We arrived cold and sleepy at mich & babe's apartment at 650am (450am in SG only -_-" ) in the morning. We agreed to meet Mich for lunchie in City before she left for work and we settled in and napped.

In midst of our naP~~, michie called and told us there's a gunman on the loose in the city! and he shot 2 ppl! So scary!
