Letter 415: The Perfect Summer

The Summer of 69 may have been Bryan Adams' best days of his life, but for me, I'll always reflect on the summer of 2008 with a wisp of longing, for even though those warm, balmy summer days had seemed like a lifetime ago, the summer that began exactly today, 365 days earlier, was, for me, the best summer days of my student life:

Happyness on arrival :)


That which got me through 8am rounds (no, it wasn't Oxford!)


Hasty breakfast balls in tau foo fah and soy milk at Mr. Bean's, located in practically every MRT station and at certain hospitals.


Jagung ice-kacang was a $2 treat at the hospital cafeteria when I wasn't scrubbed up in theater.


Daily fluid intake *slurp*


Jap is a must. Always.


My little carton of Hong Kong during those solitary Awfully Chocolate afternoons.


Humble $2.50 chap fan after one-too-many Jap dinners.


Summer thirst-quenchers. Milo Dinosaur, oh, Milo Dinosaur!


$ummer $ales :D


Summer longing.


Summer belonging :)


How will this coming summer fare? I shall tell you in 2 weeks' time *wink*
