island tales #29

finally... after missing church for the last two weeks, i managed to drag myself out from bed early enough to make it to church. and amazingly it's my earliest arrival yet, though it's still a good five minutes after the thing started... the place is a catholic cathedral, so everything is pretty much identical to church back home. except of course, the priest is a different guy.

ah, and in a flash of inspiration (and also because i was only half awake at the time), i snapped some pics of the place this morning at seven am. yea dat's right, seven am!!!! insanely early for a sunday, but thanks to waking up at 6 smth everyday, my body insists on opening my eyes (despite vehement protests from the bloodshot eyeballs) and getting out of (the warm, comfortable) bed every freaking morning at six am. even when i have nothing to do. gah...

so here are the pics:

this is my computer, and it has been left on for more than 24 hours now. currently plugged into the modem and shuffling several million bits of data into its gut. and this also happens to be where i spend almost all of my waking hours at home.

and this is a photo of the street in the early morning. i kinda like the reddish hue caused by the street light, mixed with the barely blue sky. and the reason everything else seems dark is... because nobody else is awake yet.

it seems like a lovely sunday so far. there is a pcfair here in penang, might visit again later to see if there's anything worth buying. hm.
