trees.

The road to your workplace is just as important as the road home.

I never understood nor felt the impact that it would have on me, until today.

Putting it into perspective, when I started work at the Sands IR, I was utterly dismayed to find that there was no walking path to get to the site office. The only way to get to the site office from Marina Bay MRT was a 500m winding main road, where u had to walk on the road shoulder and pray that no lorry came by and minced you to shreds.

Fucking depressing.

The road is uneven, with different layers of tar added overlapping each other, forcing you to watch your step. So in the morning you will see a whole train of pple walking with their heads down (yourself included).

On Saturday night, they finally closed off the old road and opened a new one. A SLIGHTLY shorter walk this time, but still in the hot sun. But now, it had a pathway. An actual walkway, with handrails, like the kind you see at a housing estate. It even had a concrete drain and, DEAR GAWD, there were TREES. Small trees planted.

As mundane as it sounds, it made the walk to work MUCH EASIER on the mind.

In other words, sold the old k90 to HH. Will stock up on another KPS88 with gut, and use the old one for wet-days, since its strung with synthetics. I think this makes perfect sense. Especially since I have pretty much decided that its the best racquet i've ever laid my hands on.

Surprisingly, i volleyed pretty well on Sunday with the PHT, weird.

I WORKED THE WHOLE SATURDAY AWAY UNTIL GODDAMN BLOODY FUCKING 11PM!!!!!!!! FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fuck the RAIN!!!
