...

of memories...

of sleepyheads...

Bi Bim Babs...

meaningful aimless lookouts...

scaling heights with like-minded friends....

dancing with the kids...

laughing with the kinkies...

zooming in on the moments...

basking in the quirks of life...

travelling...
