17 socks, 1 dollar, and a scent

i was looking for a pair of socks this morning,
apparently..
that is only slightly easier than solving physics Olympic questions.

there was 17 socks in my drawer,
and none of them are a pair.

i wonder what happen to their partner.
and why don't they disappear together?
the missing socks is the mystery that i have yet to understand in my entire life.

another mystery that is slightly less challenging,
is the one-dollar-kids.
few days ago, we met a kid who seemed to be playing happily on his own,
and then out of sudden, he smiled to us, and then asked for 1 dollar.

he was lucky, i had 1 dollar in my pocket.

today a girl seemed to be playing happily on her own,
and out of sudden, she spoke to me, and then asked for 1 dollar.

she was unlucky, i told her i have given the 1 dollar to her friend.
she was bemused, "which one?" she asked.
"it was a boy, i dunno" i told her.

i wonder if they work under the same 'company'.
their technique was similar, a bit like the MLM folks, if you know what i mean.
and why one dollar btw?

the scent..
until now, neither of us know exactly where this wonderful scent comes from.
and for reasons that only we and probably the bears, would know..
i brought home that scent.. again.. =)

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
