I still think there's something sexy about Alan Cumming. You think? Sabby vehemently disagrees.
I had another adventure yesterday. I wrote a list of things to do, and it included getting some videos at Esplanade library, buying a slate and stylus and buying soil and some plant seeds.
Borrowed mostly art films from library, including old favourites like "The Elephant Man" and "It happened one night", and of course "The Willow Tree" and "The Color of Paradise". Old films have lousy endings but they're still great to watch.
After that, I walked over to Bugis to take 851 to Marymount. It was quite convenient as both SAVH (S'pore Association for the Visually Handicapped) and the florists were at Marymount.
I was actually a little bit scared about visiting SAVH, afraid of what I might see or who I might meet. I don't even know why I felt that way, but I couldn't help feeling it.
However, it wasn't scary or awkward at all, even when I saw a line of blind people coming out of the school for the blind. They walked cautiously, poking around with their canes. It's awesome, really, how they use their canes to see. I watched carefully, each person used their cane differently.
It was comforting, even, knowing that they couldn't see me. I've always been a little bit self-conscious about my looks, and it was almost a relief being there. It's such a wonder to gaze into darkness every day and feel the world through your fingertips. I might consider doing volunteer work there sometime.
Anyway, I bought my slate and stylus set. It's quite a pretty little thing, embossed and everything. They didn't have any cheap plastic ones so I went with the metal one, at $21, which isn't too bad a price.
My brother has finally fixed "Sims 3" for me, so I spent the first half of the day playing it, then watched "The Color of Paradise". At 5.30pm, I heard thunder and saw a looming patch of grey sky. I've been wanting to play in a heavy downpour, so I hurridly changed into my workout clothes and went for a jog.
After jogging, I sat on the pavement at the open carpark and waited for the rain. I waited 1 and a half hours, but the rain did not come. I did, however, get to watch a beautiful sunset and do some thinking. Also, Rabbit was there with me while I waited.
He was in the sky.
