好久没逛红山中心了。几年前,那是上班的必经之路。 现在只是偶尔路过。今天在那附近上课,趁机逛逛。感觉既熟悉又陌生。
图书馆变了(发现书架和e-catalogue换了), 商店变了(麦当劳不见了,贡茶出现了!)。
不变的是昔日的一些影子 - 在巴士转换站,等巴士的阿兵哥(他们应该是时间一到就冲出办公室。哈哈。不象K,常常陪我们OT)和克信的小小小小小小学妹 (他们应该有小我有十六岁吧!哈哈。想当年,与同窗逛BM是一件多么好玩的事阿!), 热闹的熟食中心(不忙时与同事吃漫长午餐的地方。 哈哈)和flagship store NTUC(偶尔陪妈妈来买东西的地方。小时候,那里可媲美orchard road呢!哈哈)。
原来很多东西会变, 但一些感觉和回忆是不会变的。走在红山中心,浮现在脑海的都是美好的画面。 Thank you (you know who you are) for the memories :)

Coffee, tea (gongcha) or me?
Attended a seminar in the afternoon and kind of fell asleep in the first half hour (so rude of me...) but could not helped it. Was it because I did not had any coffee or tea in the morning? Or was it just me being tired (reached home at about 11pm last night and went to sleep after midnight)? yawn yawn... anyway, I had a cup of milk tea (very nice) during the tea break and then tea from gongcha (it's my third cup since saturday...hmmm...) on my way home....hope I can still sleep tonight :P
Talking about sleep - I attended a talk last week about the sleep advantage. Did you know that eating more tofu, nuts, capsicum, corn can help your body produce a hormone that can help you sleep better? And exposure to natural light (as compared to artificial light) can produce more of that hormone? That probably explain why we feel tired and go to sleep early after a day outdoor or at the beach...
Sweet dreams to all :)

Breakfast at Tiffany's
Moon River came to mind when I pressed about Piazza Navona in Rome a few minutes back.
Moon River came to mind when I saw the video of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast in Tiffany's a few months back.
Moon River came to mind when I heard the street basker at Piazza Navona more than a few months back.
Moon River, a song I heard many years ago about 15 years ago, a song that brings back sweet memories of the days gone by...
Here's Moon River - music by Henry Mancini, lyrics by Johnny Mercer
Moon River, wider than a mile,
I'm crossing you in style some day.
Oh, dream maker, you heart breaker,
wherever you're going I'm going your way.
Two drifters off to see the world.
There's such a lot of world to see.
We're after the same rainbow's end--
waiting 'round the bend,
my huckleberry friend,
Moon River and me.
Moon River - Audrey Hepburn
