No seats in the MRT, so I stood in front to watch the tunnel, couldn't remember when was the last time I did this. It was weirdly therapeutic.
PapaVoo accompanied Darren to sell off his PMD to the government. There's a queue even.
He spend about $800 on it but was worth only $100. Putting money aside, if I were him, would be sad to part with it. It was his companion for about 3 months. Everybody talks about reckless PMD riders, but nobody talks about inconsiderate pedestrians and those who purposely block your way. He had it all recorded in his video cam, but now that he is in the army, he no time trim and made the videos known to the public.
In Xi An China, they have a lane for PMDs and bicycles. China is ahead of us in many ways.

Saw a temporary booth at UE Sq selling little items at $2 each.
I bought 2 bamboo reusable straws, a brush for it and a travel cutlery, spend $8.
Hubby came to fetch me, we went Macpherson for odd timing dinner around 4pm. We had KL style ban mian and bought prata for Darren. I still prefer SpringLeaf 's.
In the evening, I hugged and kissed my 宝贝 Darren goodbye and let his father drive him to camp. I really wish I can see him everyday, haiz.....
I had been sighing so much recently....

Fried rice for lunch. Managed to find half a tube of prawn paste in the fridge to add on. Left over rice taken from work place.
The chap chye peng stall at the coffee shop must thought I had moved house, so long never go down. Staying at home is the best way to conserve my limited energy.
Managed to clear a couple more items from the luggage before going to work.
Bought only one tiny terracotta army as a souvenir.
Some artwork decor given by the tour guide.
Watching 生门 in Youtube. Only to realize that the hospitals in China were private, not funded or aided by the government. If the patient doesn't have money, there are 2 scenarios:
1) the doctor continue treating the patient, if the patient ran off without paying, the fee will be passed on the the dept and doc.
2) the doctor had to stop treatment, cos he really couldn't afford to risk another bill onto himself.
It's so sad. Docs and nurses had to slog so hard, lack of manpower and lack of resources.
This is a screenshot I taken showing a patient who left ICU and they were transporting her to ordinary ward in another building in f**king raining day, holy crap....
The documentary consists of 13 episodes, worth watching as in you can see many interesting difference. Now I really appreciate the medical facilities and our hospitals very much.

Evening shift at Upper Serangoon. I made time to visit Amber Ember cafe which was just 2mins walk from my work place.
Mocha (I took a big sip before taking this photo) and pepperoni cheese sandwich was $21.
This one and only meal lasted me throughout the day.
