Back to SG: Momentum picking up

Back to Singapore.
Been lazing around.. have barely had time to sleep .. at first I was suffering from major jetlag.
The Singapore weather is incredibly hot these days.

I could not sleep well on Sunday.
My sleeping hours have been as follows:

Sunday & monday: 3:00 a.m sleep - 7:00 a.m. to go office
Tuesday: 10 p.m. sleep I was a bit KO since under the new VPnot allowed to doze off in office. hehe
Wednesday: 2:00 a.m sleep to 7:30 a.m
Thursday: 4:30 a.m sleep to 7:00 a.m then go office
Friday: Knockoff at 9:00 p.m at auntie's place.
Saturday: sLeep at 3:00 a.m

Gonna do something urgent about that sleeping disorder.
Today is nothng much: did some exercise.. chat with friend, need to study for exam soon.
Need to grab myself a new set of friends.. things have changed a bit since I came back.

Or it's the fact about turning 25 that metamorphosed my perspective. hehe
YOU TELL ME>>

Tip: ever listened the japanese song by Ayumi Hamasaki "Momentum"..
I have a bias towards japanese, arabic, french music.

Un peu plus pres des etoiles LYRICS. Nearer to the stars(Mauritius)

Here's my favourite song. maybe some mauritian friends will remember:
Ils ont quitté leurs terresLeurs champs de fleursEt leurs livres sacrésTraversés les rizièresJusqu'au grand fleuve saléSans amour, sans un criIls ont fermé leurs visages de mielLes yeux mouillés de pluieLes mains tendues vers le ciel
Un peu plus près des étoilesAu jardin de lumière et d'argentPour oublier les rivages brûlantsUn peu plus près des étoilesA l'abri des colères du ventA peine un peu plus libres qu'avant
Au pied des murs de pierresIls ont brûlé leurs dragons de papierRefermés leurs paupièresSur les chenilles d'acierEux qui croyaient vieillirEn regardant grandir leurs enfantsA l'ombre du sourireDes Bouddhas de marbre blanc
Un peu plus près des étoilesAu jardin de lumière et d'argentPour oublier les rivages brûlantsUn peu plus près des étoilesA l'abri des colères du ventA peine un peu plus libres qu'avant
Ils parlent à demi-motsA mi-chemin entre la vie et la mortEt dans leurs yeux mi-closDu soleil, du soleil brille encoreUne île de lumièreUn cerf volant s'est posé sur la merUn vent de libertéTrop loin, trop loin pour les emporter
Un peu plus près des étoilesAu jardin de lumière et d'argentPour oublier les rivages brûlantsUn peu plus près des étoilesA l'abri des colères du ventA peine un peu plus libres qu'avant
Un peu plus près des étoilesAu jardin de lumière et d'argentPour oublier les rivages brûlantsUn peu plus près des étoilesA l'abri des colères du ventA peine un peu plus libres qu'avant

Oh sunny days.. Globally warmingly sunny days

Today is a very sunny day.. Gonna go QB.. nah..this is not the QB house where people cut hair in Singapore.. but Quatre-Bornes. Going to do some sight-seeing or window-licking. (leche-vitrine)
Just had a call from Health Sanitary Services asking me to do Malaria blood test. That shall be tomorrow for me. Better check if I still have enough blood.. Otherwise have to do some biting tonight. I lost 3 kg. Not eating enough veggie here.. not good.
Better prepare to get going.. Life is still routine. Go toilet at exactly same time everyday. Been eating a lot of yoghurt. Toilet break time.
Always at 2:00 p.m singapore time. That what everyday in SG i do after lunch.. go toilet, wash face, and brush teeth.

What's my plan?

