CNY Day 3: Boss' place



Colin is an affectionate boy, he will hug you by the neck to snuggle. 
It feels so good, this loving boy. 




the plush toy looks that their real dog- Rocky. 





 independence
children, when they make new friends, they kind of ignore me. 
i call out to them, they just run away with their friends to play. 
they run away from me like i'm a nag. 
very soon they will be even more independent than current.  
left with this old man to entertain me

 night time, did some random worksheets. telling her about cavemen and their writings.

i made up some stories about the origins of some words, just to help her remember. 

for instance - Postman- 邮差. I said that in the olden days, the postman has to walk for long distances across fields 田, to bring news to families (news depicted with an ear on the right side of the character). she commented that it must have been a tough job for the postman to have to walk such distances since there were no motorcycles or bicycles before. i said, well, the postman are paid, they receive a salary. she says even then it would still be tiring. i said, well, there were no phones, no internet, no emails, so someone has to bring the posts, plus, everyone is free to choose the kind of work they want to do, if the circumstances were such that they had to do laborious work, it must have been a state of being fortunate to have a job (almost like how everyone's saying these days, given that we would count ourselves lucky to still have work).

CNY 2017's 拜年 trend--

"Is there wifi here? what's the password?"
"Got job, employed, count yourself lucky"

Day 2 - CNY

Day 2- to the office & 大姨's place, my sis' place, my mom's place. lastly to Aunt Elsie's.

Pronoia

That day, I read about some scientists feeding Graphene to silkworms.
The silkworms won't die, they produced a never-before type of silk that could conduct electricity.
I thought that was a bit too far fetched for us now but look what I read today on Straits Times!
Electronic fabric! Even with bluetooth capabilities! And we're talking about in Singapore!

Yeah Yeah Hurray!

Monday's Straits Times 23rd January 2017- REC TwinPeak Solar Panel that converts more energy even when partially shaded.

I feel like I'm a Green Tech Lobbyist more than anything now.

Also, I have realised that I have Pronoia-- the psychological condition leading one to believe that the works of the world is conspiring for one's success.

Thank you!

The rays of light just happen to be there. no special effects, no filters. I've only adjusted contrast.
