oh yah..i missed tis out...while at the smelly market place this morning, i was sitting near a railing when this 2 ah mahs sat beside me.their topics were about fishes at first, on how which stalls were fresher then they moved on to their daughter-in-laws and then to food and finally, about vegetables and this auntie that walked past.i'm amazed by how much topics they can come out with under the sun.they chattered non-stop.even when i left, they were still talking so ever loudly in their dialects.i suddenly stop and wonder, will i be like dat when i'm around 60? will i still be filled with so much energy to chatter non-stop?will i even be able to find such a kaki to yak wit me?well...1 thing i know, friendships are said to last forever but in actual fact, they don't.its just some words to comfort, never truthful.*from my point of view, nothing last forever.i doubt true love too..it'll definitely fade with time.


the 2 uncles at the newspaper stand was equally amusing.one was a malay and the other, an indian.one of them was obviously deaf.they sat side by side and spoke so loudly.they were smiling and carrying out their conversations in malay.instantly, i thot of the feelin of peace--racial harmony.different race, yet they are still able to communicate with each other--one, so patient to repeat again and again, the other, trying his best to hear what his partner was saying and trying hard not to lose his cool--he was deaf and obviously, he was irritated.


i guess its about time i start to observe people closely once again.
they are such normal people who lead such ordinary lives yet so interesting to study.
-the market is a good place to start . tho they are bloody smelly-
