有缘

Sometimes it's not what we expect of life, but what life brings us. And meeting ex-classmates is something we should always find enjoyable. We can't help but compare what they are now to what they were then. The younger you knew one another, the stronger the sense of familiarity.

Upon meeting up with good old Sunny over some much-needed iced mocha at Starbucks, who'd have known that I'd get to befriend someone from my godforsaken primary school! It's a rarity to have people from there, don't ask me why. They all seem to have grown up and left the island or something!

And after that, I bumped into secondary school friends at Bedok MRT. First Fabian upon alighting, and then Pei Yen upon exiting the station. Fabian recognized her first. Chancing upon friends without any prior arrangement is just fun.

Useless muse of the day: Why don't people give way to alighting passengers anymore? Why do they block up the exit route and leave themselves a little gap to squeeze through? Are we really in such a rush to get... somewhere? Such that someone else's needs can be pushed aside and trodden upon in order to service our self-centred souls?

Useless fact of the day: From the game design module, I learnt that scissors, paper and stone is one straightforward yet cyclical concept that can be applied to modern game mechanics. It is indeed used to guide many games that are in their infancy stage of development.
