Lots of pending work, deadlines to meet by six!
I'll work expeditiously , using my special tricks
So I open the laptop with this thought in mind
I'll be done by six and be at bed by nine
At seven, I find myself still watching netflix!

For the Love of Samosas
Prologue Today's post is short fiction in honor of all the hassled parents trying to keep their angsty teens in line. "Bye mum! I'm not coming home for lunch today. I'll be going to Mac's with Kelvin and his buddies before we head to his house to study for a test." With that, Adam Lim careened like the Flash out of his humble HDB abode.
