singapore 

it's friggin hot here man. super hot. i have sweaty palms. and a sweaty crack. going commando here can be quite slimey. it sure was bad planning only packing 2 pairs of jocks (to be used for emergencies only). i need some more jocks.

anyway, so i've been here for four days. it's gone so fast man. i'm currently staying in an apartment on the 17th floor. with peter. my mate. it's west-facing. i know this because peter told me. and we have braai's in his lounge and watch the sunset. it's weird. not only how east and west are relative, whilst north and south are absolute. but also having braai's in your lounge. it get's quite smokey. and you have to keep hanging your head out the window and waving and smiling so nobody calls the fire department. but that's singapore i guess. weird. and hot.

so no real news. other than that i haven't managed to get a job yet. and the canadian chick has yet to phone. which is surprising. i sure did make a good impression on her at the backpackers lodge on saturday night. jet-lagged and drunk. mumbling on about the ukraine. it was a pleasant evening. we ate dozens of little curried pigeon eggs on the way home. 

today i bought some towels. it is useful to have a towel when you choose to leave home. as you may need to shower sometime. 

i woke up this morning and got myself a beer

the future is uncertain and the end is always near
