I've been proudly going round telling people that I've eaten roasted pigeon!! looks good right? i couldn't find roast goose though. Credits go to Chu Wen and Kin Sing for being so persistent in wanting to eat roasted pigeon. haha. Even though we were very very full from breakfast, how could we resist the lure of roasted pigeon?
Before that, we were just two cafes down the street eating breakfast. It consisted of soya bean milk, onion biscuit, siew mai, har gao, smelly tofu, zha jiang wan ton noodles, and soya bean (salty) [shown below]
But i've had enough of eating for now.. and shopping. =D
That's the place i spent the most time in when i was in hong kong.. The Hong Kong Convention centre.. I learnt alot of things that about occupational therapy from all the talks and the posters and also about myself while shopping with my friends. =( sighs
seriously, sarah needs to do more reflecting..
on a brighter note, finally saw penguin and talked to yh.. =D
REBECCA LIOW!! i took this photo for you. haha. and for myself too. Don't think constance and Jessica will mind having their photo posted. hee.
Had a nice long(well, quite long) talk with simon on the way back. Guess we both felt the same way.. everyone has scattered, and the feeling of closeness, the intimacy that we all felt in those 12 days will never come back again. I was wondering, how is it that we had so much to say to each other during those 12 days and then now, there's not much left to be said. Busy busy.. everyone is just busy. I hate it when people waltz in & out of my life. Don't you? friends that used to be there and you used to be so chummy, then when there's no proper reason to meet anymore, they start vanishing one by one. Even becca liow, I don't get to talk to you very often in school.
Don't worry simon.. i'm not emo-ing. just thinking:)
Uncle hong is missing in the picture. I'm supposed to be doing my couselling report, but ya, you get the point. There's supposed to be mission team reunion this wednesday but somehow, i feel more like staying at home. Staying at home time can be very very precious indeed. Especially knowing that next term is coming with full force. And somehow with Jia min not going to be there and rebecca feeling only like turning up after the dinner, kinda adds on to the oh-how-i-feel-like-staying-at-home.
on a brighter note, i think youth retreat was pretty great. =) seeing everybody, having the time to sit at the beach with waves crashing(yea, singapore waves don't crash, they just lap the shores) and look at the pretty sky while spending time with God...
God blessed us by keeping all of us dry. I barely slept on friday night, which now seems pretty silly cause i woke up every 20 minutes or so thinking that it was going to rain and all my saltshakers were gonna get wet. There was most of the time dark clouds hovering above us, but amazingly the clouds held on.
oh and the funny highlight was the captain's cabbage. pieces of cabbage flew around and finally, it hit me on the nose. Apparently, it's funny. haha. I think so too. To add on, everyone was hooked onto traffic light as illustrated in the picture above. I'm glad i had the time to talk to ian and gavin this time. To see sean, tab, liru, mq, nicole, daryl, bra, my sis, uncle hong, ian, gavin and char playing together was kinda heart warming.
This weekend, it's my turn to MIA and leave jie with the saltshakers. frowns. hope things will turn out fine. Love keeps no record of wrongs.
i feel much much better now...irony was cause i was typing an email on why God puts trials and problems in our lives, and there after i complained and sat in my own heap of self-pity. irony.
shows what little faith i have and how I put God up in the throne room frowning on me as i struggle through the day. Funny how is it at 4 am i feel a lot better than when it was say 2am.
folding boxes did help abit. give me some credit for folding 14 pieces of paper/cardboard. supposed to fold a total of 20 boxes. oh well. seriously, it's beyond me.
i still have stuff i haven't done. But being able to sit here and do something is better than alot of things. welcome back sarah darling.
Daddy God, give me strength to last through the rest of today. sorry for being such a worry wart and grouser.
today i feel like a little superhero girl trying to save the world. but i can't. sarah, please remember to ring the scotch-tape tmr, please remember to bring the scissors tmr, remember to wear pyjamas.. remember to type out and print all the stuff for the youth retreat. oh while you're at it, try and finish your report.. remember to book driving lessons from the instructor that's always too busy for you.. remember to pray for everybody. sarah, please be reminded that you are meeting someone tmr, before that, make a trip to get something, after that, you've got to meet someone else.. oh ya, don't forget, the tent is still hanging dry in church, need to go keep it.. sarah sarah sarah sarah. please strike off all the days on your calendar.. they are taken up by someone else other than you. you've got plenty of things to do, get cracking. what are you doing.. why are you still here. sarah sarah sarah sarah...
irony. before i forget, sarah, remember to remind yourself to msg tab to bring the other tent on friday. and you did forget.. to message everyone to come at 9.30 on friday. WHY are you so disorganised. they will be oh so disappointed in you. sarah think.. think hard, what did you forget again?
oh, did i ever tell you that i'm 66% schizophrenic who happens to have insight.
irony. give me time and i'll try to make things fine. or are you going to take that away from me too?
Egg price went up by 1 cent. oh my. It's almost as important as oil prices going up by the dollars.
Anyway, that was just a side track. Mummy and sis came back from HK. i was going to say i survived the week without them, but then again, looking at the pile of laundry and ironing, i have my doubts. It was a long week, kinda torturous and it's over. But, on a brighter note, liru and mq came over to stay. i was well fed when the two of them whipped up a scrumptous meal for me. And my complexion is slightly better thanks to the amount of vege(esp carrots and cherry tomatoes) i consumed over these few days and the water i've been drinking.

Although the fig tree shall not blossom
neither shall fruit be in the vines;
the labour of the olive shall fail, and the fields shall yield no meat;
the flock shall be cut off from the fold,
and there shall be no herd in the stalls:
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will rejoice in the God of my salvation.
Habakkuk 3:17-18
This lullaby is only a few words
A simple run of chords
Quiet here in this spare room
But you can hear it, hear it
Wherever you may go
I will let you down
But this lullaby plays on
