I opened the bottle, and instantaneously recognised the fragrance.
It seemed like forever since I smelt that oh so familiar smell.
There I was, in the shower, and I looked at that miniature bottle.
It was the last bit of shampoo that was left from the Tresemme 500mls shampoo that I had poured out whilst my stay in Scotland.
And I looked upon the bathtub, the nice looking bathroom and slept on my oh-so-fluffy bed.
And then I realised how old I've become, that time has gone by so fast that I so rarely looked back and reminisce of the times where life was, probably less comfortable in my travels, like during those times where we were cropped up in a small sized room, or sleeping in a room of 13 people and sharing bathrooms between the gents and ladies, eating plain toasted bread for breakfast and being contented with a mere maggi mee, egg and two sausages for dinner.
I was in Carlton Hotel, Singapore, and renowned for being a Five Star Hotel, it's got pretty much the standard stuffs (breakfast was pretty good, but not comparable to breakfast at Mandarin Oriental, the Philippines), but back to the bathroom, what I liked was the little glass container that they had which had cotton buds in it which looked like little marshmellows. =) It looked so cute! And edible too!!!
Took the Singapore Flyer, and once again my thoughts went back to how it was when I went up the London Eye only a year and a half ago. Funny to know that some of the doctors (who are filthy rich people) haven't been up on the London Eye while a girl like me, as normal as any other girl could be took the trip up the infamous Ferris Wheel. But then again, how can I compare, as these people spend most of their time treating people, and making lives differences every single day, while I'm just a simple, old, Me. Easily contented and foolish at times Me. =)
Looking at the view from up there didn't really astound me though as I thought the London Eye had a much better view, overlooking the view of the Thames River, Big Ben, Tower of London, and all the wonders of the city. However, I gotta give credits to how well the whole city is organised, and how the skyscrapers boast high up in the sky, and how the Singaporeans preserved their cultures against the waves of development. Salutes to them for that! =) Changed some Singapore $$ but barely used it coz drinks during party hours were paid my Martin.. **wink wink**

Think my Doctors had a good time too, but what really made me happy was when Dr Altaf gave me a hug to thank me for everything before we departed seperate ways from the airport. Felt like we were buddies already, and that felt sooooo good.
Life is different then than it is now.
But I'm happier, and I have only one person to thank to for all the difference.
Been having weird dreams though, of things I wish to forget, and of some other things I wish I could remember of more clearly when I wake up.
Just yesterday I had a dream of being in an alley of with no end. Felt chills down my spine.
How weird. Must have been too tired.
Flying again soon! Looking forward to two weeks from now!!!!! It's gonna be soooooo much fun!!! Wheee!!!
lotsa love.
