I was so excited to go for ballet class but lo and behold traffic had to await me. The bus journey from Dhoby Ghaut station to Bukit Timah shopping centre usually takes about 45mins but today it took 2 HOURS!!! Just the bus journey alone took that long, if I include walking and waiting time, that would have amounted to 2 and a half hours. AHHHH!!!! I have never taken so long to travel around Singapore all my life. This was simply ridiculous. I left school at 5.15pm and reached bukit timah shopping centre at 7.45pm so I couldn't go for class cos by the time I changed, tied my hair and entered the studio, I would only be left with 15mins of class!!! No dance teacher would ever let a student in after 5 mins what more an hour. Sighs..anywhoos I still had to stay in the 171 which would take me back to Yishun. I can't believe this means it would have taken me 3 and a half hours instead of an hour to go from Dhoby Ghaut to Yishun. To add to all the drama, my phone died on me so I had no way of contacting the dance station, mommy, prabs, jaz or mel!!!! I felt so naked but thankfully I had my laptop with me and I decided to start blogging. I was browsing through old photos and videos and I found a poem which a friend wrote to me a long time ago and this is how it goes...
There is a girl whose name is nicoleThe sight of her makes me warm like a freshly baked swiss rollShe dances like a princesswhich sometimes makes other girls depressShe always has this smile that makes her look like miss smileybut trulythat makes her lovelyI think i'm a complete foolbecause i look like one of those poor dogs that always droolShe makes u go ooh la labut hey i'm just a fellaand it is normal for me to go bananasShe lively and bright like a sun flowerand makes all your darkness run for coverIf there were a way i would make her minetill the end of timeFor God had a reason for her to be bornso that i will get to know a beautiful person before i was goneAnd i thank the Lord all the waywithout knowing her i would have lost my way.Mhmmmms. That definitely brought a smile to my face. Well thanks for that my dearest friend and i hope you've found your bright shining star :)
Oh gosh! It's 9.30pm now and I'm finally home, in the comfort of my own bed..
