0720 in a weekday

It's school holiday... and I now have the 'privilege' to step out of the house later... yes, after sunrise, just like many of the office workers...

7.20 am. I alighted the bus at Tampines Interchange, taking the path that I take every morning (during term time). Except, the sky is now brighter. And there's someone there to distribute that morning papers, which are normally left intact, wrapped in plastic. Yes, can see the order queues, where the commuters bother to join to collect a copy of the Chinese papers before they join another queue to collect for the English (Today) papers.

The atmosphere seems lighter, with live music along the sheltered walkway leading to the MRT station. Yes, someone playing the saxophone loud and clear. As we walked nearer to the MRT station, there sat another live musician playing a chinese instruction (like the yue qin). Both elderly men were enjoying what they did. I guess commuters also walked at a livelier pace.

Welcome! It's Monday morning.
