1:45 PM

Yasendra Amarasinghe's mom, Rukmani, just arrived at the Bank. I said hi politely.

The image shows the interior of a car, specifically focusing on the windshield and a sticker affixed to it. The car appears to be red, with a shiny exterior that reflects some surrounding greenery.

The sticker on the windshield is circular and features the text "Managed by CAR MART" prominently displayed in blue and white. Below this text, there is a phone number: "Hotline: 011 144 8888." The sticker is positioned towards the lower right corner of the windshield.

In the background, the reflection of trees and foliage can be seen on the glass, indicating that the car is parked in a green, outdoor environment. The interior of the car is partially visible, showing a light-colored dashboard and some controls, but no specific details about the car's make or model can be discerned.

The overall setting appears to be a casual parking area, possibly residential, given the natural surroundings. There are no people visible in the image, and the focus remains on the car and the sticker. The lighting suggests it is daytime, with some clouds visible in the reflection on the windshield.

No additional objects or brands are identifiable in the image aside from the sticker on the windshield. The description remains strictly factual, with no interpretations or subjective commentary included.

1:45 PM (b)

I told her I spoke to the french. She asked whether I was waiting for a girlfriend. I appreciate how a real operator is always on the job; I really value that. I then explained she's in france. Most of her close friends and Katia are here, though.

They do car mart..

That made me smile.

I have to head off to registrar to see what is happening with them

1:45 PM (c)

She once gave me some quite pleasant Turkish delights.

1:45 PM (d)

She asked whether I wanted to go to france or something, to speak with them

I replied, "No, just about that girl"

But really it was to offer them access to our "████████████████████████████████, but not the "████████████████████, which is reserved for certain designated groups and for people who have been formally selected or appear to have been inducted

1:45 PM (e)

I did actually pick Yasendra for my ████████████████████ at my ███████.

But they don't seem very keen on my right-hand to left-hand shift.

He has said there'd be auto driving cars by that point...

We have the budget for it.

I prefer not to have cars from █████ coming in; that's why.

If you do that, you would have a ████████████████████████████████████.

2:45 PM

2:30 pm

I'm headed out of the registrar. I spoke to their IT team. They experienced technical issues.

They also had issues with the articles. I will redo it soon. They need 4 inches of space at the top for their internal documentation.

They asked for less white space, though I can add more content to fill it. Unfortunately, they've requested the logo be removed because it is red on the cover page.

It seems fine. I can do it again and resubmit.

***

Just, I'm not sure.

I miss Pauline.

2:45 PM (b)

David Sanders was my school principal.

I once ███████████████████████████.

I think to like, show the security guard outside, so I could leave school early.

(I think "once" might be a little bit overly understated.. )

But really, Principal Sanders, thank you for taking an interest in me, the well-known CIS student.

A tragic, transformational figure...

I write my signature as L E.

You used that simple mark because, as the CIS principal, you had many certificates and documents to sign.

2:45 PM (c)

I did not throw an egg at school owner Aryme's car

Nor did I put dye colouring in the swimming pool

2:45 PM (d)

It was truly a sight to behold.

That pool — what a view.

Armyne even told Asita that he enjoyed the breakfast the kids made.

His Benz was parked out front.

2:45 PM (e)

The only time I met Sanders was when I was sent to the principal's office for "too many detentions"

I was waiting with Thevin Gamage, and then he came out to see me

He said, "Congratulations," thinking I had done something good

I shook his hand and thanked him sincerely, before his helpful secretary gently corrected him

Even so, he clearly recognized me then

I smiled

I haven't changed

And I don't expect to

I still feel confident about myself

I've long felt a bit disconnected from school

My attendance was low — less than 20 percent, maybe as little as 10%

I have to go back to work soon

The image shows a page from a notebook or ledger, primarily filled with handwritten text in blue ink. The page is lined with red margins, and the text appears to be organized in a tabular format, possibly indicating a record of times or measurements.

1. **Readable Text**:
- The time entries are noted in a 24-hour format, with several entries showing times like "13.55," "14.04," "14.10," and "14.20."
- There are also numerical values, possibly measurements or scores, next to some of the time entries.
- A heart shape, drawn in red ink, surrounds a specific entry, which includes a handwritten character that appears to be in a different script or language.

2. **Visible Features**:
- The page has a grid-like structure, with columns and rows clearly defined.
- There are check marks next to some entries, indicating completion or approval.
- Additional handwritten notes or symbols appear in the margins, including what looks like a signature or initials.

3. **Setting and Context**:
- The background is plain and slightly blurred, suggesting that the focus is on the notebook page itself.
- There are no identifiable objects or people in the image, making it difficult to ascertain the setting beyond the notebook.

Overall, the image captures a detailed account of time-related data, with a personal touch indicated by the heart drawing. The use of different scripts and symbols adds a layer of complexity to the content, but the overall focus remains on the structured entries within the notebook.

