Welcome to the JungleI did it! Tonight, I walked back home from work - it took me 57 minutes.
I started in the city, trusty ipod in hand, to the tunes of Guns n Roses Greatest Hits. Here's a journey in pictures, and the songs that were playing as I made my epic journey home.
Sweet Child O' Mine and Patience: I walk through the quaint shophouses of Craig Road and Neil Road.
Paradise City takes me to the start of Kg Bahru. Pick up my pace from here.
Knockin on Heaven's Door: I glimpse a gorgeous sunset through the trees.
Civil War and You Could Be Mine: Jln Bukit Merah is l-o-n-g... but at last I see Lower Delta Road.
Don't Cry: I feel the evening breeze on my face as the cars rush madly below me.
November Rain: Henderson Road, finally. The air is cool and moist. It's a quiet night, hardly any traffic around.
Live and Let Die: Home! At last! To our fantastic new speakers and amp (bought just last night by D, as a much-deserved treat after paying off his whopper of a student loan. Congratulations D!!)
American Idol was good tonight. I loved Blake's rendition of When I get you alone. Such a cool song. Anyway, feel really good after my long walk - think I'm going to do this regularly. Feeling all sleepy now, and it's only 915pm!!
Till later, D has just put on Fellowship of the Ring and it sounds so darned good on our speakers. Yay to the comforts of home :)
