bought a fridge
Of course, the buying of the fridge is not the highlight. It's how I got there. Meow's friend at shop near Yishun camp sell the same fridge 250SGD cheaper than Best D and so we decided to cycle from our place behind Thomson plaza to place the order.
It was unexpectedly long so when we reached the shop, i was so tired i could only watch TV (they are showing The Myth.. Great show), hee hee. Meow made all the decisions and we ended up with another TV.. typical.
ON the way back, we saw a whole family of monkeys and their cousins. a few baby monkeys are so small they are the size of my palm. Being quite fearless, they sat on the branch so close to me i could touch them if i dared.
Got to play mahjong on last day of 2006 and 1st day of 2007. won 2 SGD for 1st day and lost 7 SGD for second.
Heard this rather disturbing story on the radio:
In a village in China, 1 lady driver drove a bus full of villages through a secluded area. a few men flagged the bus and not aware of anything amiss, she opened the door to let them aboard. Unfortunately, the men were robbers who robbed the passengers on the bus. Upon seeing the pretty lady driver, they dragged her off the bus and gang raped her.
Watching this whole scene, none of the villagers intervened except for a young man who tried to rally some help. Getting none, he decided to attack the robbers alone. He was rather too late as when he leaped off the bus, the robbers were done and threw the lady aside. They turned to the young man and beat him up badly.
Pulling her clothes together, the lady driver got back onto the bus and drove off, leaving the young man bleeding and alone.
Young man, like the listener of this story, is completely baffled.... why did she leave the man who tried to save her behind?

well it is probably because Rape is an extremely traumatic experience so even the one who tries to save you can't get immediate gratitude and concern. The last thing on her mind was the state of the helper. The only thing one her mind was that she was raped.
