what a tuesday morning...
just got back to the office after getting my HK ID done... have to go back to collect it 2 weeks later... i'm quite relieved now that i've more or less settled this... at least i can now enter & exit hong kong with greater ease & efficiency, apply for local credit cards, and a post-paid mobile phone line...
i was rushing to get to the immigration department this morning, and had to wait for more than 5 minutes for a cab... this process usually takes less than a minute. i had an appointment to apply for my HK ID, and i didn't want to be late. so imagine my frustration when fellas keep popping out of nowhere to intercept the cabs coming my way. there was this middle-aged aunty who walked further up the street, about 10-20m from me, to try to get a cab before me. but too bad, when a cab came by, so did a bus, and the bus stopped at exactly where she stood (not very smart of her to flag for a cab at a bus stop!), and so the cab stopped in front of me instead. i feel a tad bad for her, but nonetheless hopped into the cab. like i said, i don't want to be late for my appointment!
there was a darn jam on the way to the immigration department, and en route, i saw this huge billboard (don't remember what it was advertising for-- a karaoke perhaps?), and the model had eyes that remind me so much of him... i had to mentally shut off his image...
and then 2 minutes later, i came across another billboard-- this time smaller, and is advertising for a construction company of sorts. it had a huge logo that read: KADEN. hmm... well, i've never come across anyone who's named kaden (other than him, and that's because it's the english name i picked out for him), nor seen it anywhere else... but there it is-- in red and bold.
there was a twinge of sadness, and as i listened to my favourite songs list on my ipod, memories danced in my head... again, i had to mentally shut off the images... it is not good to dwell...
he's online now... part of me wants to say hi and find out how he's doing... the other part is afraid... perhaps it's better not to know...