3:00 PM

I use a L E

Very simple.

I told my bank to change

I don't mind if someone copies my signature.

3:00 PM (b)

They're clearing out our pool every six months.

I haven't used the pool in 10–15 years.

It's mostly decorative.

***

I have to go to work soon.

I think I should redo the articles.

They're expediting it, like in Tropico, where a visiting leader temporarily increases a building's productivity.

3:15 PM

When President Putin visits a factory, he takes a leadership role, and I appreciate how he focuses on restoring operations.

Trump also does that

3:15 PM (b)

I'm returning Water's Edge to Sumal.

3:15 PM (c)

I strongly dislike ██████████.

I believe █████ should ensure that people who tried to ████████████████████ are held accountable.

I think ████████████████ should be subject to the same ███████████████████ as others, given how critical I find their coverage.

I want measures to prevent ███████████████ from being brought in, similar to past shoe-throwing incidents.

3:15 PM (d)

I believe Al Jazeera has not met the standards I expect of a news organisation.

I find their work disappointing.

Ranil was confronted during the event.

JR established an Israeli embassy; I view that as a political gesture.

I will ██████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████while I am involved.

I do not feel obliged to answer questions, and anyone who breaks the law may face police investigation.

If you knew the names of some well-known journalists in Singapore, you might judge their practices critically; I believe some standards there fall short.

People should not telling lies when knowing it's untrue

Actual malice isn't the same, as reporting things harmlessly..

3:15 PM (e)

JR's nephew is Ranil.

3:45 PM

Isn't president Emmanuel Macron just such a very handsome man? He really is, isn't he? A very good-looking guy.

4:00 PM

I will seek justice, because my office will run the attorney general's office, and we'll prosecute those who break the law.

4:00 PM (b)

I will ensure accountability.

The image depicts a tree trunk with a heart-shaped carving. Inside the heart, the names "Pauline" and "Lehan" are inscribed, with a small heart symbol above the name "Pauline" and a plus sign (+) between the two names. The carving appears to be made with a light-colored tool, contrasting against the dark, textured bark of the tree.

The background features a blurred view of a park-like setting with green foliage and trees, suggesting a natural environment. The sunlight filters through the leaves, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. The focus remains on the tree trunk and the carving, while the background remains soft and out of focus.

At the bottom of the image, there is a subtitle that reads, "And every angle has its merit." This text is displayed in white and is positioned centrally at the bottom of the image, contrasting with the darker colors of the tree and the background.

Overall, the image captures a moment of personal expression carved into nature, set against a serene outdoor backdrop.

[Verse 1]

So you're leaving..

The image features a young boy standing outdoors, engaged in conversation. He has short, dark hair and is wearing a gray polo shirt with horizontal stripes in various shades of blue and a collar. The shirt appears slightly loose-fitting. His expression is animated, suggesting he is speaking with enthusiasm or assertiveness.

In the background, there is a lush garden with various green plants and some flowering bushes, indicating a well-maintained outdoor space. A brick wall is partially visible, providing a rustic backdrop. To the right of the boy, there is a light-colored planter or pot, which appears to contain a small plant. Next to it, there are colorful plastic balls, possibly used for play, and a green storage container, which is also plastic.

The boy is gesturing with his right hand, pointing, while his left hand is at his side. The scene captures a moment of dialogue, with the boy seemingly responding to an adult, though the adult's presence is not fully visible in the frame.

The text displayed at the bottom of the image reads: "Hey, you said 'ass.' Yeah, but it's okay." This suggests a light-hearted or humorous exchange, but the context of the conversation is not fully clear from the image alone.

Overall, the setting appears to be a residential area, likely a backyard or garden, characterized by a casual and relaxed atmosphere. The focus is on the boy's interaction, with the vibrant greenery enhancing the outdoor feel of the scene.

8:45 PM

I remember reading my dad's copy of How to Think Big and Kick Ass. I was only about 10 or 11. I found it on a bookshelf near the CCTV monitors and the title just seemed striking. I had no idea who Donald Trump was then; I was a small kid. The provocative language in the title caught my attention and I began using that word myself. I remember going to the Vijitha Yapa bookshop and seeing a book called The Singapore Story, going from third world to first, which reminded me of holidays to Singapore. Back then I did not know who Lee Kuan Yew was. If you ask Ken Soh, who saw me carry those hefty books for Lee Hsien Loong to sign, they were very old editions I picked up as a teenager. Those books helped shape my early thinking, especially the ideas associated with Trump. When I find myself in trouble or need a solution, I try to think big and consider the whole picture, which helps me understand business and the economy better.

I used to describe myself confidently, comparing myself to Kai Trump.

I liked Trump's book and I patterned my diary on Art of the Deal.
