Birthday!

 

Nothing noteworthy except for a normal meal at mid valley 

Most of this year has been about dealing with the uneasiness around the situation corona virus has created.  When the whole world was hit hard and all countries had yet to bend or flatten the infection curve, it felt like the apocalypse was a real possibility, which makes one ponder about abstract things like meaning of life.

After months of lockdown, it has been proven that our primitive approaches of social isolation, wearing masks, washing hands indeed work to restore some normalcy to the world .  They won’t eliminate the problem altogether but they are our best shot and we need everything that we have got.

Yet even being my most optimistic self I cannot foresee and do not believe the world will ever go back to pre corona days. 

I will sorely miss social gatherings, going to cinemas, gathering with large crowds.  At the same time I draw console from and take solace with the fact that I did my fair share of mingling and taking part in social activities when I had the chance.  I look back at past memories with as much fondness as sadness.  Walking past a cinema and knowing that I will probably never feel comfortable again in watching a movie on a big screen brings about a pang of sadness that makes me feel like weeping inside, yet it is with resolve and maturity that is required of my age that I resign to this fact of life and I will adjust, I must adjust.

Meals galore






Social contact was excessive in this current climate.  That was a bit naughty.

I gave in to my sudden inexplicable nostalgia for Karateka and purchased the game
I now have my childhood memories in my pocket. Bliss!

Periodontist

The periodontist at Amcorp Mall praised me highly for the good work of maintaining oral hygiene.

I rely on old school flossing and that seems to work well
