Went down to Times at Plaza Singapura to buy Johann S. Lee's novels (Peculiar Chris and To Know Where I'm Coming From), which I'd been meaning to since I saw Asian Boys Vol. 3: Happy Endings last year, but his first novel was only recently republished. Anyway, that wasn't the main reason I was outside. Was supposed to meet Eng Fa to shop for Joo Sheng's birthday present in Takashimaya. Xiao Hui came along too, and we ended up buying a wallet. If I hadn't decided which wallet it would be, we'd probably have arrived at Joo Sheng's place an hour later than we did. Saw friends that I haven't seen in months, and might not see for years even, once I fly to the UK. Oddly enough, I may see some of them again once we're done with university, as quite a handful are also prospective teachers like myself...
