And out come all these words
Well I missed the train and the traffic was a state

You should try to accept all the oddities that you encounter today, because when you mix a little bit of weird into your normal routine, it creates a good combination of unpredictability and stability! There is no such thing as 'normal', and people who have lots of idiosyncrasies are going to be incredibly interesting to you -- at least for today. You'll love striking up conversations with people who look, talk and think differently than you do.
There isn't much to be said about that. As usual, they're always wrong. Why? Because I'm no good accepting oddities, I don't "strike up conversations" and I like normal, even if nothing in my life has ever been normal. Horoscopes are crap. I don't even know where these people manage to predict out things for a whole group of people who fall under that one category, it's ridiculous. And I know, tomorrow I will still find myself looking out for my horoscope for that day. There isn't much to be said about that either.
Quotes on the other hand, never fail to describe what exactly is happening:
"So this is when we finally learn the real meaning of change. You do the things you used to be against, you date the people you thought you never would, and you befriend the people you used to hate. You'll learn what it's like to have your heart broken, to lose a friend that truly meant something to you, and to feel as if everything is really falling apart. There will be times that your life seems so absolutely horrible it feels like it's not real. Despite all this, good things will come too. You'll make the most amazing friends that will be there for you even when they probably shouldn't. Your broken heart will heal once you find the most perfect guy you've ever met, and just as nothing else can go wrong, things will only get better. There will be the days you are so happy, and the days that you feel like dying. In the end you'll realize, everything happens for a reason."
On a more lighter note, I went out shopping with Nadie yesterday and it was fun! No pictures though, but I did manage to find a nice enough top, accessories and a book :D For the first time, I saw so many western tourists in Singapore yesterday. And that made me wonder, what are they doing in Singapore? And that too at this time of the year? Its Christmas time and they decide to spend it in a country which does not even look remotely like is actually going to be the 25th December. Don't get me wrong, being a Singaporean, I don't have anything against Singapore, but I just cannot help but notice how boring it really is. And these westerners come from countries that would really look a lot like its Christmas time.
I don't celebrate Christmas, but I do have a soft spot for Christmas in my heart. I feel like its definitely the best time of the year where you're with family and there's feasting and gifts and it probably cannot get any better than that. And in those western countries, it actually snows! Okay, I don't think I'm making a very substantial point here, but I just feel that when they can be in a country which is far more better at celebrating Christmas, why do they come here is just beyond me.
