It’s some kind of wonderful to wake up cosy in bed, neither freezing nor sweating but with the sun in your face and just the right kind of wind. you awake smiling and eyes are twinkling as your heart tells you today is going to be a good day.
New Radicals play your happy tunes and a stroll to the car is greeted with the warmth of glorious sunshine. Perfect weather, newly burnt CD ; recipes for a leisurely Monday drive.
Hop out of the car, fiddle with the locks, be greeted by the monster dogs and be swept into a lover’s arms; bliss is in the form of many simple things. Toploader’s dancing in the moonlight lift’s the spirits up as i type in this happy whirlwind of pseudo high.
Dim sum cravings and off we go. Car park right in front, no hassle, just in time. Dumplings, durian pastry, yam cakes and that perfect cup of tea. end it all with some mango pudding and a couple walks hand in hand into an empty mall 200 metres away. Playful nudges and the tell tale flush of red on each others lips, people stare envious as they walk back into their office suites.
Spot a sign and run towards it, books of all sizes pile. Fresh and crisp, new books; hardcovers and paperbacks at 30% their original price. Sweep a finger across the glossy covers, take a deep breath as the smell of those ink covered paper knocks you senseless.
5 paperbacks and a hardcover for 80 bucks.
this is happiness on a monday of the year’s first and last December.
