saw something freaky on our way home from dinner tonight.

Okay, we left Novotel at like 11pm ish and took a cab home (dinner was smashing, with great love and a poolside view that was to die for!) when we alighted from the cab outside our condominium, i instinctively looked at the comdominium opposite ours (Cairnhill Plaza). dunno what made me do it, but i just glanced at the 15th floor of that building. saw that the lights inone of the units was flickering non stop. its like someone was playing with the switch or something. it goes like ON OFF ON OFF ON OFF. so i thought, hrm, must be a faulty bulb and brushed it off.

12.45am
Chilling in the living room with my baby and had some yummy lychees and a glass of Gin. saw the unit with the flickering lights across the street. That's weird, i thought.

why is it weird?

well, if you have a flickering light, you'll just turn it off, right? instead of just leaving it on and flickering. if you've stayed with a flickering light, you know just how irritating it is. brightness, then darkness and the cycle repeats itself relentlessly. and when i managed to get a good look into the unit, when it was bright, i saw that the unit was actually BARREN! no furniture or whatsoever. i asked ken if he found that disturbing. He replied, maybe the landlord came back to check the unit out before leasing it to another tenant. I gave it the benefit of the doubt and continued with the fruits.

1.30am
went for a shower and happened to glance at the unit. THE LIGHTS WERE STILL GOING ON AND OFF.

2.15am
it's been like 2 hours plus and the lights are still playing by itself. by this time ken has tucked himself into bed. i stared at the unit really hard and guessed what i saw! a silhouette! standing right there at the window. then the lights went off and almost immediately went back on again. AND THE SILHOUETTE'S GONE! i totally freaked out, left the living area lights on and went directly to bed. and here i am, typing this down. thank goodness i have ken by my side. his breathing and hum gives me great comfort.

i should seriously tell the security guard about what i saw later in the morning.. should just clear things up.