What's my plan?
I have no plan.. But I miss my colleagues in Madagascar. 8 of them in all. Need to write
them super long emails to them.
Just a coincidence.. my aunt and uncle are taking the same flight on next saturday so we'll
have company.
Yesterday did not do much. Walked with my Mauritian friend along the streets of Rose-Hill,
met another old time schoolfriend for a while. Walked and walked until I was sure I was
slimmer by 1/2 kg. I have not been doing exercise lately. So going to catch up a bit.
Today gonna spend time at home a little bit. Then go climb mountain.
Godma, remember I bought 2 bossini t-shirts and a jeans haha to get a bossini VIP card and
also because people tend to say I wear old and simple clothes. Well, in the end I never
wore them in Madagascar. So I gave the nice graduation looking T-shirt to bro-in-law and
the otehr one gonna give to someone I know. After all my t-shirts in singapore are only
around 4 years old. But slowly maybe I will phase some out. The white ones should be
yellow-coloured already. I somehow knew I was not going to wear them. They look too new for
me.
My dad wears tommyboy perfume to go out. Haha.. Was supposed to me mine but I am just too
simple. So far my only big expenditure is to invite friends for breakfast, lunch & dinner.

- Going to one of my company subsidiaries in Mauritius to pay them a visit. The trick is to always know your opponent. I'm going to see how they work for Mauritian TradeNet.

In Mauritius

In Mauritius ..
What can I say.. Trying to maximise the time I have here.I took the plane with 0 cash in my wallet.. that was the target.
At the Mauritius immigration I had a good laugh with the immigration agent. .. I stated my birthday as dd mm 2007. haha.. He told me .. you coming out of mommy in 8 days
time. I am still "dans les couilles de mon pere" as stated by H. But it's definitely better
than not remembering my home phone number of last time.
Life in Mauritius is a "sweet fantasy" .. I do miss the Madagascar cows.. French languge is
always better.. You say milk a baby.. and also milk a cow. So that made me say " allaiter
une vache" .. i.e. breastfeed a cow..haha.. I love old buildings.
That's why my room in Singapore . the walls are greyish white. When people ask me to paint
my room before moving in.. I simply say no. I like the old 40 year old non-painted room
feel.
Let me enjoy my sweet fantasy!Nah.. have tons of crap to catch up with.. make costume.. change credit card.. etc etc
etc.. read french books. Yesterday I did a lot of thngs yesterday. I did a haircut. .. took measures for a new
costume.. The current one has become small. .. well it's a 6.5 years old costume.Life in Mauritius is expensive these days. Bought a book by author Lee Child called Echo
Burning.
What's left to do .. do blood tests, then also.. go visit the new republic of Thieves - my
homecountry. I'm waiting for labour to become cheap enough in Mauritius to come in MNS the
mauritian subsidiary and trust me I will put some rules to those lazy mauritians. Basicly
it will be working hours from 8:00 a.m to 6:00 p.m. Want to earn some good money? Well..
produce results first. the cost in India is rising too much. Manpower is the most expensive
thing ever produced.. Basicly I simply need their brain to be connected.
No wonder the tart lady was so pissed off when I kept pushing her to provide package deals
for her tarts. I can be pushy when dealing with people. Defend my company in some ways.
I went church yesterday big church called "L'eglise Cathedrale". Zzzeinnn.... the very
noisy church as they are doing the renovations. My jean became authentic jeans.. the wook
powder made patterns on the jeans. Stayed there around 15 min. Pay a small visit to
"Emmanuel" according to the old testament or to the Malagasy "Jessoa Kristy"
Gonna go out a little bit today. Ohh.. btw Life in singapore. I have breakfast to do lists, before sleep to do list in sg. . sometimes the brain can be
so f*cked up that all I do is tick to do lists. When I was in the plane.. I can imagine a
family with 3 kids. "Cabin crew please check the doors" before going to sleep. If you do
not have checklists with kids.. who knows.. it's like you pouring boiling water on them.
esp in sg where everything is so rushed. So maximise time.

Going to Mauritius.. Leaving Madagascar

Leaving Madagascar today.. sad .. :(

But going Mauritius today too.. happy :)
...
It's a lot of mixed feelings.. S.godmother is waiting for me on 20th May. S for super and S for Singaporean. There will be a lot of mixed feelings too..

I'm going to check if my flight timings has changed.. But yesterday we all came up with the most sadist jokes ever.. ..

H. says that his son/daughter is still in the testicles of his father waiting to come out.. I will wait and see.. His gf and he are together for 12 years.

Somehow I'm always lucky..
20000 Ariary appeared in the small hotel room safe when I was totally out of cash.. I should have forgotten then..

7 WEEKS IN MADAGASCAR WAS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDD
I can't wait to try it again! And go police station again due to no papers on me.
