::Bird.

Went out to bike. Correction: Tried to go out to bike. Unfortunately it rained nonstop. So we were stranded at some void deck taking care of a wet injured bird. Some guy had pushed it into the drain and being the busybodies that we are, we opened the drain cover and pulled it out so that it wouldn't drown when the rain got heavy, and brought it to the void deck. Unfortunately for it, there was a cat there. So we watched the bird and some guy chased the cat away (strangely, he was the same guy who had pushed the bird in the drain). I have no idea whether the guy was trying to be kind or what, but he didn't speak much English and all attempts to communicate with him proved fruitless. At last he said, "You bring it to your side lah" and went off. When we got sick of sitting in the void deck and decided to brave the rain home, we couldn't bring it with us because parents were concerned about bird flu so we put up some kind of cardboard barrier around it to block off the wind. Guess the cats must have got at it by now, but too bad, no choice.

Damn lucky that we decided to brave the rain home cuz it continued for the rest of the day.

Later I found out that the rain had caused flooding in some parts and the water was fucking deep. Wah, damn lucky we were at some void deck, man.
