Sleepless Night

School holidays in Tokyo are coming to the final month, that's where I am getting quite a lot of visitors to Singapore.

Lee Kian, arguably the best friend I made in Tokyo, decided to take a flight to Singapore and take a bus back to KL. I still can't believe that a flight from Narita to Singapore costs just over 20k yen, which translates to just under 300 bucks... she saves S$300 by just taking a flight to Singapore and an express bus to KL cos a flight from Narita to Sepang is like S$600...

From economics point of view, that can only mean price distortion. Consumer welfare is not optimised. (sorry for this technical distraction)

with my precious duty free alcohol, she stayed over at my place, and we spent the whole night talking, discussing life, her life in Tokyo, my life in Singapore, and before we knew it, it's 630am in the morning, and she was on her way to Beach road to catch a bus.

It's been a year since we saw each other, but it seems just like yesterday.... the 6 hours used to catch up for this year just didn't seem enough...
