The time is 6:55 am and the PSI is 113 (lower end of unhealthy range). There was a light rainfall around 3 am and it helped to clear some of the haze. Hopefully, the air will be healthier during the day. We have over the last few weeks living under hazy and unhealthy condition. We hope and pray somehow this yearly affair will be over once and for all.
I woke up at about 5 am and it isn't unusual of me waking up so early. There were days when I wake up at 4 am. I usually go to bed around 12 midnight. I don't sleep very much. This habit may be due to my 35 years of flying as a flight attendant. I have been around the world many times flying into various time zones. One day I would be in Singapore and 14 hours later I would probably be landing in Heathrow airport which is 8 hours behind Singapore. This is just one of the examples. We,crew do this cycles hundred of times in our flying career. Therefore, it's not unusual to hear that flying crew suffers from sleep disorder,if you may call it.
Well, it's a good thing I left flying after all those years. I've retired since 2003. I lead quite a healthy life despite my years of being a cabin crew. In 2 months time, I will turn 70.
Those photos (3 of them) were taken around 11:15 am when the PSI has improved to 68 which is in the moderate range (sigh of relief). By right it should be like the bottom photo (taken at 7 am at the famous Newton hawker center) which was taken before the dreadful haze invaded Singapore.
My apology for not showing the 2 soft cooked eggs because after eating them then I realised I should have taken a shot of them. Nevertheless, the cup of coffee,2 eggs and the toasted brown bread with peanut butter spread cost $5.10c. The extra mochi-peanut butter bun was from the shop next door (Bread Talk) which is part of ToastBox chain.
For dinner, we had the steamed black bean salmon head, grated onion and okra, fried tofu, miso soup and rice. The dinner was cooked by my wife and the above was my portion which I think it was a little too heavy.
