so i met the ex. finally. since i sent him off at the airport in aug 2001. since i moved to ny in nov 2004. since he graduated and moved to work in ny, we have not chanced upon each other. as said so by a friend, it was kinda ironic that i saw him on spore day.

i knew that was going to happen. it was spore day after all. and i am hanging out with all the archi people who all know him but no one has ever mentioned him in front of me- cos they are scared of a wwiii?!

not sure how he caught my eyes or i caught his eyes in the sea of people. i smiled; he smiled. i continued walking. i smiled to his gf standing next to him but she dint return the smile. not that she was cold on a hot day but she probably thought i was an over-friendly stranger.

glad that there was a distance between us. if not, it wld have seemed impolite not to stop to say hi. glad that i was balancing two bowls of rice dumplings on my two hands. glad that i was wearing my shades.

replayed the scene over and over again, for countless times. it is an involuntary behavior.
