"Charley Benetto is a broken man, his life destroyed by alcohol and regret. He loses his job. He leaves his family. He hits rock bottom after discovering he wont be invited to his only daughter's wedding. And he decides to take his own life.
Charley takes a midnight ride to his small hometown: his final journey. But as he staggers into his old house, he makes an astonishing discovery. His mother - who died eight years earlier - is there, and welcomes Charley home as if nothing had ever happened.
What follows is the one seemingly ordinary day so many of us yearn for: a chance to make good with a lost parent, to explain the family secrets and to seek forgiveness."
This is a new book by Mitch Albom, the author of 5 people u meet in heaven and tuesdays with morrie. It's titled "for one more day". judging from the synopsis and the title, it seems like a good book abt someone with regrets and he has one day to make do what he wanted. loved Albom's tuesday with morrie and i hope this will be as good. shall give a review when i am finished with it.
was with 2 friends at orchard and they asked me along to zouk. decided to go since i think the loud music will do me some gd. my friend managed to get free entry for me as her friend happened to have a event pass for the night. this is the first time i clubbed in almost a year and this is certainly the first time i have been to zouk after its major renovation. some new touches here and there but tat spot din change at all. phuture has changed totally. made a lot of new friends and the music was gd after a very slow start. but i still got away from all my friends and found a seat at zouk to rest for a while. cant believe my luck. i actually got touched on the waist by an ah gua (i think so) as she walked past me. yucks. the rest of the night was spent dancing away except for a few "interesting" incidents...haha.
passed by upper serangoon shopping centre. memories came flooding back. just knew abt the trip. happy tat u finally made it for the trip. tmr is gonna be a better day :) .
