a fellow purple shirt came by to visit me at ‘work’. he took one of those (infamous) ‘Give Way’ shuttle buses we could hop on to get from one Games venue to another. 
and so, Games time ends today. a little sad to part with the company i’ve made over the past two weeks. being involved in this reminded me of the times i’d worked in event management just after i’d graduated, a (much younger) youth myself then, how i liked being a cog in the wheel of things, the challenges faced in intense periods, meeting new people… and in an event as large-scale and international as this, the cultural exchanges were, needless to say, most enriching.
oh, and yes, i did learn more about SPORTS too, erm, of course. ha ha. (watching from the sidelines was admittedly more exciting than on tv.)
but the time has come for us to sink back to reality, and move on with the ebb and flow of normal (yawn) everyday (yawnn) routines…. sigh.
au revoir, Jeux Olympiques de Jeune. it was a great run.
thank you, merci, obrigado, gracias, and (my favourite, in russian) – come on, say it with me – “spasibo”!

nothing to do with this post, but didnt know where else to ask, haha.
have u guys ever been to simei at the junction of simei ave 1 and ave 4, there’s this My First Skool banner – picture of 4 kids facing a teacher reading a book? Not sure if they have this banner elsewhere, have only seen it at simei coz I walk past it every morning.
One of the kids totally looks like Aniq! Kusyuk dengar teacher baca storybook! Is that really him? Cute lah!
can you twitpic the banner?? never seen it but would think they’d ask for permission from parents first before using children’s pics.
