Happy Birthday Singapore

I can't wait for 9th August! Frankly, it's the public holiday that I'm looking forward to. Life is a gruelling never-ending work-day for me so it seems. 5-days a week are spent meeting the requests of a now much-hated client. The very mention of her name sends shivers up my spine. The weekdays, supposedly rest days, is no rest for me, as I spent the bulk of the weekends teaching. And sometimes, preparing for the upcoming work-week ahead.

So one whole full day of rest is a luxury for me. No having to wake up early. I can wake up as late as I want to, have a leisurely breakfast, and just spend the whole day chilling out. No having to rush anywhere, and having to cudgel my brains in trying to remember math formulae, or dealing with unruly kids who play football while I'm teaching English comprehension. I can give my brain a break, and just spend the whole day not thinking. How nice. No venturing out, as we all know how crowded and congested Singapore is.

I hope they have nice cartoons on TVs on that day.
