americano, exotica

it's one of those days.

the day in the middle of the week.
where everyone gets a break.

where the workers get two weekends in a week.
and the rest go around wondering why their local pool parlours and orchard roads are suddenly so crowded.

The key to labour day,
i think,
is not merely a day where people get to rest,
but to think about what they are doing.

to reevaluate their .... careers.
to actually sit down, and think,
what am I doing from Monday to Friday,
from 9 to 5?

Do I really want to continue doing what I am doing?


But then again,
labour day may just be a day for pregnant women to give birth.

who would know?
