pasar victoria

every now and then, you land yourself a surprise.

side by side in the market, vibrant colours of red, green and yellow grab your attention. the smooth layer of fuji apples tempt you, the cheap bak choys and broccoli remind you to be healthy, the lobster, oh my, tantalizing. the weight on your hands keep increasing. cash outflows persist when the heart is weak. for food. until you realize the fridge might not fit your buys.

selamat datang ke wabak suri rumah. yang termurah tak terhenti-henti beli. yang besar mencubit hati. yang manis lagilah nak makan.

it's so enchanting, really, the little things that make you fly. omgosh cheap grocery shopping gets me high. it's almost as good as watching fairytales!the good ol times, watching in awe and envy as snow white got her kiss of life from her prince..

which brings me to reflect on how the soundtracks to our favourite classics can hold so much meaning..

Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Than somebody bends
Unexpectedly

Just a little change
Small, to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure

As the sun will arise

Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast.
