Queuing for laksa at a food joint in Suntec City. Wonder if you have to queue that long for the laksa in the food court downstairs?

Early Monday morning. 12:25 am.

Watching a drama about vampires on Channel 8 that doesn't really make much sense, but is addictive anyway.

I'm experiencing sharp stabbing pains on my neck, which prompted the doctor to give me two days off from work. Which explains the late night television.

Casting about for inspirational material to write, but nothing is forthcoming.

I can only think about the pain. And about the person lying on the bed next to me, sleeping and feverish.

I guess this is what they mean when they say, "in sickness and in health".

This is my little contribution to something that was started by MercerMachine. Thanks to mrbrown for his moving contribution and the link.

I'm the foetus who was conceived accidentally.

I'm the baby girl who was unwanted and nearly given away.

I'm the daughter who you brought to the coffee shop for breakfast before school every morning, who always asked for ice in her hot Milo because it was too hot.

I'm the daughter who misses those breakfasts.

I'm the daughter who was always the last one waiting at the school gate because you were late.

I'm the daughter who learnt how to walk home on her own at the age of eight.

I'm the younger sister who gave up her chicken wing for you.

I'm the younger sister who always killed the cockroaches for you.

I'm the youngest sister whom you brought to the cinema with you when you went on a date.

I'm the youngest sister who considers you more a mother than a sister.

I'm the cousin who grew up loving to read because you gave me your Enid Blyton paperbacks.

I'm the girl who loved to contribute articles to the school publication.

I'm the friend who walked home with you after visits to the community library.

I'm the friend who discussed careers, life and diamond rings with you while belting out ballads at K-Box.

I'm the girl who fell in love with you, but you didn't know.

I'm the girl who fell in love again, but you had no time for her.

I'm the girl who fell in love with your corny humour and earnest disposition.

I'm the girl you fell in love with, over music and ICQ.

I'm the girl to whom you proposed, with a stuffed rabbit and a diamond ring.

I'm the girl who's still restless.

I'm the girl who wants to see the world.

I'm the girl who wants to see the world with you, one country at a time.
