Not bad - after 5 months, this is my second post!
Yeah I know what you're all thinking (all of maybe 1 or 2 of the people who have visited this blog), where have the posts been? Well, things have really been insane here in Singapore since I arrived with a ton of changes happening both at work and elsewhere. I've flown so much this year that I'm on pace to make 1k status by October so I'm looking forward to finally exploring Singapore on my days off. That being said, it's only a month until I rotate back to nights so I may not get as much time as I would like before becoming a night owl again.
I'll try to provide updates and hints at what's been happening in future blogs, but for the time being I'll just update the blog way I originally intended: daily ramblings.
So, without further ado, here goes.
After spending the majority of the past few weeks either sleeping for less than 5 hours or crammed into an airplane seat, I decided to knock myself out last night and slept a whopping 15 hours which certainly helped regain some lost energy. I was at work yesterday for meetings which meant that I would only have 1 of my 2 days off to rest so I decided to make the most of it and I finally did the laundry and cleaned the apartment as it was starting to look like a nightmare.
To get the day going, I went to a local favorite of mine for some Bak Kut Teh at 24 hour Bak Kut Teh. For those who don't know, Bak Kut Teh is essentially pork rib soup, but it's incredibly comforting with a small bowl of rice - add some peppers and you're set.
Both the cleaning and laundry went really well as I was thoroughly distracted by watching Superman I and II, both of which I hadn't watched from start to finish before. I decided to finish the night off by watching Superman 3 instead of Superman Returns, but only after a quick visit to Suki Sushi in Balestier plaza. I always seem to spend a small fortune (slight exaggeration) whenever I go there and the food hasn't been as good as when I first visited the restaurant at the beginning of July. I've been meaning to do a Sushi/Movie night one of these days but I haven't had the motivation to do so. Anyways, here are some pics from dinner:
That's it for tonight - hopefully I'll be off to bed early so I can get a bit of rest before waking up tomorrow at 5:30 for work (5:00 if I decide to do a small workout but we all know how diligent I am with working out....)
