The haze is back with a vengeance. :(
The PSI readings were hovering around the mid 100s (Unhealthy range) during the day on 24 September 2015. However, from 5pm onwards, it took a turn for the worse and the PSI readings hit 200 and above (Very Unhealthy range). The PSI readings steadily increased and crossed over to above 300 (Hazardous range) by 7pm.
During the 9pm news, MOE announced that all primary and secondary schools will be closed on Friday 25 September 2015, including MOE kindergartens and special education schools. It is expected that the PSI readings for 25 September is likely to be in the Very Unhealthy range with the possibility of crossing into the Hazardous range.
My girls are really happy until they realised that there is going to be e-learning in place of going to school. Lol. Sorry, girls. No free "holiday".
I salute all the teachers who have been calling up students and parents to inform them of the school closure on 25 September in case they missed the news on the media and social media.
I also salute all the teachers who still have to go to school to supervise the students who would be going to school if their parents cannot find alternative care arrangements.
To everyone I know, please take great care!
making it easier to keep in touch with family and friends

Closure
During noon, I attended my friend's father's funeral service at the Mandai Crematorium. The funeral service was a beautiful one and it gave closure to many people.
As I looked at my friend, I can't help but wonder what will I do if I am in his position. Although my parents have said that (touchwood!) if anything happens to them while overseas, please just cremate them. It is a lot easier to bring back the ashes and if I want to show my filial piety, it would have been while they are living and not when they are dead. Yes, that's my parents for you, very practical people. However, I may have closure but I am not sure if others would have closure if I do follow my parents' after death orders/ requests, namely my brother and his family who are in UK and the tons of friends they have in Singapore (and to a lesser extent, my parents' family who are in Taiwan and Malaysia).

Inception Decoded
Finally, someone figured out the ending of Inception! Since Inception was shown in the cinema in 2010, the ambiguous ending always had me guessing if Leonardo DiCaprio was still in his dream or he was in reality. But it is precisely this ending that has endeared the movie to me, ok, other than the fact that Leonardo DiCaprio is the main lead. :P
If you haven't watched Inception before and would like to watch it one day, please do not proceed to watch the below video. If you want to figure out the ending for yourself, please do not proceed to watch the below video. If you want CLOSURE like I did, please proceed to watch the below video. :) Oh the video is in French, so remember to turn on the English caption/ subtitles.

After 3 long years and watching Inception a number of times, I finally know the truth and I finally have my closure. :) Don't worry, Inception remains one of my favourite movies with all the thinking, predicting and guessing I had to do. No movie has ever made me think so hard lol.
