the summer break in singapore was not quite what i had in mind when chia is currently surrounded by the depressing greys of london and van is still in the ulu suburbs of festive italia. i wonder how timtams; lack of company thereof, survive without us, her lovers and aussie timtams when we were away.

my pre semester winter weekend was planned to be a sole, soul vacation. no trump, hardly any calls except for mom's routine questioning on alternate days with lots of reads i.e the devil wears prada and cosmopolitan, endorphins inducing comfort food, retail therapies and daily beauty regimes - complete isolation.

but i can't simply ignore my darling housemates,

the boys became nannies, they cook, clean, wash, chauffeur, carry shopping bags, nag..even act as temporary atm before the bank opens on monday.

following yesterday's creepy mangrove swamp trail walk at 11pm on a chilly starless night to retrieve the crab cages, we cheong-ed for the polo ralph 50% sale at the coast today!

riding in cars with boys, their need for speed and mister uninvited challenge.

we chased rainbows.
